Course Overview
How does the brain influence movement, pain, performance, and recovery, and how can this knowledge improve rehabilitation and training outcomes? This course introduces the neurological foundations of movement, perception, and performance adaptation from the perspective of neuro-centered training and applied neurology. You will learn how targeted neurological stimuli and neuroplasticity-based approaches can support movement quality, self-regulation, pain reduction, and rehabilitation outcomes. The focus is on practical application in rehabilitation, performance training, prevention, and health promotion.

"The course is very well structured, covers a lot of theoretical knowledge, and, thanks to the two case studies, directly applies that knowledge to real-world situations. I'm looking forward to putting what I've learned into practice." – Harieta F., Upper Limb Mobility

"I found the course very engaging; it had a logical structure and offered many useful tips for everyday life." – Christa S., Executive Functions

"A good balance between theory and practice, knowledge transfer and self-assessment—very engaging and informative!" – Carina L., Upper Limb Mobility

"The Fox reads aloud, and the multiple-choice questions, video explanations, and drawings make it varied, interesting, and exciting! Bravo!"

"The training course is very well structured and organized. It provides a good review of anatomy, followed by an explanation of splint construction."

"Thank you very much for this free course. Until now, I was only familiar with the GMFCS and MACS levels. But as a speech-language pathologist, I also find the CFCS very interesting.""

"A really great concept and excellent structure; the questions on the final test could deviate a bit more from the course material to truly test understanding."

"The best lesson on cerebral palsy affecting the upper extremities I've ever had in my 35 years of professional experience!"

"I really liked the patient examples. I also liked the review with the questions. Overall, it was a great, intensive course format that lasted more than 8 hours 😉"

"The course is very well structured, covers a lot of theoretical knowledge, and—thanks to the two case studies—also applies that knowledge directly to real-world situations. I look forward to putting what I've learned into practice."

"I've come to realize how important neurodynamics is in neurological rehabilitation, and I'll approach my patients with a different mindset going forward. Thank you for the clear overview and the interactive format. The individual patient examples were also very helpful."

"Thank you for such a valuable tool! I appreciate the high quality of the clear, evidence-based, and practical content—it's really well done. And of course, I'm glad it's free; that makes it easy to recommend to others."

"I was just hoping for an update on neuroplasticity. Instead, I got a course where I learned a lot of new things that can be clearly applied in practice. I especially appreciated being able to work through the lessons multiple times and pause them at any time."

"The course was very intensive, took me more than 5 hours to complete, and really helped me understand the material. I think self-study with a flexible schedule is great!"
