A method and associated aid for training visual skills associated with a selected activity. The method is grounded upon a theory which involves a first concept referred to as a “planes of reference box” and a second concept referred to as a “momentum triangle”. The method involves mounting to a head of a wearer a transparent viewing surface through which the wearer observes his or her environment. The transparent viewing surface has activity specific balance reference indicia from the planes of reference box and activity specific momentum reference indicia from the momentum triangle.
