101 - SPORT BALANCE LEVEL I
Sponsored by Twist Conditioning Inc.
Peter Twist, Andrew Clark and Greg Anderson
Time: 1:30pm-9:30pm
Balance is the key link between strength and function. Safe and results-oriented balance training is much
more than standing on a balance apparatus. Techniques designed to improve proprioception, stability and
muscular coordination will reduce the incidence of injury as well as improve joint stability required for
improved power initiation. Static, dynamic and “act and react” balance challenge concepts will be taught
during this two level certification for legs, core and upper body exercises. Acclimation, progression and
regression are suitable for fitness, sport conditioning and rehabilitation. 4 FIS, PTS, SCS

102 - YOGA WITH RESIST-A-BALL
Sponsored by Fitness Source
Helen Vanderburg
Time: 2:00pm-8:00pm
Resist-A-Ball® guides you through an all-new specialty workshop blending classic Hatha Yoga
postures with the Resist-A-Ball®. We have found that the Resist-A-Ball® actually makes Hatha Yoga
more accessible to a wider range of body types and fitness levels. The support of the ball allows the
body to roll into positions with progression developing muscular strength and stabilization during
the training process. This unique tool can allow positions to become easier or more challenging
depending upon the postures. "Yoga with Resist-A-Ball®" provides the information you need to
offer a relaxing and stress-free mind-body program for your clients and group classes. 4 FIS, PTS,
