These comprehensive DVDs are  designed to give a comprehensive overview of exercises suitable for a  general population recovering from injury, replacement surgery, and other debilitating conditions that prevent them from enjoying full mobility with daily living. In other words, this program is for less fit population as compare to the aquatic rehabilitation Athletic program.

 The learning objective is to understand anatomy, safe joint range, muscle action and overall fitness levels requirements to be able to design and oversee safe exercise programs that will help each person return, as close as possible to, or improve upon, their previous levels of mobility.      

The goal is to provide overall mobility for recovery. 

We will review suggested exercises for: mobility, the Cervical Thoracic and Lumbar areas of the spine, and the shoulder, hip, knee and ankle joint areas. 

Other exercises include suggestions for clients requiring CVA or post stroke rehabilitation which can also be used for most movement disorders.

These exercises will provide  the Instructor with a generic base of safe, adaptable movement that can be combined to create programs suitable to each client's personal needs. Some people with a chronic condition may never advance beyond a certain stage for recovery – however this does not mean they have not improved their quality of life. We train to work  on the ability not disability.

What is a Tutorial?
The tutorial is a guided presentation a Certified WaterART Master Trainer  which reviews all the classroom sessions and information (that instructors would typically receive) if attending an onsite training course. Often, more and more instructors are taking our programs via home study because travel and accommodation are cost prohibitive. Tutorials are an excellent option and investment - and they also may be reviewed several times if the information is new and somewhat overwhelming. We highly recommend Guided Tutorials to non Exercise Science people taking our programs because you receive university quality education without having to attend university or college.
