productive results

effectively

average driver and how to work with such dynamics
- Triggering a performance state of mind
- How to get into and stay in the “zone”
This program will be based upon and use the
same advanced training methods taught to Speed Secrets coaches
and law enforcement driver coaches. Classroom materials will be
reinforced with on-track exercises designed to establish
objectives, focus on key learning strategies and manage role
playing scenarios to practice effective instructing techniques.
Through this experience, participants will acquire the benefits
of those mental strategies that Speed Secrets uses to train
drivers and as a result they will: (a) become better drivers
themselves; and (b) and acquire new skills important to develop
a better understanding of how to coach driver/students.
By combining the Speed Secrets specialized
techniques together with BeaveRun’s proven driver training
exercises, participants will have a competitive edge unmatched
by other instructors. An added advantage is that the mental
techniques learned in this program extend well beyond driving
and will be beneficial in all of life’s high-stress situations. |
