Description
This unit describes the performance outcomes, skills and knowledge required by performers to apply principles associated with kinesiology, biomechanics and human behaviour to their physical conditioning regime. Exercise programs could be undertaken in a performance space or other locations, such as fitness studios and gyms.Work performed requires a range of well-developed skills where some discretion and judgement are required and individuals are expected to take responsibility for their own outputs.No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
Notes
Elements and Performance Criteria
1. Demonstrate understanding of human movement principles
  • 1.1 Discuss the principles of kinaesthetic learning with relevant personnel and how they can be applied to physical conditioning activities aimed at improving movement
  • 1.2 Discuss with relevant personnel ways in which the principles of kinesiology and biomechanics can contribute to developing safe dance techniques and movement skills
  • 1.3 Identify the basic principles of a range of somatic methods or movement philosophies
  • 1.4 Use anatomical and movement terminology correctly in discussions
2. Apply somatic processes to physical conditioning for performance
  • 2.1 Incorporate into physical conditioning activities aspects of somatic methods that match own performance requirements
  • 2.2 Discuss somatic self-observation processes with relevant personnel and how they can be applied to physical conditioning activities
  • 2.3 Work towards achieving somatic postural ideals through applying somatic self-observation processes
  • 2.4 Perform warm-up and warm-down procedures in conjunction with movement activities
  • 2.5 Through pre- and post-activity fitness appraisals identify contraindicated movement activities and take steps to rectify as required
3. Apply motivational and behavioural techniques to enhance performance
  • 3.1 Discuss with relevant personnel strategies and psychological tools to enhance resilience and improve performance technique
  • 3.2 Incorporate into physical conditioning program understanding of the physical effects of motivation and nutrition on the human body
