Remote Coaching 
 

So what exactly is "Remote Coaching"?

Remote Coaching is a facility that enables you the athlete to stay in contact with a Coach from Parallel Dreams Coaching to further develop your action plans, goal setting and work together to achieve your goals.  You can buy credits to use with the different Coaching Communication Packages and keep that development going towards reaching your goals no matter where you or your Coach are.


 

Why do I need a Remote Coaching Space?

This is your online filing cabinet and the portal we use to link our coaches with you. The Coach has shared access to non personal areas of your "Remote" Coaching Space and this is where you will communicate and share ideas and resources.  It is also your access area to All the PDC Resources (Video Library, Document Library,  Industry News and much more).  When you join one of our "Face to Face" courses your action planning can also be added in here and add to your development programme.

 

How do you Subscribe?

Firstly you subscribe to PD "Remote" Coaching by clicking here

This costs £25 for an Annual Subscription but we are offering it free (for a limited time) when you buy your first 50 credits.  When payment is received by the office the admin team will set up your Online "Remote" Coaching Space and send you your login details. Once you have these go on and have a look around, complete your details and start your planning towards achieving those goals however large or small.  You may not want to set fancy goals, simple and specific are often the most successful.

PD Coaching Drills - Video Library 

 

The all NEW PD Coaching Video Library with Coaching Drills and Movies is now live and available to anyone who is subscribed to our annual remote coaching  package. 

 

PD Video Library   

 

The screenshot above shows an example of what the Video Library is like. Drills are the main focus of the library and these are accessed via the categories listed on the left hand tool bar such as "Balancing", "Carving" etc. Over the next few months we will add one or two new categories and lots more drills. However there are already lots of drills there and each video clip lasts about 30-40 seconds and shows the drill being performed at normal speed and in slow motion. There are also some text cues added as well as a detailed description about where to perform the drill & why the drill is useful. You can see the full description by moving your mouse over the text.

 

Finally we have a couple of extra categories; PDC Movies and Interski Movies. The PD Coaching Movies cover topics like "Beginner to Parallel" and "Carving" while the Interski Movies show some edited compilations of individual countries performances at the Interski Congress in St. Anton 2011. 

 

NB: Please note that the Parallel Dreams Vault (PD Vault) will be discontinued and taken off line on the 25th of July. The new facilities provided via the remote coaching subscription will replace the PD Vault and offer YOU a much more comprehensive resource facility through the training diary, documents library and Video Library. So if you are currently subscribed to the PD Vault you now need to sign up to our remote coaching service.

 


We hope that you are as excited as we are about this unique new combination of services from Parallel Dreams Coaching. Please browse the new site and if you have any questions or feedback please get in touch.

Derek Tate,
