About FAMO Teaching and Functional Sequencing

Course Highlights

This practice-oriented course is divided into 3 distinct yet interrelated components:

• Anatomy Trains in Motion and FAMO Focus core competencies
• FAMO teaching principles
• FAMO functional sequencing

Since understanding the end of a series is key to fully appreciating the beginning, this final course of the diploma program starts with a refresher, refinement, and deepening of the core competencies of Anatomy Trains in Motion and FAMO Focus. The teaching mode is interactive, and the approach playful.

Next, we will discuss and practically apply 8 FAMO teaching principles.

From there, the focus shifts to functional design and methods for lesson planning with specific functional outcomes. You will draw from the FAMO Practice 1, 2, and 3 repertoire to create movement sequences that:

• Prepare for complex or challenging exercises
• Are self-contained and interchangeable within a lesson
• Emphasise particular goals
• Focus on a specific target audience

This is an invaluable skill that synergises anatomy-based strategies with seamless flow, function and aesthetics, play, and purpose

Learning Outcomes

By participating in this course, you will:

• Deepen your understanding of Anatomy Trains in Motion and FAMO Focus
• Understand the 8 FAMO teaching principles
• Learn methods for creating movement sequences and lessons with specific functional outcomes using the FAMO Practice 1, 2, and 3 repertoire
• Acquire an advanced understanding of the FAMO Fascia Movement concept, its scope, and practical applications
• Gain an enhanced set of teaching skills

Ensure Maximum Benefit

To ensure maximum benefit from this final course before your Slings Diploma certification, we ask that you know the muscles and fascia of the 12 Myofascial Meridians as discussed in the course and literature of Anatomy Trains in Motion. Knowing the bony attachment points will be a plus, though not required. Additionally, you will need to be able to name the 12 Fascial Movement Qualities, 12 Fascial Training Techniques, and 12 Fascial Training Aims as defined in Slings Essentials. 

Being well versed in this knowledge will be of great advantage, empowering you to delve deeper with more clarity and understanding into the subject matter of what functional fascia-focused training and Slings lesson planing entails. This will provide freedom to explore the content with depth and vigour.
