Principles of Kinesiology 1-4
Class Overview
Detailed Class Content
Class content can be grouped into 4 areas:
Key Concepts in Energy Kinesiology
- Understanding of the anatomy, neurology, and physiology of muscle monitoring down to the sub-cellular level
- 3 stages of stress, powers of stress, and their applicability to accurate muscle monitoring
- Contraction and extension monitoring, what the differences are, why it is important, how to address both under-facilitation, over- facilitation, under- inhibition, and over-inhibition muscle states
- Proper technique for muscle monitoring 21 different muscles in contraction and extension monitoring
- Finger Modes, and their proper usage in energy kinesiology
- Pause Locking taught via hip, jaw, and jaw and hip stacking (complex circuit building, with procedure, neurological theory, and essential reasons)
- Alarm Points
- Session structure (Issue, Setup, Balance, Correction) and prechecks
- Multiple corrections including:
- Neurolymphatic (NL) and neurovascular (NV) reflexes
- Meridian tonification and sedation points
- Neuro emotional reflex points
- Spinal reflex points
- Spinal nerves
- Origin and insertion points
- Organs

Chinese Theory and Principles
- Yin/Yang theory

- Formation, location, and function of Chi, Essence, Pre and Post Heaven Essence, Kidney Essence / Jing
- Differences in formation, location, and function of different types of Chi (Nutritive, Original, Food, Air, Gathering, True, Defensive)

Energetic Anatomy
- Energetic anatomy, and the interaction between physical anatomy and physiology and energetic structures

Procedures
- A 20-muscle meridian procedure that balances the entire meridian system
- Ability to address individual muscles directly out of a larger context
- 12 Divergent Channels (mode, pictures, descriptions, formats, procedure, unique corrections)
- 8 Extraordinary Meridians (mode, pictures, descriptions, formats, attributes and characteristics, procedure, unique corrections)
- 12 Muscle Meridians (mode, pictures, descriptions, muscle interaction, formats, procedure, unique corrections)
- 12 Superficial Channels (mode, pictures, descriptions, formats, emotions, procedure)
- 16 Connecting Channels (mode, pictures, descriptions, formats, common physical issues for overunder energy, procedure)
- 12 Deep Connecting Channels (mode, pictures, descriptions, formats, common feelings for imbalances, procedure, unique corrections)
- Explanation of reactive muscles, and a reactive muscle procedure
- System flowchart that allows the body to direct which level of meridian work (organ-based, extraordinary, connection, deep connecting, superficial connecting, muscle, divergent) needs to be addressed
Meridian360 Custom Approach
Meridian360 has developed a custom approach to teaching this class. We have
- structured the class across 7 teaching segments, taking place over the course of 51 days.
- added an additional 15 hours to it at no additional cost above and beyond the core 64 hours (8 days of 8 hours) of typical class material.
- added out-of-class assignments to build your knowledge and muscle-memory, making it easier during classroom time.
- added additional support materials to ensure your success.
- built in checkpoints to the course to ensure your understanding and proficiency of the material and make your progression more measured and sustainable.
- included free online access to full-length Segment 4 and 6 classroom videos after the class has ended (64 hours in total).
- included free online access to additional videos of all individual techniques, muscle monitoring demos, and support materials after the class has ended.
- included free future Principles of Kinesiology 1-4 repeats with Meridian360 (students earn no additional credit hours, unless they choose to pay the required 50% tuition rate).
- included free access for a year to an online 3rd party anatomy tool (Muscle and Motion) as part of the homework.
- included printed manuals in advance of class.
- included access to class powerpoint slides in advance for printing if desired.
Experience has shown that students understand the material better, absorb more content, develop robust technique, and are more likely to use the material and move forward because of these changes.

Details on Individual Segments
Segment 1
This segment consists of a 3-hr zoom meeting, with students attending at their Site Captain’s location for best results. Students incapable of being present can remotely attend, but will miss out on the hand’s on benefits of this segment. Goals of this segment include
- understanding the full class layout and syllabus.
- watching a full demo of one of the major protocols students will be building up to throughout the class. Focus is not on teaching details, but seeing the big-picture and recognizing major pieces of the process so they can see the value and importance of all the individual skills they will learn throughout the class.
- receiving assigned homework, which focuses on the location and function of the 21 individual muscles that will monitored, overall body system anatomy and physiology, and anatomical terms and relationships.
