WHY THIS COURSE

Let me help you take your knowledge to a level you did not think possible. 
With many years of clinical experience seeing patients, I know how troublesome shoulders can be. To fix them, you have to understand the four different joints that make up the shoulder AND the influence of the neck, upper back, and even core stability. 

This course is not just about learning anatomy. It is so much more than that. It teaches you how all the elements of the shoulder and body work together and what you need to do when things go wrong.

This course is for teachers who want to help every student and every shoulder problem. 

Look Inside 1

You may have heard of the rotator cuff muscles, but what do they actually do? Here I explain some vital roles they play.

Look Inside 2

Knowing the functional anatomy of the rotator cuff is crucial. But as a teacher, you also need the skills to assess when these tissues are not correctly functioning. In this clip from the course, there is an excellent great example of long-standing shoulder issues.

Look Inside 3

Once you have learnt the functional anatomy AND how to assess a student, what do you do? The Shoulder Course will give you lots of ideas of movements that will appropriately stimulate specific tissues to improve them. In this clip, I explain a great way to target one of the rotator cuff muscles.
