About this listen

"An exceptional resource for PE teachers, coaches, and parents. This book expertly blends the art and science of movement development in a practical, usable format to help beginners thru advanced athletes."

Andy Stone Wrestling Coach and P.E. Teacher.

"Makes no difference Willand is an ocean away from Elizabeth Public Schools. Some things just go better with an English accent- and James Marshall taught me Physical Literacy may be one of them.
His professional development transcends language and culture and can be applied anywhere & in every environment. As soon as he begins speaking, you can tell he’s someone who loves what he does and continues to be a real student of the profession. That same passion transfers over to his writings.
Forget the trendy gimmicks or equipment. He provides plenty of print materials backed up with video and simple, clear instruction that will continue giving for years to come. I’m fortunate our paths crossed & had the opportunity to collaborate with James. Can’t wait for more."

Joe Przytula, Supervisor of Physical Education Health and Safety; Elizabeth NJ USA Public Schools.

"I met James in 2004 when I was at the start of my journey to become an athlete. James was not just a coach, he was my mentor and has since become a good friend. He developed me physically and mentally to thrive as a professional rugby player but also had a genuine interest in my health and wellbeing.
Without his expertise and knowledge in strength and conditioning, I'm not sure I would have had the career that I did. He was there on the sidelines when I got my first cap for England and followed me through the highs and lows of my career thereafter. I owe this man a lot and I don't think he fully realises the impact that he had on me.
Since becoming a parent to twins two years ago I now fully appreciate the difficulties around juggling working life and how your priorities change, but it felt like James always made time for me which I will always be grateful for."

Georgie Gulliver, England Rugby Scrum Half and Ivybridge RFC head coach.

"It is an appropriate time for all parents, teachers, coaches and decision-makers in education and sport to question their assumptions in the light of the unique stressors that these adults have created for the younger generations to navigate on their journey to adulthood.

It has been said that the journeys to physical and emotional well-being and to progression in performance in competitive games are cut from the same cloth. Unfortunately, while the former is seldom seen at the centre of things for the decision-makers the latter has been conflicted and confused by the untoward desires of adults.

Start where the child is now, not where a model says they should be.” James Marshall

James and his unique band of brothers and sisters are known for their healthy scepticism of the limitations of some modern-day research and have appropriately coupled ‘practice-based evidence’ to their decision-making and delivery.

Take advantage of this sharing that epitomises James’s willingness to support others along their teaching and coaching journeys.
Kelvin Giles

James Marshall is an experienced sports coach, educator, and accomplished athlete.
In a series of essays written over the last decade, he lays out a landscape of practical advice for sports coaches, physical education teachers and interested parents, that puts children first.

Ranging from useful advice on session planning, fitness testing and athlete motivation to critical thinking, and thought-provoking essays on why perceived wisdom may not be so wise.
This book is ideal for those setting out on a coaching journey, as well as experienced teachers and coaches who feel that something is 'wrong' with their system and are looking for guidance on how to improve their children's experiences.
