Making Clinically Informed Movement Education Accessible
The Teaching Zone was created to share knowledge and practical experience with professionals working in sport, exercise, health and physical activity.
Drawing on years of experience in Sports Science, Sports Therapy, Strength and Conditioning, and Education, our aim is to provide learning opportunities that bridge the gap between theory and real-world practice.
We believe continuing professional development (CPD) should be engaging, relevant and something you can confidently apply in your everyday work.
As The Teaching Zone develops, we aim to introduce a range of educational courses covering different areas of sport, movement, exercise and rehabilitation.
Our First YMCA Awards Endorsed Course
Recognising Movement Patterns Associated with Overuse Injury
Beyond Level 3: Movement, Mechanics & Injury for Personal Trainers
How Confident Are You When a Client Reports Pain During Exercise?
Do you know what to look for when a client experiences discomfort during a squat or shoulder press?
Can you recognise when a movement pattern may need further investigation?
Do you understand how training demands and recovery can contribute to overuse injuries?
Would you know when to modify an exercise and when to recommend further assessment?
Our six-hour, YMCA Awards endorsed course is designed to help you answer these questions with greater confidence.
Through a combination of theory, practical activities and real-world examples, you'll develop your observation skills, understanding of movement and professional reasoning, helping you make more informed decisions while remaining within your scope of practice.
Who Is This Course For?
Our first course is designed for qualified personal trainers and exercise professionals who want to extend their knowledge beyond their initial training.
Future courses will explore additional subjects and may be suitable for a wider range of professionals.
