REPS NEWS REPs Cardiff Convention

Following on from last year’s fantastic Welsh success, we are delighted to announce the REPs Welsh Convention 2014 will take place in Cardiff on Wednesday 12th February at Sport Wales National Centre from 09:00–16:00. This is your chance to work with the REPs team and contribute to the strong debates and take part in the sessions that will be delivered.

After the great feedback we received following their workshop at Leisure Industry Week, we are pleased to have CHEK Europe (Corrective Holistic Exercise Kinesiology) delivering the keynote presentation for the Convention. ‘Flatten your abs forever’ will be an eye opener for all exercise professionals, using the holistic and multidisciplinary approach that the CHEK Institute is renowned for. We are certain that you will leave this presentation with some new ideas to take back to your classes, PT sessions and exercise programmes!

The presentation will be delivered by CHEK Faculty member Matthew Wallden. Matthew originally qualified as an osteopath and naturopath in London. Later, while working clinically and lecturing on osteopathic technique, he completed a post-graduate Master’s degree in Osteopathic Medicine before embarking on the CHEK Practitioner Program. Matthew has spoken at many international conferences, runs various professional forums and has written a number of peer-reviewed articles. Matthew’s work is his passion; he loves to help people to better health through coaching and treating patients.

On top of Matthew’s keynote presentation we will also have a choice of 12 interactive, practical and specific workshops including: ‘The female fat loss formula, ‘Foot function and running technique’, ‘Exercise and Parkinson’s Disease’, ‘Functional training’, and much more.

You will receive four CPD points for the day and most importantly take away ideas that you can use with your exercise programmes and classes.

Tickets are £45 for REPs members (£60 non-members) this also includes a buffet lunch.
