PFM PILOT Module Six: NN6 - PFM Round-Up

Igniting the flame of interest in movement change via the ‘Six Non-Negotiables of Movement Efficiency’.

Through the lens of TIMING, discover a fascinating way of approaching the world of coordination and balance, and create movement change with ease AND fun.

This module is over twice as long as each of NNs1-4 and includes a case study, using NN2, 4, 5 & 6 in real-time action.

Objective data provided by the most advanced gait & motion analysis technology in the world: the DIERS 4D High Performance Motion Lab, known to all as ‘Doris’.

Given all parts of our body are interconnected, you might consider ‘PFM Pilot Complete’ as ‘ideal’, and I wouldn’t argue with you! All 6 Non-Negotiables, in the logical order you see them presented in, makes sense. AND, it seems fair to offer each Non-Negotiable as an individual module.

Bite-size modules can feel more manageable, and whilst you’ll discover for yourselves how no one area of our body works alone, patterns of shapes and movement strategies DO exist and degrees of ‘separation’ can be useful during the learning process — especially if you’re seeking to self-help your movement issues.

  • After completing Module Six, you will be able to:

    Assess and understand:

    the significance of balance and coordination challenges;

    the profound effects poor timing has on global movement.

    You will understand this in the context of the cerebellum’s role in movement timing, its relevance to efficiency of movement and its contributions to pain and repetitive injury cycles.

    You will then be able to provide simple and effective movement practices to promote Movement Efficiency, through coordination of the sensory inputs used by the cerebellum.

    A full case study showing application of movement tools from NNs2, 4, 5 & 6, provides further understanding of the interconnectivity of Movement Efficiency.

  • Course Requirements and Benefits

    All you require is a willingness to explore movement in ways that perhaps won’t be familiar. When applying what lays the foundations for any and all movement, solutions can be simple and powerful, because they tap into how we’re made.

    PFM PILOT is unique in the movement industry in being able to objectively show the changes in real time, and in working with adults to demonstrate how life-long reflexes and movement development are relevant throughout our lives.

    Let’s explore together.

Non-Negotiable #6: PFM Round-Up

Bringing it all together with the most crucial element in movement: timing. Without timing, our body’s movements are like a full orchestra without a conductor; or a serviceable train with a rusty signal box. Timing is not just for dance; timing is everything in the context of fluid, flowing, efficient movement. Movement Efficiency is Non-Negotiables #1-5 with TIMING.

  • Non-Negotiable #6: PFM ROUND-UP
    Consider this module for the obvious AND the seemingly unconnected.

    Given this module connects TIMING with movement, ‘obvious’ reasons to look here would be anything to do with a gait pattern/way of walking that seems clumsy, stiff, awkward, discombobulated, uncoordinated, where the instruction “march on the spot” instantly instigates ipsilateral (same side) arm and leg movement, where a single limb swing looks ‘out of place’/catches your eye, where arms are quiet rather than swinging and when the person reports they can’t dance/move to the beat of the music.

    Less obvious — but no less relevant — reasons to look here are shoulder, head and pelvis tilts, poor breathing mechanics, poor balance, reliance on convergent vision (looks down constantly/wears spectacles constantly), often trips (slower timing of a limb/limbs means slower recovery from a stumble), confusion with lefts and rights/has to think about it (even briefly), reluctance to cross midline with limbs during sports eg. avoids backhand in tennis and/or bias towards activities using ipsilateral limbs eg fencing, snow/skateboarding, difficulty staying focused/paying attention, difficulty catching/throwing, difficulty riding a bike, repetitive ear infections/history of glue ear/grommets, poor/messy handwriting/turns the paper to write, head-neck-shoulder move as one unit (head and eyes track together, with no separation).

    Common global issues connected to poor timing are endlessly repetitive injuries/pain anywhere, with a bias to one side of the body (as if they ‘only have one side’) and poor spatial coordination/orientation.

    Your ability to see, hear, think and move simultaneously is an unfathomably fast sequence of events created from sensory, vestibular and visual input, masterminded by the cerebellum — is yours smooth, efficient, organised and balanced … or a bit ‘rusty’? Help is here.
