Feet & Biomechanics Workshop Series
Advanced Clinical Training for Allied Health Professional
Friday – Level 1 Refresher (Hybrid Day)
Perfect for practitioners who:
• Missed the practical component of Level 1, or
• Want to revisit the hands-on techniques before advancing.
You’ll have access to all Level 1 online learning materials, and we’ll spend the full day reviewing joint motion assessment, foot loading drills — ensuring you’re confident and ready for Level 2.
Refresher Day Pricing
• Previous Level 1 attendees: $250
• New attendees: $550 (includes full Level 1 online and exercise access)
🔹 Saturday & Sunday – Level 2 Workshop - Functional Limb Mechanics
Building directly on Level 1, this weekend focuses on advanced manual and movement integration, including:
• Manual joint releases – ankle, heel, fibula, femur & hip
• Expanded lower-limb assessments and corrective movement drills
• Integrative treatment sequencing for long-term movement change
Workshop Pricing

Functional Limb Mechanics
Level 2 – Assessing & Restoring Functional Limb Mechanics
Practical Sequencing Through the Kinetic Chain
Building the Chain
Once the foot moves well, the next step is learning how the rest of the limb follows.
This workshop connects the dots between the foot, ankle, knee, hip, and pelvis — teaching you how motion, timing, and coordination travel through the kinetic chain.
You’ll learn to feel how restrictions in one joint steal motion from another, and how restoring proper sequencing creates instant balance, stability, and strength through the lower body.
This is a deeply hands-on workshop: you’ll practise targeted mobilisations and resets for nearly every major joint in the lower limb, then integrate those joints so they move as a single, functional unit.
It’s where isolated anatomy becomes coordinated, efficient motion — and where the limb finally starts working as one.
ends.
Join the Learning Journey
Functional Limb Mechanics is Level 2 of The Gait & Biomechanics Workshop Series — the starting point for understanding how the body really moves.
Available in 2026:
Perth | Melbourne | Sydney | Brisbane
Limited to 16 participants per workshop
What You’ll Learn
Joint Releases & Mobilisations
Refine your manual precision with targeted releases of the heel (subtalar joint), ankle (talocrural joint), fibula, femur, and hip complex.
Learn to restore natural coupling mechanics and motion flow through the chain — improving alignment, balance, and gait efficiency.
Movement-Based Interventions
Expand on your Level 1 foundation by linking foot mechanics with knee, hip, and pelvic function.
Use wedges, tactile cues, and dynamic movement drills to retrain loading, sequencing, and coordination across all gait phases.
Dynamic Alignment Assessment
Stop analysing static posture — start reading movement in motion.
Learn to identify where motion is missing, where it’s being borrowed, and how to bring each segment back into sync throughout the walking cycle.
Limb Coordination & Timing
Use wedge placement, precise motion cues, and joint articulation to teach the body how to load and release energy efficiently.
This is where gait analysis transforms into fluent, functional motion — movement that looks and feels effortless.
Who It’s For
This series is for the practitioners who look at movement and think, “There’s more to this than what the textbook says.”
The ones who want to understand how the body really works — not in theory, but in motion.
Whether you’re a:
Physiotherapist or Osteopath wanting to bridge manual therapy with functional movement
Personal Trainer or Strength Coach chasing better biomechanics, not just heavier lifts
Chiropractor or Movement Specialist tired of chasing symptoms instead of patterns
Soft Tissue Therapist or Reflexologist ready to see how the foot and gait drive everything else
You’ll leave with a system that actually mirrors how your clients move — messy, adaptive, and wonderfully human.
CPD / CPE Recognition
Each workshop is AHPRA-recognised and eligible for CPD / CPE points, designed for immediate clinical application and integration into daily practice.
Every participant receives:
Certificate of Completion – confirming 20 hours of professional development per workshop
Access to all pre-learning and post-learning materials – including theory, assessment videos, and movement breakdowns
Recorded demonstrations of every major mobilisation, assessment, and gait integration technique
Practical feedback and individual guidance throughout each module to ensure confidence and clinical competence
Total: 20 AHPRA-certified Professional Development hours per workshop
Level 3 Functional Foot & Spinal Mechanics
Mapping Motion from the Ground to the Spine
Practical Integration for Posture & Movement Control
Connecting the Ground to the Core
Level 4 Dynamic Gait Integration
Seeing, Sequencing & Correcting Real-World Movement
Rebuild the Foot → Integrate the Limb → Connect to the Spine → Unify the Whole Gait
The Full System in Motion
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!

‘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’

What Participants Are Saying
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
“1 very well organise polite and good communicator”

Hey Riccardo,
I’ve incorporated the foot assessment into my global screen. It’s been the missing link to my treatments - have always identified foot dysfunction but never had the right tools to assess and treat. I can’t thank you enough.
I’ve had 3-4 people come in complaining of “plantar fasciitis” and after assessing and treating was able to get them loading their foot tripod correctly, coming off the big toe and moving pain free within the hour. Brilliant! Dane 5/6/25
The modality that Riccardo has/is developing has huge potential for pain and health. I'm very excited about it!

Thank you Riccardo, my knee pain and shin pain has gone and my foot straightened without effort. Much appreciated
