Why should I take this course?

As a movement professional, having a strong command over functional anatomy and biomechanics is crucial in guiding individuals effectively through their fitness journeys. It goes beyond just recognizing muscle names and locations; a deeper comprehension of how muscles synergize and adapt uniquely to each individual is paramount.

Every client is akin to a distinct puzzle, and with a profound understanding of anatomy, you can adeptly piece together their unique movements. Your upcoming exploration into anatomical studies will provide you with the confidence to educate and empower your clients effectively. Together, we are delving into the fundamental basics, unravelling the intricate marvels of the human body in motion.

Reviews

A great course to review all the anatomy I learnt in my initial training as a Pilates teacher. . Really good to go back and revisit anatomy with years of teaching under my belt and this course is presented so well, integrating anatomy knowledge into Pilates movement and as a result functional movement to help me help my clients better. All the of-course online courses I have done have felt like giving myself a treat....time to delve back into what I love! Thank you for making it all so accessible!
