In Japanese Archery, the word “Yurumi” refers to is one of three serious bad habits.
The cause of “Yurumi” is not clear and it can not be easily corrected. Furthermore, this weakness is very difficult to improve only by physical training. Therefore, SAT counseling was carried out for high school archer who had presented with “Yurumi”.
The SAT counseling focuses on not only the psychological function but also the physical function. In four months, we conducted three times of counseling and one follow-up interview for the high school student. As a result, mental health and “Yurumi” of the archer were improved greatly. Therefore, SAT counseling was proved to be effective in correcting “Yurumi” of the Japanese Archers.
