Build Your Career on Solid Ground

Learn the Key Scientific Principles of Functional Movement

Gain Knowledge the Top Therapists and Trainers Want to Keep to Themselves

In movement professions such as physical therapy, personal training, athletic training, and many others, how we are traditionally taught has created a significant gap in our understanding when we see how the body actually moves. Foundations will bridge that gap and enhance your ability to individualize care in performance, rehabilitation, and prevention. Using story, scientific principles, and applications that can be immediately embedded into your work, Foundations will help you understand the structure and system of the three sciences that impact human movement and provide you with the information you need to apply it in real life and function. With this understanding, you'll gain the confidence you desire and the results you've always wanted for those in your care.

The course delivers practical, useful tools, techniques, and training on topics such as Chain Reaction® biomechanics, joints, real versus relative motion, the effects of gravity, ground reaction force, mass & momentum, muscles, proprioceptors, and so much more. We'll also show you how to apply that knowledge in treatment, training, and performance. Foundations is an excellent resource for people at all levels of experience, from those just beginning their careers to the most advanced movement professionals.
