This year, I will be highlighting 12 key hip papers that have been published over the year, to help you keep up to date with what's happened in the hip world over 2022. These are papers that have contributed to our understanding of hip conditions and/or the assessment or management of hip, groin or buttock pain.

How Time Flies - Happy 2nd Birthday Hip Academy!
It's now been 2 years since I launched Hip Academy, and I am so honoured to have brought together such a diverse group of Health & Exercise professionals from around the world. The Hip Academy community as shown in the above map consists of physios/physical therapists and other health & exercise professionals from all parts of the globe, who come together with one aim: Better understanding and treating those with hip conditions.
I would like to thank each and every member that has made this journey so wonderful. I hope that by being a Hip Academy member, you have reaped the many benefits. Our live member sessions have been very engaging for our members, and have given them an opportunity to hear exclusive new lecture content and discuss many different topics with me and the other members.
Our members have a broad range of experience, ranging from early career professionals to many with high levels of skill and experience themselves. This makes it a fantastic opportunity for members to engage in really insightful conversations about hot hip topics and benefit from ideas from other members in our popular Member Case Presentation meetings.
Thank you to all the members who attended and contributed to these meetings. All meetings are recorded, so members can also review past lectures/meetings at any time, even if they are unable to make the live events. I have many more live member sessions planned for 2023, so I'll look forward to seeing members next year!
I have also continued to build the resource library for Hip Academy members
Below I have provided a breakdown of some of the Hip Academy highlights of 2022. You can also find some of the lovely feedback I have received from our members.
Workshop & Lecture Events
2022 Online & Brisbane Hip Workshops
In 2022, I was able to run our Brisbane Practical Workshops again, despite ongoing Covid related issues. These were a great chance to get together and learn about the hip in a face-to-face environment. I also held online workshops, were we had people from all around the world join in.
I would like to thank everyone who attended the Brisbane practical workshops and the Live Online Workshops. I would like to especially thanks those who travelled from interstate for my Brisbane workshops, and those who joined us from around the world for my online workshops. It was also great to meet some Hip Academy members in person as well.
2023 Brisbane, International & Online Hip Workshops
In 2023 workshops continue. I will also be doing practical workshops in Brisbane again, and finally I will be returning to an international teaching schedule! I will be visiting Canada and New York in May 2023, and the UK & Europe in September-October. Make sure you are on my mailing list to get updates on dates, locations and where to book.
For those who are unable to attend a practical workshop, I will also be running my popular live online workshops again for Assessment & Management of Anterior Hip & Groin Pain, and Assessment & Management of Lateral Hip & Buttock Pain.
