Course Description
This beginner-level video series introduces the core principles of developmental kinesiology and shows how to apply them using the Kayezen VECTOR resistance system. Presented by Clare Frank, PT, DPT, and Drew Morcos, PT, DPT, the course walks through VECTOR-based exercises across the full range of developmental positions — supine, prone, quadruped, sidelying, seated, kneeling, and standing — with the goal of helping clinicians build clients' postural control and movement quality from the ground up.
Developmental kinesiology draws on the sequence of movement patterns humans acquire in early development — patterns that remain the foundation for efficient, coordinated movement throughout life. By training within these positions using the VECTOR's adjustable resistance, clinicians can address movement dysfunction at its root rather than only at the site of symptoms.
This course is designed for physical therapists, occupational therapists, athletic trainers, and chiropractors looking for a practical, position-based framework to integrate resistance training into rehabilitation and performance programs. No prior experience with the VECTOR system or developmental kinesiology is required.
Learning Objectives
Upon completion of this course, participants will be able to:
- Define developmental kinesiology and describe its role in guiding posture and movement.
- Identify the developmental positions used in the framework (supine, prone, quadruped, sidelying, seated, kneeling, standing).
- Describe basic setup and resistance adjustment of the Kayezen VECTOR system.
- Recognize how VECTOR-based exercises apply within each developmental position to support movement control.
- List example beginner-level exercises appropriate to a given developmental position.
COURSE requires purchase of Kayezen Vector System (Included in price) - $395
