Full Course Description
Screen, Steer, Move: Movement Patterns
The key to improving movement quality starts with a high-quality screening tool. If you don’t understand a person’s dysfunction, you will never be able to give them appropriate interventions.
But, screening is just the beginning. Bringing 20 years of movement analysis experience to the program, Mitch Hauschildt, will provide insight for how to screen and enhance movement quality.
This step-by-step process will result in improved clinical outcomes and increased performance in your client population.
You’ll learn exactly why, how, and when to screen your clients and patients and how to correct their faulty movement patterns.
Identify and correct the core issue faster – watch Mitch Hauschildt for Screen, Steer, Move!
Program Information
Objectives
- Analyze concepts related to corrective exercise
- Diagnose faulty movement patterns based on a simple assessment tool
- Implement corrective exercises that can be used to improve faulty fundamental movement patterns
- Examine how to progress and regress these corrective exercises by changing body position, load, and/ or stability to fit clients of all levels of fitness and abilities
- Prescribe movements that are specific to the client or patient’s specific needs and goals
- Assess how to fit these exercises into a larger exercise program
Outline
Functional Movement Demands Quality
- Properly assessing via movement screening
- Causes loss of function
- Lack of optimal neurodevelopment
- Trauma
- Learned behaviors
- Commonly undervalued progressions
SCREEN: Evaluating movement
- Quickly identify mobility and stability restrictions
- 4 simple movements for a successful evaluation
- Multiplanar approach to movement dysfunction
- Simple documentation process to simplify corrective strategies
STEER: Goals of Corrective Exercise
- Optimize motor control, joint centration, and overall stability
- Improve local tissue quality and control
- Integrate local strategies into global movement patterns
MOVE: Corrective Strategies You’ll Use Frequently
- Targeted interventions based on what is identified in screening
- Spectrum: ADLs --> sport activities
- Interplay between structure and function
- Evaluation of common movement patterns:
- Straight leg raise
- Rotational Push up
- Lunge with split leg stance
- Squat with rotation
Advanced Corrective Strategies for the Difficult to Break Movement Patterns

The Injured Shoulder: The Strategies, Testing & Criteria to Determine When to Return to Sports
Although we have been dealing with shoulder injuries in sports for 40 years, there is no validity or consensus on criteria for return to sports (RTS). The session will provide a practical guide for how testing should be performed, what tests and criteria should be used, and why these criteria need to be established using a Functional Testing Algorithm (FTA). Don’t miss this crucial session that will provide you with a step-by-step path for determining when to return to sports!
Program Information
Objectives
- Evaluate strategies that can be used for assessing the injured shoulder
- Formulate a checklist of testing (functional testing algorithm) for patient evaluation and progression
- Construct tests of the shoulder with psychometric properties that can be used for clinical reasoning for criteria for return to sport
- Develop selected treatment interventions, when appropriate, for the patient's progression through the rehabilitation program
Outline
Assessing the injured shoulder
- Functional testing algorithm (FTA)
- Developing a checklist
Return to Sport
- Traditional tests
- Functional tests
- Criteria for return to sport
Develop treatment interventions
- Progression through a rehabilitation program
- Treatment interventions for addressing deficiencies
- Case study: Shoulder impingement that wasn’t shoulder impingement
Target Audience
- Physical Therapists
- Physical Therapy Assistants
- Occupational Therapists
- Occupational Therapy Assistants
- Athletic Trainers
- Exercise Physiologist

Knee Injuries: A Step-by-Step Guide for Deciding When to Return to Sports
Patients with ACL reconstructions are often anxious to return to sports…however, when to return is not always obvious and often second-guessed. This recording will provide a blueprint of how to effectively make this decision with confidence. You’ll learn how testing should be performed, what tests and criteria should be used and why these criteria need to be established using a Functional Testing Algorithm (FTA). This is a can’t-miss recording with practical takeaways you can apply right away!
Program Information
Objectives
