A static posture assessment identifies how your body is aligned and identifies four main types of posture deviations-anterior and posterior pelvic tilt, and elevation and rotation posture. A dynamic assessment shows how well a person moves and how well your joints and muscles move in relation to each other.

Spot on Gail! Don't forget with a static assessment the four types are
1. Anterior pelvic tilt-lordosis deformity
2. Posterior pelvic tilt-sway back deformity
3. Thoracic kyphosis
4. Flat Back deformity

How would you train each of these different postural dysfunctions?
