We live in the information age. Thanks to the internet, we have access to more information than ever before. The problem is that this information overload is generally taught in a piece and not in a system of progressive order for an improved outcome. I created the FIT library as an organized system to teach clinicians to incorporate various health skills in a very integrative yet progressive manner.

For a fundamental example, think of our current educational system. We all understand that a student must first complete kindergarten to comprehend and advance to first grade. The kindergarten knowledge is imperative to every grade the student progresses to from then on. As the student progresses through middle school, high school, and college, each grade incorporates and builds on each other. Each grade must be mastered and scored before progressing to the next level. This is a model that works for integrating and utilizing that much information and continues for the high school graduate (to prepare for college), the college student to provide an enhanced skill in society or the choice to prepare them for professional school (medical or law school as an example). The entire education system is progressive and measurable of where the person is in the process.  

Similarly, in most sports, there is a system of steps that need to be mastered before progressing. Take gymnastics as an example; the world standard knows that there are 10 levels to becoming an elite gymnast. This education system and terminology of scoring are standard throughout the gymnastic world to make a clear distinction. Each level’s skills are extremely important as they will be used and built upon.

Likewise, martial arts use a similar status system but different terminology. Instead of distinguishing the different gymnast levels, the martial art system consists of a series of varying belt colors (white belt, yellow, blue, black belt, etc.). Each belt color represents an immense amount of learning, hard work, and practice, to pass a test (academic and physical capabilities) and progress to the next belt.

The numerous modules created in the entire FIT educational system organizes what all (integrative) clinicians need to begin learning from the basic level and display proficiency before learning and applying more education. The FIT System library provides academic understanding and hands-on training and competency including a progressive Bodymap®, 3D Body Mapping®, Brain Bodymap®, Brain/Body Map®, 3D Bodymap®, and the 3D Body Map®. These modules are scoring systems that are used to comprehensively teach integrated clinical exam methods, parallel and understand the symmetry/asymmetry of the brain body connection of a particular person and provide specific clinical treatment and clinical exercise based solutions. There is extensive academic understanding, hands-on testing, and proper documentation of medical findings and corrections in order for the clinician to progress. Starting with the Bodymap™ and improving through higher levels.

I have been teaching Continuing Education level seminars for 20 years to over 25,000 doctors of all licensure. The FIT System library and the individual modules all can be a stand-alone class but ultimately are in a progressive teaching format. The modules allow a standard for the instructor and professional attendee to have a clear base of where the academic and hands-on skill level is and what must be achieved prior to a progressing to an additional module that applies to enhanced clinical practice.
