About the Course..
This course provides a unique view into common movement patterns of the lower extremity that are an integral part of both everyday and sport activity. These movement patterns are evident across all populations regardless of age and ability. Often patients develop dysfunction and compensatory patterns that alter these basic movements. Attendees learned how to properly assess and retrain lower extremity movement patterns, as well as how to apply them to training patients for return to functional activity. Participants will gain knowledge of how to decrease risk for injury of the lower extremity and additionally improve functional performance. The course will provide an interactive learning atmosphere utilizing didactic lecture, but predominantly focusing on lab demonstration and active participation. Corrective strategies will emphasize exercise progressions and regressions to create a tailored approach to fit each patient’s needs. Participants with either limited or advanced experience with movement patterns will learn techniques that can be immediately applied to their clinical practice.
Who Attended? Physical Therapists, Physical Therapists Assistants, Athletic Trainers, Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist (CSCS)

Testimonials
"
I thoroughly enjoyed the balance between lecture and lab in today's seminar. The lab provided a good opportunity to learn different ways to assess patient movement and provide alternative methods to getting patients back to Previous Level Of Function. Jennifer was a very good speaker who is certainly knowledgeable with regards to her craft. I would certainly like to attend one of her other lectures in the near future.
