Movement Assessment & Gait Analysis
If you are looking for more information relating to your running gait and movement, then this is for you- our movement assessment and gait analysis.
Working with one of our trained professionals, your movement and running gait will be analysed with slow motion video.
Your running gait will be videoed from different angels while you move through the different speeds. This will then get played back to you, analysed, and discussed. We will work with you to discover the opportunities and areas you could improve. Key areas we will look at are body position, foot strike, arm carriage, torso rotation, along with pelvis position and stability.
Strength and stability for running will also be explored as this along with good running technique are prerequisites to preventing injury and running more efficiently – either for longer or faster.
The objective is to give you a wider understanding of how you can improve your running and the steps you can take. This will include signposting you to other specialists who can take you through the necessary processes to make this effective for you.
Who is this for:
– All Runners, regardless of age or ability.
– Anyone who wants to know more about their running movement patterns and is looking to help avoid injuries.
– It is excellent for anyone who is looking to improve and develop their running.
– Any level of experience and fitness
– The time allowed for this is 1hr, costing £40.
