Awesome lessons

I very much like the idea of that experiment. Some comments (I hope I won't sound "negative", just writing down my thoughts as I watch, hopefully constructive criticism if any): I think that the first 30 minutes were probably a bit too vague. I'm not one of the trainees, but I don't think I would have understood/gained much from that part. I think the whole discussion/comments around the bidirectional pin (and the compound attack later on) was excellent. The "material advantage" too, especially since you had talked about it earlier. The puzzle was very good too. The followup discussion… was nice because it described your thinking, but… that might have been a bit much for this session. Once again, if I were a student I'm not sure what I'd have gotten from it. I think a "summary" at the end might be useful as "take home message" for the students (a few key concepts, e.g., bidirectional pin, material advantage) All in all, very nice material, but maybe a bit too much for one session for the trainees? (I tend to prefer more "focused" learning when I'm in their position… but they might be comfortable with that rhythm, so 🤷🏻‍♂).

Thank you so much for the honest feedback! I appreciate all sorts of comments that can help the videos, being also very aware that I'm not a professional youtuber or coach either :) I agree with you that the first part was a bit confusing, probably also because I didn't have any slide/text in the video and my words are not very fluid. From the next lesson I plan to focus on a specific theme/idea each time so that it's easier for both the trainees and the audience to follow my thoughts. I have to say that I'm also a bit confused by their level, I expected very beginners but they play already pretty well! So I wasn't sure if I had to start from the very basics or move on to explain some more nuanced concepts. But I'll be more prepared next time hopefully :) Thanks again!!

@@FrascoAdAbstra Having a more focused "topic" for a session (like you do in some of your pedagogical videos) can definitely help, but indeed in a first session with unclear level, that's difficult! I'm not even sure that the level will be "homogeneous"… Anyway, for a "session 0" it still seemed pretty nice (not sure if the students did give you explicit feedback, but they seemed very happy in the video 😉) and I'm sure it will be easier to adjust with time!
