Walking analysis is more than observing gait, it’s understanding movement coordination across the entire lower extremity.

At Session 2: Hip, Knee, Ankle & Foot of the 2026–2027 USC Ortho PT Seminar Series, clinicians will refine movement analysis and reeducation strategies for:
 🔹 Walking and pre-gait activities
 🔹 Lower extremity shock absorption
 🔹 Hip, knee, ankle, and foot coordination impairments
 🔹 Functional mobility deficits affecting gait mechanics

Participants will integrate movement analysis with:
 • Manual therapy
 • Therapeutic exercise
 • ICF-based clinical reasoning
 • Evidence-informed examination procedures

📅 August 3–5, 2026
 📍 Los Angeles, CA

An excellent opportunity to sharpen clinical decision-making for lower extremity rehabilitation.
