Course Information (Delivered in English)
This workshop is dedicated to enhancing the health of neuroanatomical brain structures that commonly deteriorate with age.
While aging manifests differently for each individual, there are several fundamental aspects we can concentrate on to enhance life quality and cognitive abilities as we grow older.
Our focus will be on:
Understanding the neuroanatomy of balance
Techniques for training static, dynamic, and reactive balance
Exploring the neuroanatomy associated with cognitive function
Practical methods for introducing progressive overload to these brain regions within your movement sessions
Delving into the neuroanatomy of memory and strategies to promote hippocampal neurogenesis during sessions
Understanding the neurology behind contralateral movement and the significance of maintaining cross-patterning for healthy gait as we age
