Bill Knowles Learn by Doing Workshop Friday 11 Sep 2026, EMCC Nottingham

26/07/2026

Reconditioning | Movement | Performance integration

Bill Knowles is a world-leading reconditioning specialist, with over 30 years experience working across elite, Olympic and professional sport.

Coach in the grey

In high-performance environments the line between rehabilitation and performance is rarely clear.

This one-day "Learn by Doing" workshop with Bill Knowles is designed for coaches and practitioners working in that space. Where decision-making lives in the grey, and outcomes depend on your ability to observe, adapt and intervene in real time.

This is not a passive learning experience. it is an applied coaching environment, where theory is embedded within practice.

What you'll experience

  • Work through movement problems using a reconditioning lens
  • Explore how to bridge rehabilitation and performance
  • Develop your ability to coach within constraint-led environments
  • Improve your capacity to make effective decisions in real-time coaching situations
  • Understand how to influence movement efficiency under load.

This is a highly interactive, physically active workshop, delivered across both classroom and high-performance training environments.

Designed for coaches ready to engage, problem-solve and challenge how they approach movement and reconditioning.

Who it's for

Experienced practitioners working across sport and health:

  • S&C Coaches
  • Physiotherapists and sports therapists
  • Performance and rehabilitation professionals

If your role involves navigating the space between injury and performance, this workshop will provide a practical framework to enhance your coaching impact.
