Good Jibes #180: Ron Rosenberg on Learning To Sail Together
What a fun episode! This week we chat with Ron Rosenberg about learning to sail with family and friends, and his lifetime of coaching sailing. Ron has won five world titles, two 5.5 Meter Class Gold Cups, one European championship, and more than 50 national titles, and has competed in Olympic trials, been team captain and/or coached in almost every Olympics since 1984.
Tune in as Ron shares with Good Jibes host John Arndt the moments that changed the trajectory of his sailing career, why sailing is a master class in self-improvement, how to become a sailing coach or hire a sailing coach, his sailing success with the J/Pod fleet of J/70s in the Pacific NW and coaching concept others can replicate, and how to help people create healthy habits on the water.
