Polestar Anatomy

EDUCATOR: Brent Anderson

ABOUT THE COURSE

This three-day course is designed for skilled Pilates teachers interested in post-rehabilitation as well as rehabilitation professionals who want to learn to better assess and design effective Pilates programs for their clients and patients.

The evolution of the Polestar Principles of Movement, integrated with Porterfield and DeRosa’s Stages of Rehabilitation and the World Health Organizations (WHO) latest classification system, the International Classification of Function (ICF) model, create an easy-to-use framework for assessing and planning Pilates interventions.  This course will emphasize the use of the Polestar Assessment Tool (PAT) combined with the ICF model to design the path in which the patient or client is most likely to accomplish their goals and return to life they desire.
