It's just like riding a bike.

Written by Cole Schafer

Anytime we are learning a new skill, we are developing tactic knowledge.Tactic knowledge must be learned through tactile experience rather than traditional education. You don't teach a child how to ride a bike. You show them. This is also true for walking, swimming, catching a baseball and playing a musical instrument. While a child less than a year old is illiterate, it's comical to think about a parent trying to teach their offspring how to walk by cracking open a book and pointing at a chalkboard. It's something that must be learned but can't necessarily be taught. This requires a great deal of time, energy and focus. However, once tactic knowledge is embedded in our brains and bodies, we no longer have to think about it. We don't think about walking. We don't think about swimming. We don't think about riding a bike. This is the tremendous beauty in tactic knowledge. It's intertwines itself into our flesh.
