BUDOKON MOBILITY FOR COMBAT ATHLETES PROGRAM

PROGRAM options & DESCRIPTIONS

Led by Budokon Founder Cameron Shayne, the Budokon Mobility For Combat Athletes Certification Program understands joints and how to construct, deconstruct, progress, regress and relate over 50 movement patterns to Jiu-Jitsu & Grappling. The Budokon Mobility Coach also understands the science of breath, stretching, and recovery as it applies to grapplers, wrestlers, and strikers.

Budokon Coach learns to lead warmups and cool downs, breath work, guide fundamental nutrition protocol and teach signature Budokon Mobility patterns and sequencing. First and foremost the Budokon Coach understands joints and how the placement and arrangement of joints in combat conditions informs their joints longevity. This is exceptionally important for combat athletes whose joints are at greatest risk from the variety of ranges and positions their anatomy requires to fight. Our focus for this course is to develop a more complete combat athlete and coach by outlining and exploring the transitions that support, compliment and improve movement within the combat container.

Our focus for this program is to develop full functional range in a combat athlete by outlining and exploring the transitions that support, compliment and improve movement within this container. In addition this course will explore other areas of personal development essential for coaching including: Critical Thinking, Emotional Intelligence, Interpersonal Relationships, Nutrition, & Environmental Awareness.
