Are you a striker or pad holder that has shoulder issues?

Shoulder complaints are a common side-effect of both training and coaching in the striking arts.

The forces involved in throwing and absorbing strikes can be enough to cause significant problems, regardless of your level of physical capability.

If your training, coaching or sparring is being affected by shoulder pain, or if you’re seeing your students struggling, this programme is designed to help you get back to training and competition in a safe and sustainable way, using evidence-led techniques that have been tested and proven both in clinic and in the ring and cage.
