Elevate your practice and empower your clients with our Gait & Biomechanics Masterclass, a transformative four-part workshop series designed for practitioners who want to gain a deep, practical understanding of the body’s mechanics—from the feet to the spine. This comprehensive in-person series offers progressive learning through four dynamic workshops, each building on the previous one, ensuring that you’re equipped with the tools and knowledge to assess, analyse, and optimise human movement effectively.
2025 TEACHING SCHEDULE
Whether you’re an experienced therapist, movement specialist, or health professional, the Gait and Biomechanics Workshops delivers advanced insights and practical techniques to revolutionise your client care approach. This series is specifically designed with a client-centred focus, equipping you to teach clients how to self-mobilise their bodies, promoting long-term, sustainable improvements in their movement and recovery.
Why ?
This series is designed to help practitioners elevate their ability to assess and treat movement dysfunctions by offering a practical, hands-on approach to biomechanics. By the end of this series, you will be fully equipped to implement these advanced techniques with your clients, improving their movement patterns, reducing pain, and promoting long-term functional health. Each workshop builds on the last, providing a structured, progressive learning experience that you can apply immediately in your practice.
Why should you attend?
Human movement is complex, and dysfunctions in one area of the body can have a cascading effect on the rest of the kinetic chain. Whether your clients struggle with foot pain, knee issues, or spinal misalignment, being able to assess and address these problems holistically is critical. This series offers an in-depth, hands-on approach that will provide you with immediate, actionable skills to help clients improve their movement patterns, prevent injury, and enhance their overall functional health. You’ll stand out as a practitioner who not only understands the intricacies of movement but can effectively treat it.
Who is this for?
This series is designed for health professionals, physical therapists, chiropractors, personal trainers, movement therapists, and bodywork practitioners who want to enhance their ability to assess and treat movement dysfunctions. Whether you’re looking to refine your expertise or broaden your knowledge in biomechanics, this series will give you the skills you need to offer more comprehensive care to your clients.
So What:
By attending this series, you’re not just learning theory—you’re acquiring practical, hands-on skills that can be immediately implemented into your practice. You’ll gain confidence in your ability to assess foot, limb, pelvic, and spinal mechanics, diagnose gait dysfunctions, and develop tailored interventions for your clients. As a practitioner, this will set you apart, allowing you to offer more effective, comprehensive care that addresses the root cause of movement problems, rather than just the symptoms. The result? Better outcomes for your clients and a stronger reputation for you as a movement expert.
How will it benefit your practice?
This series is designed to provide a structured, step-by-step learning experience that builds your understanding of the body’s functional biomechanics. Each workshop offers a mix of theoretical knowledge and practical application, ensuring that by the end, you will have a thorough, process-driven approach to assessing and improving your clients’ movement and learn about how you move too.. You’ll leave with the tools to diagnose movement dysfunctions confidently and provide interventions that create lasting improvements. From gait analysis to closed-chain mobilisation techniques, you’ll gain skills that can and will transform your approach to client care.

Workshop Feedback & Comments
‘ I enjoyed the topic and presentation, presented by Riccardo. He did a good job and made sure all participates understood content, going over topics a number of times to make sure we all understood and were comfortable moving on’
Keith 2 /6/24
‘I was very engaged throughout this workshop even though a lot of fairly complex topics were introduced from a perspective I had not previously considered’
Jennifer 30/8/24
Loved Riccardo's modality - awareness of and working with tendons to rebalance the body - starting with the feet. Issues since my teens including twisted toes and jammed metatarsals - I could feel the difference in the problem foot after a demo treatment at the workshop!
Robert 30/8/24
I can directly use this information in both my Reflexology and massage modalities.
Jill 30/8/24
More of Riccardo please - much more. Love what he has to offer, even though the workshop was a tiny start to his modality!
Anthony 30/8/24
Riccardo is fantastic. His experience, knowledge and teaching method/practical application made it easy to learn and advance through the course. Jen Hobart 5/4/2025
An amazing practical application of a study on the feet and the gait. Unique, easy to apply and using immediate results on foot mechanics and resulting knee, hip and/or lower back and neck issues in a matter of minute.
Jo Hobart 5/5/25
‘Riccardo is a very passionate teacher, delivers a great course on the foot mechanic. most enjoyable infos on a very important part of the body. thank you’
Susan 2/6/24
“1 very well organise polite and good communicator”
Channing 2/6/24
‘ Riccardo Galleotti is an engaging, attentive and extremely well informed speaker. His content matter is cutting edge. He gave theory of foot mechanics and description of every part of the gait. This was paired with a series of exercises which gave immediate results in correcting the various aspects of gait, including correct heel strike, alternation of full pronation and full supination together with full range of eversion, inversion and rotation. We also were guided to perform mobilisation of the multiple joints in the foot. A must have tool for all physical therapists, giving immediate relief of problems not only in the feet but also possibly knees, hips and lower back as flow on effectsall along the movement chains’
Sam. Hobart 5/5/2025
Thank you Riccardo, my knee pain and shin pain has gone and my foot straightened without effort. Much appreciated
Carol 30/8 /24
The modality that Riccardo has/is developing has huge potential for pain and health. I'm very excited about it!
