  • Exploring themes for Main routines – Salsa, Latin, Combat, Energy Bursts, Dance, Strictly, Hip Hop etc
  • Layering — adding progressions to your 32 count routines
  • Revisiting right footing (when to use – and to use sparingly)
  • Risk Stratification (ACSM and Irwin and Morgan)
  • Absolute contraindications to exercise
  • Deferral and Referral
  • General scope of practice (again!)
  • Deadlift and Clean technique to support Body Conditioning (to set up for a back squat / lunge)
  • Other body conditioning movements with focus on upper body – lat raises – forntal raises, upright rows, French press, tricep extensions
  • Using dumbbells, KBs and plates and exploring variables such as tempo and time under tension
