\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tHow do I choose a course or plan?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/h4>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t

There are many things to consider to find out which course or plan is best for you!<\/p>

If you want to boost your skills, we recommend enrolling in a group course. These are structured in a way for you to learn all of the techniques and knowledge to reach a certain level, all the while providing regular meetings and assignments to get you going. Being in a group, you can also get additional insight from classmates and improve together.<\/p>

If you’re looking for a long-term improvement and support, our career coaching program would be best. In this program. You are paired with a coach and meet regularly for 6 months+, getting consistent feedback from an experienced coach who’s focused on helping you improve. This program is designed to follow you all through your cubing career, tracking your improvement and helping you quickly achieve your best cuber self.<\/p>

If your availability is limited and simply want a few pointers to jump start your cubing, we also offer completely custom coaching.<\/p>

For most students, online courses would be more appropriate. However, if you are in Montreal, we also offer these in person, offering the optimal interactive experience together with our teacher and classmates.<\/p>

Before enrolling, make sure to read the descriptions carefully, check the time of the courses, how often they are held as well as the registration time. Once chosen, you can use the registration form to register or request additional information.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tWhat's the difference between courses and coaching?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/h4>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t

Courses and teaching are complementary, and both key to strong improvement and bringing the most out of your cubing talent.<\/p>

Courses typically involve going in depth with content in a structured manner, spending most of the time directly teaching students each step of the way. Usually, courses are best suited to learning whole new methods or techniques, and making a leap from a specific large barrier.<\/p>

During coaching sessions, the coach recognizes the needs of the students, then provides appropriate resources and advice, letting the student do the majority of learning on their own. Coaching is best suited for continuous improvement and fine tuning of techniques to bring the most out of them.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tMy child is XXX years old. Are these courses appropriate for them?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/h4>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t

Our courses are open to children of all ages. In person courses are suitable for children for children as young as 6 years old without needing additional adult supervision. Young children usually understand concepts very quickly, and being exposed to three dimensional logic puzzles from a young age is very beneficial to develop reasoning and problem solving skills, dexterity, three dimensional perception and more. For online courses, we do recommend an adult be present for children under the age of 9 years old to help keep them focused and guide them through the steps of the course.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
