It’s simple KIN – EASY – OLOGY

Kinesiology is such a wide and expansive therapy, for a detailed description see our link to “What is Kinesiology.”

Kinesiology is definitely a modality in its own right. Many naturopaths and massage therapists are now realising how effective Kinesiology is, especially PKP, and use it to expand the efficacy of their work. These practitioners only have a limited knowledge of Kinesiology and use just a few of the many techniques available. An increasing number of practitioners are learning Kinesiology to add to their skill base. However, PKP Kinesiology is a modality within itself, and it includes many different techniques so that no other modality is required. PKP Kinesiologists are highly trained and skilled practitioners, and are able to help people on many different levels. There is so much to learn within Kinesiology, and it is quickly becoming known for the brilliant modality that it is. We often receive phone calls from people requesting Kinesiologists in their area.

The Wellness Certificate is the first level in our Kinesiology training program.  Once completed you can then decide if you would like to continue with further studies to the first of our practitioner certified courses, the Foundational Professional Program.

There are many different types of Kinesiology. Some were developed for professionals, whilst others were designed for lay people. Some types of Kinesiology you may have heard of include PKP (Professional Kinesiology Practitioner), Touch For Health, Hyperton-X, Applied Physiology, Educational Kinesiology, Three in One, L.E.A.P., Neural Organization Technique (N.O.T.) and many more.

PKP, the Professional Kinesiology Program, was the course that our principal thoroughly researched and ultimately trained in, because he deemed it to be the best curriculum available. This is the syllabus thus taught by Kinesiology Connection. PKP is the Professional Kinesiology Program written to a professional standard. It is written by Dr Bruce Dewe MD, a medical doctor and specialised Kinesiologist, one of the founding fathers of modern-day Kinesiology. 

This course is holistic in the true sense of the word. Graduates have all the necessary skills and knowledge required to be an outstanding Kinesiology Practitioner. Knowledge, techniques and skills are taught in a progressive manner starting with the basics, and gradually build on knowledge already learnt. The course content is integrated at the appropriate levels so that students have a good blend of emotional, chemical and nutritional, environmental and structural techniques. This ensures the students will be excellent practitioners and have the ability to help a wide range of health issues and sustain a viable career. 

It is well structured, in that a specific protocol is taught so that students have an organised system to follow. It ensures the best feasible success in the shortest time possible. Graduates of PKP have an extremely high level of skills and techniques. These graduates are sought-after practitioners. From experience we know that PKP is the most complete Kinesiology system that uses high quality techniques to balance the body in a structural/physical, chemical/nutritional and emotional/mental way. 

Quite simply the answer is YES !!! There is a great deal of difference between courses even though they have the same final qualification. The content of the courses are dramatically different. Some other courses are basically a massage course with a little Kinesiology added to it. Other courses again are made up by combining a variety of techniques together to fill up the subjects. 

Our course curriculum is sourced from the official training syllabus of the International College of Professional Kinesiology Practice (ICPKP). ICPKP colleges can be found in other countries around the world where Kinesiology as a health modality is taught and practised. The course material starts with the basics and progresses to advanced techniques and knowledge.
We offer consistent support and assistance, plus undiluted and advanced Kinesiology techniques (compared to many other colleges). Our aim and objective is to ensure our graduates are fully qualified as competent and proficient practitioners, prepared to enter the real world. We are very proud of our successful graduates.

Our classes are considered to be full time study.

Face-face-hours are essential in order to learn this hands-on modality, and our Kinesiology modules are taught on a Saturday & Sunday every three to four weeks (for the weekend classes), and the weekday class is taught over two consecutive Tuesdays (with a 2-3 week break in between) every month.

Contact our office for more information.

Usually on weekends and they are held every three to four weeks apart from each other, as this way people can still work during the week whilst they study. Approximately 7 hours a week of self-paced study for the Wellness Certificate and approximately 12 hours a week for the FPP done outside of class, needs to be completed between each Kinesiology unit.

YES. You may be eligible for recognition of prior learning (RPL) for non-Kinesiology units provided the course is up to the appropriate level. Due to the high quality of our Kinesiology units and the variety of Kinesiology courses available you will need to discuss your individual case with us.

Please click here to link to the RPL page.

All of the non-Kinesiology units are considered to be correspondence units and can be studied in your own time outside of class.

• How many hours are “pure” Kinesiology hours in relation to non-Kinesiology hours?
• Are all Kinesiology units taught face-to-face? (VERY Important)
• Is the training accredited by the Australian Institute of Kinesiologists (‘AIK’) and/or the Australian Kinesiology Association (‘AKA’)?
• Can you automatically join either of these associations once you receive your qualification?
• Is it one type of Kinesiology for the whole course or are there many different types and sources of Kinesiology? (If there are variously sourced and different types of Kinesiology, there may be a lot of repetition, as the techniques vary and are not integrated).
• Can I still work while I am studying?
• Is there a lot of time for practice?

The answer to this is Yes! There are so many people out there with pain, fatigue or tiredness, digestive problems, allergies, emotional stress, learning difficulties, skin issues, kids with behavioural problems or anyone trying to improve their life at some level. There are so many people out there that we can help, we will always be in business. 

Increasingly, more people are hearing about Kinesiology daily. No longer are we asked, “What did you say you do for work” but “Wow, tell me more about it. My friend goes to a Kinesiologist and says it’s helped him/her a lot”. Over the last few years Kinesiology has been receiving more acceptance from both other practitioners and the public.

Many graduates start their own clinic as sole traders from home. More and more are joining existing clinics as private practitioners working for themselves. These clinics are often shared with Chiropractors, Naturopaths, Acupuncturists, Massage Therapists, and even Doctors surgeries. There are more options, and clinics are increasingly looking for Kinesiologists. One graduate who was previously a beauty therapist was employed at a beauty therapist because she was also a Kinesiologist.

If you are determined and have the willingness to do the work, you will succeed. So far all graduates that  committed themselves to completing all required tasks, have proven to be competent and proficient. They are successfully working in the health arts field.
