Education Level: Beginner Prerequisites: None Target Audience: Aquatic Fitness Professional, Group Fitness, Personal Trainer, Therapy, Coach Course Description: It's every fitness professional's nightmare: "I know where the muscle is located, I can see the word in my head, but how do I pronounce it? These terms are so unusual." Even physical therapists, presenters and college professors all say the terms differently. What is the correct pronunciation of basic anatomical terminology? In this CD Rom course, Sarah B. Manis, BA in English, takes us through the history of nomenclature and then helps us with proper pronunciation of the common muscles in the body. Each muscle is represented with its common spelling, phonetic spelling, a picture, the Latin root of the term, and then the muscle is used in a sentence that helps us learn about the muscle. The best part of this CD Rom is that you can click on the speaker icon and HEAR and PRACTICE the correct pronunciation. How good is that! Course Objectives: After completing this course, the student will: Become familiar with and appreciate the history of anatomical terminology. Understand the roots of Basle Nomina Anatomica (BNA).
