Workshops
Movement Foundations: Level 1 - Assessment & Corrective Strategies
This course will explore current concepts in movement and exercise science, with a focus on improving movement efficiency and building resilience. Starting with relevant physiology and principles governing human movement, this seminar will explore basic postural control, the interconnectedness of various organ systems, and their influence on the production of efficient movement strategies. The workshop will then build on these concepts and work towards improving and reinforcing fundamental movement patterns. Attendees will go home with deeper understanding of human movement, increased observational acuity, and a larger toolbox to implement with patients and clients the following day.
*Due to the hands on and practical nature of this course, participants are expected dress appropriately and to be prepared for exercise. Coffee and healthy snacks will be available. Lunch will not be provided.
