Free Webinar: Integrating Gait training and Positional Breathing into Fitness and Therapy

Breathing has become a popular topic recently in fitness and therapy. But how do you implement this in your programming?

The position of the axial skeleton and its ability to change shape as we inhale and exhale greatly influences the body's center of gravity and the way distal extremities manage stress.

In this webinar, we cover positional breathing concepts and drills to restore optimal positioning of these structures before training and therapy to better manage gravity, improve weight shifting capabilities and ensure our client or patient can dynamically control the ribcage and pelvis to drive stress to the right areas.

In this webinar, attendees will learn:

• Simple assessments to determine positional limitations of the pelvis and ribcage
• Positional breathing drills to incorporate in to training and therapy
• Exercise modifications to immediately improve control of the pelvis, ribcage and foot
