Gait & Biomechanics Workshops

A Comprehensive 4-Part In-Person Training Series for Practitioners

Mastering Foot Mechanics

Advanced Foot & Limb Mechanics

Foot and Spinal Mechanics

Mastering Gait Analysis

Elevate your practice and empower your clients with our Gait & Biomechanics Masterclass, a transformative four-part workshop series designed for practitioners who want to gain a deep, practical understanding of the body’s mechanics—from the feet to the spine. This comprehensive in-person series offers progressive learning through four dynamic workshops, each building on the previous one, ensuring that you’re equipped with the tools and knowledge to assess, analyse, and optimise human movement effectively.

2025 TEACHING SCHEDULE

Whether you’re an experienced therapist, movement specialist, or health professional, the Gait and Biomechanics Workshops delivers advanced insights and practical techniques to revolutionise your client care approach. This series is specifically designed with a client-centred focus, equipping you to teach clients how to self-mobilise their bodies, promoting long-term, sustainable improvements in their movement and recovery.

Why ?

This series is designed to help practitioners elevate their ability to assess and treat movement dysfunctions by offering a practical, hands-on approach to biomechanics. By the end of this series, you will be fully equipped to implement these advanced techniques with your clients, improving their movement patterns, reducing pain, and promoting long-term functional health. Each workshop builds on the last, providing a structured, progressive learning experience that you can apply immediately in your practice.

Why should you attend?

Human movement is complex, and dysfunctions in one area of the body can have a cascading effect on the rest of the kinetic chain. Whether your clients struggle with foot pain, knee issues, or spinal misalignment, being able to assess and address these problems holistically is critical. This series offers an in-depth, hands-on approach that will provide you with immediate, actionable skills to help clients improve their movement patterns, prevent injury, and enhance their overall functional health. You’ll stand out as a practitioner who not only understands the intricacies of movement but can effectively treat it.

Who is this for?

This series is designed for health professionals, physical therapists, chiropractors, personal trainers, movement therapists, and bodywork practitioners who want to enhance their ability to assess and treat movement dysfunctions. Whether you’re looking to refine your expertise or broaden your knowledge in biomechanics, this series will give you the skills you need to offer more comprehensive care to your clients.

So What:

By attending this series, you’re not just learning theory—you’re acquiring practical, hands-on skills that can be immediately implemented into your practice. You’ll gain confidence in your ability to assess foot, limb, pelvic, and spinal mechanics, diagnose gait dysfunctions, and develop tailored interventions for your clients. As a practitioner, this will set you apart, allowing you to offer more effective, comprehensive care that addresses the root cause of movement problems, rather than just the symptoms. The result? Better outcomes for your clients and a stronger reputation for you as a movement expert.

How will it benefit your practice?

This series is designed to provide a structured, step-by-step learning experience that builds your understanding of the body’s functional biomechanics. Each workshop offers a mix of theoretical knowledge and practical application, ensuring that by the end, you will have a thorough, process-driven approach to assessing and improving your clients’ movement and learn about how you move too.. You’ll leave with the tools to diagnose movement dysfunctions confidently and provide interventions that create lasting improvements. From gait analysis to closed-chain mobilisation techniques, you’ll gain skills that can and will transform your approach to client care.

What’s Included in the Workshop Series

Our Gait and Biomechanics Workshop Series is designed to offer a unique, blended learning experience that sets it apart from other courses available in Australia. This comprehensive approach combines immersive in-person training with extensive pre-and post-course support to ensure a thorough and lasting learning experience.

Workshop Overview

2-Day In-Person Learning

This intensive, hands-on workshop spans two full days, focusing on practical skills and real-time application of techniques. With a strong emphasis on experiential learning, you’ll gain the confidence and ability to apply biomechanics principles and gait analysis techniques immediately in your practice.

What’s Included in the Workshop:

Online Pre-Learning

Before attending the in-person sessions, you’ll have access to an online library containing all necessary theory components. This self-paced material is designed to ensure you’re well-prepared, allowing you to enter the workshop with a solid foundational understanding. Additionally, you’ll enjoy unlimited post-course access to this content, supporting ongoing learning and reinforcement of key concepts.

Detailed Workbook

During the workshop, you’ll follow along with a comprehensive workbook that covers all core topics and exercises. This workbook serves as both a guide and a valuable reference, helping you track your progress and reinforcing important principles and techniques.

Hands-On Training

The workshop is dedicated to hands-on practice, where you’ll dive deeply into advanced foot assessment, gait mechanics, and movement correction techniques. These sessions are designed to give you practical, applicable skills that you can confidently use with clients or in your own practice right away.

Course Wedges

To enhance your practical experience, you’ll receive 1 Black and 2 Green wedges. These wedges are specifically designed for exploring movement mechanics and applying what you’ve learned in a hands-on manner. They’re a valuable tool for practicing and understanding the intricacies of gait and biomechanics.

Why Choose the Gait and Biomechanics Workshop Series?

Our Gait and Biomechanics Workshop Series offers exclusive features not available in other courses, blending online preparation with in-person, real-time learning. This ensures that you receive a well-rounded experience, supported by pre-learning materials, hands-on practice, and tools that foster continued development.

Through this unique approach, participants benefit from a deep and lasting engagement with the material. The series is designed not only to enhance immediate practical skills but also to provide you with ongoing resources for continuous growth in gait and biomechanics.

Workshop Feedback & Comments

‘ I enjoyed the topic and presentation, presented by Riccardo. He did a good job and made sure all participates understood content, going over topics a number of times to make sure we all understood and were comfortable moving on’

Keith 2 /6/24

‘I was very engaged throughout this workshop even though a lot of fairly complex topics were introduced from a perspective I had not previously considered’

Jennifer 30/8/24

Loved Riccardo's modality - awareness of and working with tendons to rebalance the body - starting with the feet. Issues since my teens including twisted toes and jammed metatarsals - I could feel the difference in the problem foot after a demo treatment at the workshop!

Robert 30/8/24

I can directly use this information in both my Reflexology and massage modalities.

Jill 30/8/24

More of Riccardo please - much more. Love what he has to offer, even though the workshop was a tiny start to his modality!
