Everyone entering the clinic must wear a respirator level mask (N95 equivalent) face mask at all times and will be required to complete a Covid-19 screen online before each day of the course. No one may enter the clinic if (1) they have Covid-19 symptoms, (2) are Covid-19 positive, (3) travelled internationally in the last 14 days, or (4) been in contact in the last 14 days with an individual described by (1), (2) or (3). Participants must also provide proof of COVID vaccination 2nd dose to attend the course.

Course Description
This is an Advanced level course providing an opportunity for in-depth exploration of the movement transitions ‘Sit to Stand’ (sitTS) and ‘Stand to Sit’ (standTS). SitTS requires greater lower limb torque and range of motion than either walking or climbing stairs. Both sitTS and standTS are essential, basic activities of daily living, a primary determinant of independence, equally as important as ambulation and are a focus of neuro-rehabilitation for functional recovery. This advanced level course will explore how movement is conceptualized from the perspective of the Bobath clinician providing the foundation for clinical movement analysis and critical discussion to compare and contrast how these movement transitions are currently discussed in the literature. The theoretical component of this course will also discuss the neurophysiology underpinning the interactive relationship of postural control and selective movement for successful sitTS and standTS. Through patient demonstrations, patient treatment sessions and practical sessions the course participant will gain an opportunity to translate theoretical knowledge into clinical applications to address functional recovery of sitTS and standTS to facilitate their professional practice knowledge development with respect to the Bobath concept. The model of Bobath clinical practice will be utilized to explore clinical reasoning at an Advanced level.
Course Objectives
The course participant will gain an understanding of:
- The conceptualization of movement from the perspective of the Bobath clinician as a basis for movement analysis
- How sitTS and standTS is currently discussed and measured in the literature and the similarities and differences with respect to Bobath clinical practice
- The neurophysiology underpinning successful sitTS and standTS
- Bobath interventions to address movement components essential to successful sitTS and standTS
- The use of the model of Bobath clinical practice to explicate the clinical presentation and treatment plan of an individual with neurological dysfunction
