Flexibility

About this course

The course uses flexibility exercises to mobilise the muscle groups involved in everyday movement and work on range of motion across the muscles and joints. Learners complete a health questionnaire and/or initial assessment, then work with the tutor to set individual progression targets. Progress is reviewed against class targets, with learners also encouraged to self-assess and reflect on their development. Home exercises may be recommended as learners progress.
