Course Objectives – DNS Approach To Running Health:

• Postural-locomotion function from a developmental perspective.
• Developmental kinesiology aspects for ideal stereotype of running and other sports performance.
• Biomechanics of gait and the running cycle.
• Basic core stabilization as a prerequisite for locomotion patterns.
• The role of the diaphragm during aerobic exercise; dual postural-respiratory diaphragmatic function.
• Correction and training of the proper breathing stereotype.
• The extremities functional differentiation for running – stepping forward and supporting function for the contralateral pattern of running.
• DNS exercise positions to train core stabilization as a prerequisite of the ideal running stereotype.
• Biomechanical and developmental kinesiology principles for foot centration & foot orthotics and selection of optimal shoes for different type of running.
• The most frequent types of musculoskeletal dysfunction resulting from non optimal running stereotype and poor methodology of training: plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendonitis, knee pain, hip pain, low back pain.
• Stretching and coordination exercises from the developmental perspective in order to get ready for running; educating the runner.

Attention:

You must also register with the Prague School of Rehabilitation. Without paying this fee you will not be allowed to attend any DNS course. This is separate from the course fee. The Prague School of Rehabilitation fee is 80 euros payable by credit card. See here for more information: Prague School of Rehabilitation
