Previous Course Host Testimonial

Sigbjorn Hjorthaug
Sandnes, Norway
"Hosting hip workshops with Dr.Alison Grimaldi has been a great pleasure. Communication during the process and the structure of the workshops has been great. Alison is always easy to get in touch with if there are any questions or plans to be made before and during the workshops.
The best of all is of course the content of the workshops - it has been so helpful and made Norwegian physios more competent in treating hip patients. Especially the “problem solving days” with live patients has been an “eye opener” for many of the participants.
Hosting a workshop with Alison Grimaldi is highly recommended!"

Kasia Zielina

"I have been working with Dr Alison Grimaldi since 2017 running courses in the UK. It has been a great pleasure to see how well the Hip Series has been received.
We plan the courses a few months in advance, communication during the process has been great though. Alison is always very fast to answer any questions and very keen to support participants even after the course.
Alison was excellent in presentation, very knowledgeable and very informative. I will definitely recommend working with Alison and host courses together."

Know How Fizio CEO, Switzerland
"I recently had the opportunity to organise and attend a webinar on Lateral Hip and Buttock Pain, featuring the world - wide lecturer, Dr. Alison Grimaldi. It was an outstanding experience from start to finish. Dr. Grimaldi with her extensive expertise and professionalism, delivered high - quality content that was both informative and practical. The webinar was packed with all the latest evidence-based literature, presented in a way that was easy to follow and highly applicable to daily clinical practice. The organisation and communication reflected a higher level of professionalism, every aspect from registration to post - webinar resources, was handled seamlessly, ensuring a smooth and enriching learning experience. Highly recommend Dr. Alison Grimaldi for delivering top educational events for clinicians."
Online Theory
Each of these workshops include 4-6 hours of online theory. This content includes background on pathology, pathoaetiology/pathomechanics and implications for assessment and treatment of the conditions we will cover during the live workshops.
This allows participants time to slowly cover less familiar or technical content, where they can stop, rewind, replay for optimal learning.


Live In-Person Demonstrations
Once we have the background theory covered in the online learning, it's time to get face-to-face. This time is spent developing or fine-tuning the clinical skills required to diagnose and manage a wide range of hip conditions. I will demonstrate assessment and treatment strategies, provide clinical tips and take questions.
Group Activities and Exercises
During my practical workshop days, there will be a mix of group activities and breakout sessions.
It's important that participants get to try key exercises themselves. Feeling these exercises themselves and learning how to self modify and improve their own technique is a great form of kinesthetic learning.


Breakout Sessions
For diagnostic testing and muscle and movement assessments, participants will breakout for small group practice - usually 3 per plinth/bed. Having a couple of different people on which to perform tests provides exposure to differing body types/presentations. There is also opportunity for each group to discuss their findings, while I move around the room checking techniques and answering questions.
All Inclusions
- All workshops come with an online theory component - 4-6 hours of content, depending on the workshop. This is ideally completed prior to the live workshop. Three months access to this material is included.
- Participants will receive a statement of hours completed for the online learning, once the online learning component has been completed and the quiz passed.
- Each of the face-to-face workshops is usually provided over 8 hours. However, translated courses will be 2 days. Workshops can also be lengthened to 1.5 days for workshops in English but where English is a second language - this allows for a slower paced workshop with more time to process and ask questions.
- Workshop manuals are provided in pdf format.
- Certificates for the live workshops are the responsibility of the host.
