EDUCATION
The KP Movement Institute educates personal trainers and allied health professionals, helping them restore function, optimize movement, and enhance performance in their clients.
Our education courses take a practical approach to assessment and training to help you understand the why behind what you do. When done, you will know what to assess (and why), how to identify areas of opportunity (and how to address them), and understand the implications of the results for your training programs. This will help you advance your practical skills, gain confidence, and in turn, get you helping more clients.
We look forward to being a part of your learning journey.
