Test your anatomy knowledge with an online quiz...
PTs and fitness instructors with a basic knowledge of anatomy can sometimes struggle to keep up when doing additional courses - especially when its comes to pilates!
Active Training, the education division of Pilates Solutions, which holds the UK license to teach STOTT PILATES instructor training courses in the UK, has an online multiple choice quiz to test how well you know your anatomy.
http://www.activetraining.info/STOTT/TEST/
This self-test has been developed to check whether your knowledge of human anatomy is at a sufficient level for participation on a STOTT PILATES matwork or reformer course. There are three tests to complete including foundation, analysis of human movement and essential-level anatomy. Ideally the participant should expect to get six or more out of 10 on each test to be ready to attend a STOTT PILATES course without feeling out of their depth in terms of the expected anatomy knowledge level.
For those needing to increase their anatomy knowledge or even just for a refresher, Active Training works in partnership with Intelligent Fitness to offer a series of anatomy courses. These are open to all fitness professionals and are REPs accredited, carrying the following CPD points for each course:
2-day Foundation of Anatomy Course = 16 CPD points
1-day Analysis of Human Movement Course = 8 CPD points 2-day Essential Anatomy Course = 16 CPD points
Participation in the above series of workshops is designed to get you up to speed in preparation for attendance on a STOTT PILATES course but for those not considering a pilates qualification, they are also a great choice for improving your general anatomy understanding and will help you with your day-to-day work with clients.
