Application
This unit describes the skills and knowledge required by performers to apply principles associated with kinesiology, biomechanics and human behaviour to their physical conditioning regime. Exercise programs are undertaken in performance spaces, and other fitness studios or gyms.
The unit applies to those who use movement and range of motion in performances, and draw upon different, 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.
