We are offering a Functional Anatomy Course earlier in 2020. Here are the details.

Functional Anatomy Course

The Functional Anatomy course can serve as a refresher or for anyone needing to fulfill the anatomy prerequisite for the STOTT PILATES^® Intensive program.

The classroom-style presentation utilizes visual aids and hands-on techniques providing students with a thorough review of anatomy basics which can be applied to all repertoire, as well as functional activities and movement.

This course uses lectures, demonstrations and group activities to teach basic anatomy fundamentals. There is a focus on anatomical terminology, which includes anatomical position, planes of motion, types of movement, names, and locations of the majority of the bones in the body, locations and actions of joints, major muscle groups and the individual muscles’ origin insertion and action. Select exercises from the STOTT PILATES^® repertoire are also broken down and analyzed in terms of the functional anatomy at play. Participants will deepen their understanding of the body and enhance their teaching with improved exercise selection and programming.

What you will learn:

Anatomical position and the importance of it
The bones that make up the axial and appendicular skeleton
Names and locations of bony prominences and landmarks
Terms of direction and relationship and their application to movement
