The only place to complete the DNS Exercise/Sports Courses in Central London. Developed by Professor Pavel Kolar. It is open to all trainers, exercise specialists, CHEK Practitioners and Manual Therapists (Including Physiotherapist, Osteopaths etc).

We limit the number of people to 18 for each class so we can create an inviting and optimum learning experience and get as much hands on time with the Prague School Physios. Bearing in mind most of these courses usually have 40 plus people in, this is an opportunity not to be missed.
LEVEL I: 2 day course
​TBC 2019

  • Demonstrate an understanding of the basic principles of developmental kinesiology.
  • Describe the relationship between development during the first year of life and dysfunction of the locomotor system in adulthood.
  • Discuss and demonstrate the basis of human movement: support, stepping forward, the biomechanics of motor function, the verticalization process & functional joint centration in postural development.
  • Evaluate and correct poor respiratory patterns.
  • Assess the integrated stabilizing system of the spine both visually and utilizing dynamic functional tests.
  • Integrate corrective exercises based on the DNS functional tests and developmental positions in supine, prone, low kneeling, oblique sit, and quadruped global movements.

  • The most common painful syndromes in various types of athletes, pathology in: shoulder girdle (rotator cuff, impingement, biceps tendinitis), elbow problems (epicondylitis), pelvic girdle (hip joint pain, groin problems), knee (ACL injury, meniscus lesions, jumper’s knee), foot.
  • Case studies.
  • Examples of the most common sports and how to apply DNS principles based on the sport context: running/sprinting,  throwing sports (Baseball, Tennis, Basketball, Shot Put, etc), kicking/soccer,  swimming, cycling, golf.
  • Optional Practical Testing of the participant’s skills to achieve Certified DNS Exercise Trainer Diploma.
  • Certification in DNS Exercise Course - To ensure adequate practice with clients, this practical test can only be taken one year after completion of the first DNS course (either DNS Exercise I or DNS A). You may still choose to take DNS Exercise III prior to that 1-year span.  However, if you wish to take the trainer certification practical test, you will have to re-take Level III  again and sit for the test.
