The five days
Like a detective with a jigsaw. Take the foot apart, find the clues, then put it all back together.
Day 1
Breaking it down
The foundations of foot, ankle and lower limb biomechanics.
Day 2
Building on the foundations
Measures, equipment and what the data really says.
Day 3
Applied biomechanics and pathology
From the lab to the patient. Live cases.
Day 4
Orthoses and footwear
To 3D print or not?
Day 5
Putting it all back together again
Foot, ankle, lower limb, shoe and orthosis as one.

Day 5
Every piece matters.
Foot, insole, plate, studs, upper. Understand each one, then put the athlete back together.
