Movement Optimization for Prehab & Performance
LIVE CERTIFICATIONS FOR TRAINERS AND THERAPISTS
Certification
Movement Optimization
As a trainer or therapist, how do you bridge the gap between injury and performance?
The Movement Optimization Certification provides you with the tools to assess functional and biomechanical deficits related to injuries. It establishes a theoretical and strategic framework for applying the principles of periodization to design structured rehabilitation programs that maximize healing while optimizing performance.
The certification includes 15 hours of online preparatory work and a 2-day live practical internship that includes case studies and practical group workshops.
ONLINE PRE-COURSE WORK
MOVEMENT OPTIMIZATION LEVEL 1 AND LEVEL 2
The Level 1 online pre-course work will provide you with principles to effectively assess and establish the fundamentals of movement: mobility, stability/motor control, patterning and sequencing.
The Level 2 online pre-course work focuses on rehab periodization to effectively create adaptation, manage load, drive progress, and maximize performance while still protecting the injury. Common injuries such as rotator cuff and patellofemoral tendinopathy, hip impingement and low back pain are extensively covered.
Our online courses are supported by in-depth video content to provide you with a captivating and complete learning experience. The online training is a lifetime access and can be completed at your own pace but must be entirely validated before the 2-day live practical internship.
2-DAY PRACTICAL INTERNSHIP
LIVE INTERNSHIP
The 2-day live internship allows you to put theory into practice by applying training methods within the rehab context.
With the help of group assessments, case studies and rehab program design, the internship ensures you leave the certification with know-how to apply immediately.
The internship also prepares you for your Specialist exam and allows you to obtain your certification and Specialist badge.
