TBMM Level One is truly the best course I've ever taken. It has changed the way I train my clients and so much more. I've already helped a few of my clients get rid of their chronic pain. One of my favorite parts about the course is that it gave me so many tools to expand my business as a CES. If you are looking to really do something exciting in the fitness industry, if you are looking to create change in your life, if you enjoy learning about the human body and if you care about people, then this course is for you.

The BioMechanics Method Level One course is a great resource for any health professional that deals with human movement. In a very simple format, you'll learn about the most common structural deviations, how to assess clients, and how to assist them in correcting and removing these limitations to become pain-free. Since completing the course and speaking with clients about my studies, I'm amazed by how many people can truly benefit from a basic corrective exercise program. I am looking forward to putting the information into practice, and am excited about the value it will add to my services.

TBMM was the most amzing course that I have ever taken. The course material was so well written and easy to comprehend. It covered so much information but was broken down into easy sections. I worked at my own pace but honestly I couldn't wait to start the next section. The tests are very extensive and cover the topic very well. I still can't believe how I look at my clients in a different way. I love to get new clients that have some muscle imbalances that I can work on.
You begin to think backwards, as in not looking at the sore knee, but rather what muscles are not working properly to cause that muscle imbalance resulting in the sore knee. By learning all the origins and insertions of the muscles and how each one of them function in each phase you begin to better understand Biomechanics as a whole.
I sign up for every couse that Justin offers at the conferences because he speaks in such a manner that is easy to understand. His knowledge of biomechanics is amazing and his delivery of the subject is outstanding. I recommend this couse to anyone who would like to take their Personal Training knowledge to the next level.

Taking The BioMechanics Method course has been the best thing that I have done in years both for myself and my clients. It’s incredible to be able to alleviate many common pains and help people to move better so that they can do the things they enjoy.

The course is great. Justin has taken what could be complicated material and presented it in such a fashion that it is easy to understand and apply.

In the short time that I’ve been “experimenting” with my new knowledge I’ve been amazed at the responses that I’m getting. People tell me, “You are more knowledgeable and have been more helpful than both my physician or chiropractor.” Others have told me they’ve tried everything from physical therapist, acupuncture and corrective shoes, but for the first time, with the BioMechanics Method exercises, they are finally getting relief from their pain. How wonderful is that!!

Thanks so much Justin and Mary. I look forward to learning the Level Two material.

TBMM is an excellent course, which has has helped me, my family & clients live pain free! TBMM will teach how to assess all major structures of the body, learn how the body moves & to design & apply safe effective corrective exercise programmes.
I especially liked how the course was laid out in a easy to follow & understand format.
I would totally recommend TBMM to anyone wishing to start out or expand their knowledge in the field of corrective exercise.
Thank you Justin & Mary

I´ve completed The BioMechanics Method Level I corrective exercise course and I must say it is one of the best courses I´ve finished. As Osteopath I can highly recommend it for every kind of professional trainer or therapist. It´s an awesome base for diagnose the cause of myosceletal issues very quick and the corrective exercises hit the point. I´m waiting for Level 2 to go deeper into the system ;-)

Gets you up to speed quickly! Help clients move more efficiently with less pain. The BioMechanics Level 1 course has been incredibly helpful in providing me the knowledge to identify and correct common movement deviations with people of various fitness levels.

The BEST part is that it gets you up to speed to address a majority of movement issues faster and for thousands of dollars less than more comprehensive programs teaching functional movement over a period of years and for a massive financial investment and often including travel and on-site time - an unrealistic investment for many fitness pros.

If you don't need to know everything, but want to know enough to help a lot of people quickly, this is the course for you!

Completing TBMM Level One - Corrective Exercise Specialist course was the best thing I have ever done for my personal training business. The intensive 3 day workshop took my training to a whole new level with the one-on-one instruction and hands on training. I was able to ask questions specific to my clients needs and receive detailed answers that allowed me to come back feeling confident and secure about my assessment and my corrective exercise programming. I highly recommend this course to any and all personal trainers wanting to take their business to the next level! Thanks Justin!
