S3 Episode 30: The Dance of Coaching with Gary Crotaz

One of the chapters in The Human Behind The Coach is The Dance of Coaching. What does that mean? What is dancing in the moment? Today Claire is in conversation with coach and former professional dancer Dr Gary Crotaz. Hear Gary’s story on The Unlock Moment. Here we talk about partner dancing, connection and flow in coaching.

 

Some questions we are taking away: 

• What are the 5 points of connection in coaching?
• What are contortions in coaching?

Takeaways

• Coaching and dancing both require a deep sense of connection, balance, and movement.
• In coaching, it is important to be present and in flow with the other person, just like in dancing.
• Coaching is not about following a rigid script or technique, but about engaging in natural and meaningful conversation.
• The most powerful coaching conversations occur when there is a deep sense of connection and partnership.
• Coaches should focus on simplicity and responding to the other person, rather than trying to apply complex techniques.
• Both coaching and dancing require time and practice to develop the necessary skills and refine the art.
