from $800.00

DNS BASIC A COURSE

(18 Contact Hours)

Alabama & Tennessee Chiropractic CEU approved for: 18 hours

APRIL 4-6

$800 for Students

$900 for Doctors

SCHEDULE

FRIDAY: 8:30 AM - 4:30 PM

SATURDAY 8:30 - 4:30 PM

SUNDAY 8:30 - 3:00 PM

Open to chiropractors, physical therapists, athletic trainers, massage therapists, and coaches.

Course Objectives

  • Improve understanding of the basic principles of developmental kinesiology, emphasizing development during the first year of life.

  • Identify and describe critical milestones in human development.

  • Introduce the three levels of sensorimotor control in functional assessment and treatment.

  • Demonstrate the relationship between development during the first year of life and pathology of the locomotor system in adulthood.

  • Introduce new terminologies pertinent to rehabilitation, such as functional joint centration, punctum fixum, punctum mobile, and the integrated stabilizing system of the spine.

  • Define ideal postural stabilization from a developmental perspective: intra-abdominal pressure regulation, the dual role of the diaphragm in stabilization and respiration, and stabilization via co-contraction.

  • Identify common stereotypes of faulty postural stabilization (“open scissors syndrome,” forward drawn posture, backward drawn posture, “hourglass syndrome”).

  • Explain and demonstrate biomechanics of undifferentiated, ipsilateral, and contralateral postural-locomotion patterns; closed and opened kinematic chains, stepping forward, and supporting function.

  • Evaluate and correct poor respiratory patterns.

  • Demonstrate the correlation between poor respiration patterns and functional pathology of the locomotor system.

  • Assess the integrated stabilizing system of the spine visually and by utilizing dynamic functional tests.

  • Integrate corrective exercises based on the DNS functional tests and developmental positions: exercise in undifferentiated static positions; position transfer during locomotor function; exercise progression using unstable surfaces; increased difficulty of the exercises utilizing resistance, dual tasking, and other challenges.

  • Clarify how DNS corrective exercises can integrate with other exercise strategies.

  • Cover the basics of the application of the DNS concept in sports training.

  • Provide essential clinical management explanations for clinicians to better integrate the DNS approach in their regular practice, including patient education.

  • Optimally prepare students for the next level of training (Course “B”).

**A Certificate of ATTENDANCE will be awarded bythe local instructor

OPTIONAL EXAMINATION

Participants who would like to participate in the educational track toward becoming a certified practitioner can take this exam for an additional fee of 65 Euros.

The DNS A test is completely automatic and online. As soon as you register, you will receive a unique link to start the test. The test is designed to sharpen your understanding and reinforce the concepts of DNS to make you a better trainer, therapist, or physician. The test is comprised of 50 multiple-choice questions, including 10 picture questions. You can spend as much time as you want to take the test.

To pass the test you must answer 35 out of the 50 questions correctly. You will get a maximum of three attempts to pass the test. As soon as you submit your test, you will receive your results immediately both on the screen and they will be sent to you via email.

Upon successful completion and passing of the test, a Certificate of ACHIEVEMENT from the Prague School of Rehabilitation will be awarded. 

PLEASE DO NOT FORGET TO PAY THE PRAUGE FEE!

Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization (DNS): Golf-Specific

(12 Contact Hours)

January 2-4, 2026

$800 for Students

$900 for Doctors

SCHEDULE

FRIDAY: 8:30 - 4:30 PM — DNS Lecture and Hands-on Location: The FARM

SATURDAY 8:30 - 4:30 PM — 3D Swing Analysis and Interventions Location:Blackburn Performance Center

SUNDAY 8:30 — 1:00 PM — DNS Lecture and Hands-on Location: The FARM

Open to chiropractors, physical therapists, athletic trainers, massage therapists, and coaches.

Course Objectives

This specialized DNS course is designed for healthcare professionals, golf coaches, strength and conditioning specialists, and movement professionals seeking to enhance performance and injury prevention in golfers through the principles of Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization.

  • Rooted in the developmental kinesiology concepts from the Prague School of Rehabilitation, this course applies DNS methodology specifically to the biomechanics and functional demands of the golf swing. Participants will learn how to assess and correct dysfunctional movement patterns, improve core stability, and optimize joint centration to enhance swing efficiency, power transfer, and overall performance.

    Through a combination of lecture, demonstration, and hands-on lab sessions, attendees will:

    • Understand the principles of DNS and developmental motor patterns relevant to golf.

    • Analyze the golf swing through the lens of functional joint centration and dynamic stability.

    • Learn DNS assessment strategies for common compensations and asymmetries seen in golfers.

    • Apply DNS corrective strategies and exercises tailored to various stages of golf training and rehabilitation.

    • Integrate DNS concepts into training programs for golfers of all skill levels.

    Whether working with amateur or elite golfers, this course equips practitioners with the tools to elevate athletic performance, prevent injury, and build a foundation of resilient movement.

    Prerequisites: Prior exposure to DNS concepts or completion of DNS Exercise Course Part I is recommended but not required.
