METHODOLOGY

 

In the indoor skate park DÄIBÄI we follow a series of criteria and lines around the teaching of skateboarding to work and guarantee these aspects that are important to us. After years of work experience and training, we have defined the objectives of our work and as a result of this reflection we have developed our work methodology to be able to provide a quality service to people with any level and capacity.

In our courses and skateboarding sessions we work transversal competences giving special importance to learning related to the following aspects:

FRIENDSHIP

TEAMWORK

In our skateboard school the sessions are organized according to the following structure:

Between 1H - 1.5H and 8 students for each teacher.
We use the first 15' of the session to work on psychomotor skills in a group, warm up the body and greet each other. In it, dynamic movements closely related to skateboarding are practiced in order to work on physical abilities (balance, resistance, jumping power, coordination) through repetition and imitation. In addition, the idea is that the circle format facilitates interaction between boys and girls, a moment that offers us a great opportunity to share thoughts and ideas.
The use of protections is one of the most important learning to work. For this, each session has a special moment that we call protection circuit. In this case, the students follow in a group a dynamic series of exercises for the use of knee pads, elbows and helmet around the skatepark. Getting used to these movements helps a lot to avoid or avoid jumps and subsequent accidents. Thus, we work on the prevention of injuries or accidents.
Being the core of the session, in this part we divide the group of students into small and staggered groups of 8 students in order to offer the most appropriate and personalized service possible. These small groups move in a coordinated way through the different areas of the skatepark so that they try different exercises in each session.
Throughout our courses we use games and dynamics designed to discover the first steps around skateboarding in a stimulating and fun way. Believing that this makes the class format a little more fun, we seek to encourage the playful aspect in students while favoring the internalization of the content taught.
In the last minutes of the session we reserve a moment for the students for free play. We believe that this moment is vital for them to relate to each other as individuals and be a moment guided by their will.
