C.H.E.K. stands for Corrective Exercise and High-performance Kinesiology. C.H.E.K. Practitioners come from a variety of backgrounds and have taken training and been certified by the C.H.E.K. Institute.
A C.H.E.K. Practitioner is a holistic coach who specializes in developing corrective and high-performance exercise programs, as well as wellness, nutrition, and lifestyle coaching, all of which are based upon thorough comprehensive assessments.
"C.H.E.K. Practitioners look at the entire human being as an holistic entity. Through an understanding of how control systems integrate, producing our moment to moment and long term physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual reality, the C.H.E.K. Practitioner can more efficiently and effectively isolate the area(s) in which each client needs coaching. After a comprehensive assessment of structure, movement skills, nutrition and lifestyle factors, a customized program is developed. The C.H.E.K. system is multidisciplinary, therefore, we seek to prioritize your efforts according to your financial and time commitments" (Paul Chek, founder of the C.H.E.K. Institute)
C.H.E.K Practitioners have completed the CHEK Exercise Coach program and one or more levels of the C.H.E.K Practitioner Program, including all the required prerequisites for that level.
