The course covers the theoretical and practical basics that are relevant to everyday professional work, drawing on the following areas: functional anatomy, physiology, ergonomics, musicians’ medicine, prevention therapy and forms of rehabilitation for musicians, psychophysiological self-awareness and forms of communication as regards posture, movement, breathing, coordination, “flow concepts” and learning and stage behaviour. There is also a focus on physiologically grounded styles of guidance.
Most of the teaching is done on Fridays during the semester and can be supplemented with optional courses.
