-Rouxchelle Denton-Cooke

This course was put together from Rouxchelle’s experience of studying different anatomy resources and choosing what she believes will best prepare a student for studying the different movement modalities taught at ROUX Wellness.

 

The objective of this course is to help you understand how the the muscles move the body and how those movements occur. This will also prepare you for when you enrol into our Pilates and or other courses.

Understanding the biomechanical movements of the body will make you a much better instructor as you will make better programming choices for your client/s.

You will need to purchase : Trail Guide to the Body by Andrew Biel as this will be a valuable tool for reference during this course as well as post course serving as a great review of the content learnt.
