At Diamondawgs we strive to engage our athletes as an active part of the learning process by providing them with detailed information about the skill or movement being executed. The athlete then develops the knowledge to self-monitor and make the necessary adjustments rather than relying external feedback for each repetition. We understand that athletes must get to the point where they can feel their mistakes in order to correct them.
