Welcome to the Balance Matters course.

Excited for you to learn new balance exercises to start implementing into practice right away.

We all know Balance Matters!

YOUNG, OLD, ATHLETE, NON-ATHLETE – WE ALL HAVE ONE CONNECTION.
WE ALL WANT TO OPTIMIZE PERFORMANCE AND DECREASE RISK FOR INJURY.

GOOD BALANCE IS THE KEY.

YOU can help your clients find good balance and reduce fall risk!

Before you start an exercise with a client, your words also matter. Set the stage to provide them self-efficacy, autonomy, meaningful goal setting and a discussion of what to expect. How to apply motor learning principles to balance training is discussed in the first video.

4 modules (sensory integration, equilibrium strategies, single leg stance and sit to stand) will then be introduced with assessment and training videos and handouts.

I highly recommend you review the Resources and try the Learn by Doing worksheets to get the most out of each module.

I believe we become better teachers when we can feel and understand the exercises.

I hope you enjoy the course and that it helps your clients reach their highest potential.
