Systematic Cueing Technique: Objectives
The most important skill you will have as a teacher is your ability to communicate
clearly what you want in order for your participants to achieve their goals. The
ability of our clients to succeed is our responsibility. Through our ability to teach
and inspire our students they will gain knowledge and understanding of their own
body. To help you organize your thoughts and teach the best class or workshop
possible, we will use the systematic cueing technique.
Objectives
•Develop a systematic technique for coaching and cueing exercise technique
that help your clients and class participants get more from every exercise you
teach.
•Learn how you can advance your coaching and cueing skills to assist your
clients in achieving their goals.
Communication is…
more than words. It is the combination of all your skills to be aware of what is the
most important thing to say in the specific situation, at the right time, with the
right tone of voice and body language with consideration to the individual
receiving this communication.

Cueing Types
1. Visual Cues
Demonstration model - initially people learn by seeing
Role model and gesture are effective in learning a new skill
As skill development improves the ability to sense, feel and translate information
into action increases
2. Verbal Cues
Relaying auditory information to the client
The effectiveness of what you say requires a great deal of skill and practice.
Avoid negative words (don’t), eliminate fillers (um) and condescending language
(right)
3. Kinesthetic Cues
Tactile or physical cues
Guiding or directing a movement through a physical guide
Always cue the foundation first. Then follow with alignment cues that start from the
foundation.
Step 2: Movement
What will remain stable and what will move?
As you cue the movement, keep students awareness of the foundation. Move
sequentially through the body.
Step 3: Breath
2
Link the breath with the movement.
Step 4: Creativity
How many ways can you describe the experiences using as many sensory cues as
possible?
Observe your participants and determine whether your cues are working and
whether you need to rephrase or give more detail.
Step 5: Assistance
In what ways can you assist them to find the awareness in their own body?
1. Foundation/ Alignment
2. Movement
3. Breath
Squat
Plank
Stationary lunges
