I could use some help with clear terms for the student..

Not to steal the thread, (very thought provoking!). To offer incite to the question: "help with terms to use with students". I ask early on what other action sports the student participates in. For instance: If the student golfs, I reference the "cleansing breath" idea that golfers take just before hitting a tee shot which helps with relaxation and focus. I have the student perform this on straight sections of the track to help with tension on track. an example of instruction for a student (at the beginning of a straightaway):
"OK, check your mirrors, gauges, flag stations, take a big breath and let it out"
Any association with other activities that you have in common to the driver student can help drive home a manipulative action or an idea you would like to get across.
