Foot and Ankle Mobility for Knee Support

Listed by the publisher as “Why Focusing Only on the Knee Isn’t Enough”

This lesson guides participants through three cardinal movements of the foot and ankle: dorsiflexion/plantarflexion, inversion/eversion, and abduction/adduction. The movements are explored in three stages, progressing from sitting to lying on the stomach and finally balancing a book on the foot to refine motor control and awareness.
