  3. Aston® Ergonomics

  4. Aston® Fitness Forms

  5. Exercise Applications for Rehabilitation

The Program is 30 days, scheduled in 6, one-week segments over a period of 21 months. Blocks of time between the phases allow the student to apply and practice the learned skills in their specific work situations.

CERTIFICATION

After completing the program, the Certified Aston® Movement Practitioner will be able to apply their knowledge to a wide range of specialized interests: working with athletes, musicians, seniors, coaching for people with physical limitations by using their Aston® assessment, movement, ergonomic and fitness skills.

What Graduates Say

“What I am learning in class is expanding how I can help my clients as a fitness and movement trainer and massage therapist. My work is more fulfilling than ever, as it is becoming increasingly sophisticated, wholistic, and effective.”
— Eve Chenu
“The pre-requisite classes for the Aston-Patterning® Certification training completely changed how I approached bodywork … It isn’t a matter of adding tools to my toolbox; it is a matter of growing an entirely new toolbox, completely different and much, much larger than before. Right now, I know that Aston-Patterning® is and supports my life-long journey.”
— Kim Ross
