The Functional Movement Training Method—Moving from Isolation to Integration—Learn the importance of integrating skill and health related fitness through an age and developmentally appropriate manner—The Functional Movement Training Method. Through the integrating the FMT Method into your existing curriculum, you will learn how to use linear and non-linear progressions to develop the skill and health related fitness of your diverse student population.
Trinity—Three Essential Movements—Discover how the lunge, squat and scapular retraction provide the foundation for most all movements that we perform. Learn how to develop linear progressions to create proper biomechanics within these three essential movements that all other movements will build upon.
ADAPT—Alternative Dynamic Activity Preparation Training—Develop the knowledge and skills required to design an effective “warm-up” which utilizes movement patterns essential to skillful participation in various units of instruction. ADAPT prepares the body by introducing the necessary physiological changes that are fundamental to activity preparation and serves as a foundation for movement skill acquisition (fundamental and specialized).
Functional Circuits—Integrated Learning—Create activity circuits that address the components of skill and health related fitness to strengthen movement skills (fundamental and specialized) necessary for successful participation in various units of instruction.
