COURSE DESCRIPTION FULL COURSE:

PROPRIOCEPTION & AWARENESS – July 25-26th

Proprioception: The physiology that controls an articulation depends on numerous control mechanisms located in the muscle tendons, ligaments and articular capsule. Therefore, it is advisable to train these “micro-computers”to increase or revive control of a joint. Following a sprain, to treat arthrosis, to recover articular mobility, and to improve efficiency of movement, these various aspects of proprioception must be trained. ‍“However, this work must be very precise. Because it is not the joint that is trained as a whole but a specific ligament or part of the capsule within that joint.”
In this course you will learn hundreds of exercises to use throughout the body for proprioceptive work.

Awareness: How can an articulation be trained, a muscle strengthened, or a posture corrected, if the brain does not know the area being treated? How does a spine remain straight, if the feeling of being straight is skewed? The cortex must be trained to become acquainted with and recognize every area of the body. A strict methodology involving four progression factors is indispensable to really becoming familiar with the pelvis; the cervical, thoracic and lumbar spine; and the various diaphragms.
You will learn how to apply the very important and often neglected aspect of awareness in your daily practice.

 

GLOBAL POSTURAL STRETCHING – July 27-28th

Global postural stretching is a form of stretching that aims to improve overall posture and flexibility by targeting multiple muscle groups simultaneously. Unlike traditional static stretching, which typically focuses on stretching one muscle or muscle group at a time, global postural stretching involves dynamic movements that engage multiple muscles and joints in a coordinated manner.

The primary goal of global postural stretching is to restore balance and alignment to the body by addressing muscle imbalances and tension that can lead to poor posture and movement patterns. By targeting muscles and connective tissues throughout the body, global postural stretching helps improve overall flexibility, mobility, and postural alignment.

This approach is often used in rehabilitation and corrective exercise programs to address postural issues, reduce pain, and improve functional movement patterns. It may involve a series of dynamic stretching exercises performed in a specific sequence to target key areas of the body associated with postural alignment and movement.

Whatever your methods of preseason conditioning, training, or re-education, it is necessary to place the body part being solicited, into a global posture. The rediscover the efficient and fluidity of a movement, the GPS allows a perfect linking between the joint, the muscle and their fasciae. These specific postures must be meticulously performed and are adapted to each part of the body. The positions can be used in training and conditioning as well as in pre-season training. They are equally of indubitable efficiency for all re-education programs. For example, after an accident and illness, a therapeutic treatment must be completed by a rehabilitation of all activities of daily life; in the personal life; the sporting life; and the professional life.
