I used to think if I followed all the “right” protocols, every client should improve.

But real life doesn’t always work like that.

Some people didn’t get better… even when everything was done by the book.

Other times, I broke the so-called rules… and they improved anyway.

That forced me to question a lot of what I’d been taught.

What I eventually realised was this:

👉 It’s not about memorising protocols ✖️
👉 It’s about understanding principles ✔️

Because principles help you adapt to the person in front of you.
Protocols often assume everyone is the same.

That shift changed how I approached diastasis, rehab, exercise, pain, movement, and clinical reasoning as a whole.

Since 2013, I’ve been teaching these ideas around the world — helping clinicians move beyond rigid rules and build confidence in real-world decision making.

Now I’m bringing Diastasis Done Differently to Melbourne.

If you’d like to:
✔ Understand what current research actually says
✔ Build confidence with assessment and programming
✔ Learn principles you can use with many different clients
✔ Move beyond fear, myths, and outdated thinking

…this course is for you.

You don’t often get courses that are:
✔ Research-backed
✔ Clinically useful
✔ Immediately applicable

This is one of them.

If you’ve ever wondered:
“Am I missing something with pelvic floor training?”

You probably are.

This will help.

There’s a moment a lot of clinicians don’t talk about.

When you realise…
maybe it’s not the client that’s stuck.

Maybe it’s you.

Not because you don’t care.
But because you’re trying to do the right thing.

Being careful.
Avoiding making things worse.
Protecting.

But over time…
that caution can quietly become the thing that holds both of you back.

After completing The Female Athlete Course Level 1, this is what we see again and again:

👉 Therapists thinking differently
👉 Taking a different approach
👉 And getting completely different outcomes

In this case:

A client who hadn’t squatted for 6 months
→ back to a barbell back squat
→ no symptoms
→ confidence regained
→ doing something they love doing again

“In the past nothing has worked…
and my fear of making her symptoms worse
has held us both back.”

After the course, that changed.

Not the client.
Not the diagnosis.

The approach.

By empowering the client to do something different…
she found a position that worked.

That’s the shift.

Not more exercises.
Not more protocols.

A different way of thinking.

If you feel like:
• you’re playing it safe but not progressing
• you’re unsure in those “grey area” clients
• or something just isn’t clicking

This is exactly what we explore.

“Stop running.”
“Avoid jumping.”
“Protect your pelvic floor.”

What if that advice is the problem?

Most active women aren’t leaking because impact is “bad”.

They’re leaking because the pelvic floor isn’t prepared for it.

Avoidance doesn’t build capacity.

It delays it.

Learn how to build pelvic floor capacity, not fear.

Expert researcher, physiotherapist & researcher Monika Leitner is presenting a 4 hour live online seminar where she will explore urinary incontinence during impact and how you can coach your clients back to the activities that matter to them.

All enrollees will receive the recording of the seminar, and have the opportunity to ask questions.

This seminar will be delivered live online as follows:

“The Female Athlete course has once again flipped my world completely upside down. I have been coaching women for over 16 years, I believe I am a pretty progressive coach, I’m good at what I do, I’m well respected in my field, I have done this course before and I STILL learned a ton of new things, was challenged and encouraged well outside of my comfort zone.

To get to where I am today I have made a lot of investment in my education and I can hands down say that even four years on Antony’s course is still the best investment I have ever made and the only course I have ever wanted to do more than once! In this course you will question everything you thought to be true, have your bias challenged, be encouraged to respectfully challenge each other and take a massive leap outside of your bubble - but what is on the other side is so worth it.

The unique thing about working with Antony is that you are simultaneously called out on your BS whilst being respectfully held. Antony will also actively welcome you to challenge him - there is no hierarchy - no typical dogmatic approach that you find in a lot of education courses and not only is that an incredible learning environment but it also opens space for a whole host of magic to happen.

If you are on the fence about working with Antony I would encourage you to jump off with both feet, this is not an easy course, it’ll be uncomfortable and challenging but change doesn’t happen in the comfort zone, right? I promise you won’t regret investing in this work and both your professional and personal experience will be one to remember.”

Warm Wishes,
Lyndsey Roberts / Business Owner

Empowerment doesn’t come from being told what to do.

It comes from being supported to do something you didn’t think you could do.

In The Female Athlete Course, you don’t just learn concepts - you learn how to create those moments for yourself and with your patients.

The lift they avoided.
The jump they feared.
The movement they were told was “unsafe” but actually all it needed was a little modification…

When they experience success, everything changes.

You can read the research.
You can listen to the lectures.

But until you feel it, test it, and try it yourself… it doesn’t fully click.

It’s not just about “knowing” in a head knowledge way. It’s about “knowing” in a deep inside your body kind of way - embodied knowledge.

That’s why The Female Athlete – Level 1 is built around hands-on work, real consultations, movement testing, and applying concepts in real time.

Experience → Reflection → Understanding.

📍 Santa Cruz – 18–19 April 2026
📍 Peterborough – 25–26 April 2026
📍 Denver – 2–3 May 2026

Come feel it. Then apply it.

You can’t possibly educate yourself for every client who walks through your door.

Different bodies. Different stories. Different contexts.
And no checklist or protocol will ever cover them all.

That’s why our 2026 live, in-person courses are built on principles, not recipes — making the complex simpler so you can think clearly and adapt with confidence. Whether you’re a physio, osteo, coach, trainer, or other health/movement professional, the philosophy is the same: two different courses, one shared approach — think differently so you can help better.
