What to expect: In a nutshell
The APNT sports massage course is 80-90% practical in nature, with most theory lessons integrated into practice. All the practical elements of the sports massage syllabus will be
covered in class and you will be on your feet and actively involved for most of the course! Students especially love the Clinic Days where you will assess and, if appropriate, treat real clients.
Other subjects are covered by supported home study, some of which will need to done before you begin the course. It is mandatory that 120 hours of home study be completed; that includes homework, case studies and project.
We will discuss in detail the case studies and projects which, if you've chosen to take the exam, need to be handed in within 6 months of the exam date.

Comprehensive course manual full of interactive handouts
