			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>MTS LEVEL 1 COURSE OUTLINE</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>Week 1 – August 15<sup>th</sup> – 21<sup>st</sup></strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong>Read part 1 of manual and submit answers at the end of the section on 18<sup>th</sup>.  We will review this section and the answers during this week.</p>
<p><strong>Week 2 – August 22<sup>nd</sup> – 28<sup>th</sup> </strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong>Read part 2 of the manual and submit answers at the end of the section on 25<sup>th</sup>.  We will review this section and the answers during this week.</p>
<p><strong>Week 3 – August 29<sup>th</sup> – September 4<sup>th</sup> </strong></p>
<p>I realize that the labor holiday weekend is during this time so we will have to do most of our work during the week.  We will cover part 3 and submit the answers to the questions at the ends of the section.  You will be assigned an exercise from part 3 and either video yourself performing and explaining the exercise or a client.</p>
<p><strong>Week 4 &#8211; September 5th &#8211; 11<sup>th</sup></strong></p>
<p><strong><sup> </sup></strong>Postural balance assessment and upper and lower crossed syndrome review.  This is not included in the manual or DVD but additional documents will be sent before the week starts.  The assignment for this week will be to video tape assessing a client.</p>
<p><strong>Week 5 </strong>– <strong>September 12<sup>th</sup> – 18<sup>th</sup> </strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong>This week we put it all together.  We will be covering sensory motor training (SMT).  This covers balance and functional movement exercises.  The assignment for this week will be to video tape a client or yourself going through an exercise progression of SMT.</p>
<p><strong><sup> </sup></strong></p>
