In this week's episode we welcome on Dean Kriellaars from the College of Rehabilitation Sciences at the University of Manitoba. We talk with Dean about Physical Literacy and his work in this field. This is quite the episode exploring physical literacy and everything that it goes into. We talk about what physical literacy is, how we inspire people to move, physical literacy enhanced design, and the connection of creativity, risk, pressure and confidence on physical literacy. We also explore confidence eroding language and activities and discuss some ways to change them to be more appropriate for each mover. There is a lot we can take away as sports coaches and practitioners from this episode and we hope everyone enjoys!
Dean has a lot of resources out there on physical literacy but provided the pdfs or citations to some that dive into our discussion and physically literacy more in depth. Check those out in our guest resources drive under the Dean Kriellaars folder (https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1yeWqDu8Ano2YmkIEyg7EbcxfuB3ZtzUd?usp=sharing).
