Intro

  • FRI, 23RD FEB 2024
  • 2PM 🇸🇬 (GMT+8)
Welcome to the “cross roads” of the body! The pelvic ring (pelvis) is an intricate component and has many major roles in our amazing system. Over the years there have been many philosophies on how we can improve strength, prevent discomfort, create tissue health and enhance performance; how many of these have been effective? More importantly, how many empowered the clients to feel a positive experience and solution?

This workshop will allow you to experience, how brilliant the tissues of the pelvic ring are, how quickly they can change and how they affect the entirety of the human being mentally, emotionally, physically and spiritually. Implement techniques, combining movement and tools to unravel some of the issues and “instantly change” the pelvic ring in motion and tissue health.

5 Keys to Fitness Leadership Mastery

Intro

  • 09:00AM-11:00AM (GMT+8)

The fitness industry is a competitive, demanding, ego-centric & ever-evolving industry that requires us to be at our best every day. After two decades in this amazing industry, I wholeheartedly believe that we need to do LESS BETTER in order to not only help our participants/clients achieve their goals but to ensure that we have the physical, mental and emotional capacity to meet the demands we face every day. In recent years I have narrowed my focus, honed my skills, sought out learning opportunities and most importantly, made my self-care a priority. In doing so, I have found more fulfilment than I had ever hoped! As an award-winning Fit Pro, I invite you to join me as I share with you the 5 key elements that guide me daily and that have contributed to my success.

Range of motion trumps the weight moved right? Well, not quite. Due to structural differences not all clients will be able to achieve what you can, because we in the fitness industry are the exception not the rule, and not all clients will be able to, nor do they need to be able to squat “ass to grass” or bounce a barbell off their chest to achieve optimal health gains.

Learning outcomes

  • Get clients results despite limitations in range
  • Learn the difference between structural and functional limitations
  • Best assess the need for addressing limitations
  • Communicate inclusively about anticipation and manage expectations to clients
Dr Susan Baxter
1. I started Zumba in the nightclub. That's right, I attracted USA Zumba Magazine's interest from the most southern Zumba class in the world by innovating how classes were delivered. The classes were so full I had to get extra building tests for the windows when 100+ people are jumping in sync.

2. I completed my PhD in the same timeframe as everyone else (10 years total at Uni, final 4 PhD). Except I also single-handedly was running a wildly successful fitness business with staff and multiple locations, plus I was being flown around the world as an invited speaker and winning top titles in fitness competitions. I think that either means Im crazy or I have impeccable time management (or both).

3. I entered a fitness model competition (which also occurred the same weekend I was speaking at a conference, was a sponsored athlete on an expo stand). Although in the fitness competition I didn't win the overall title which meant being featured in the magazine, the magazine editor picked me to be on the cover with a cover story. Because I have see the fitness industry from a number of perspectives, I value the opportunity to share my knowledge, research and experience to help you succeed further.
