Two things this made me think of that may be relevant:
Standard Jiu Jitsu—It’s a very interesting Jiu Jitsu training program that doesn’t use any drilling of moves. Instead, it looks at much smaller skills that make up various moves, then creates games where one player tries to execute the result of that skill (e.g, separating the arm from the body) while the other player tries to avoid that. This is very effective because it gives you immediate feedback on what actually works for each step of the move. They say this approach is science based, but I haven’t yet found which science they’re referring to here.
Accelerated Expertise—A breakdown of some of the most effective teaching programs in the military and business. They go through the process of doing detailed Cognitive Task Analyses on experts, then, rather than teaching those CTAs, they instead create simulations that force people to learn the skills needed from the CTA, while rarely teaching them directly.
Both of these add a couple of steps that aren’t in your program, that I would recommend could be:
This is cool!

Break down the larger skill into smaller skills extracted from someone already good at them, using Cognitive Task Analysis, the Experiential array, Business Process Modelling, or other frameworks.
Create exercises specifically tailored to train those skills, so that the feedback loop is way more effective.
