E.G. Anderson - Founder of Rebound Therapy
ReboundTherapy.org is the training institute responsible for the development and delivery of Rebound Therapy training courses.
The phrase 'Rebound Therapy' describes a specific method of use of a full sized trampoline to provide opportunities for movement, therapeutic exercise and recreation for people across virtually the whole spectrum of additional needs.
IT IS MORE than special needs trampolining or disability trampolining; Rebound Therapy
can provide a huge number of potential benefits for children and adults across virtually the whole range of disabilities and additional needs.
THE TRAINING COURSE teaches logical progressions of movement patterns designed to
encourage the student to continually develop whilst at the same time experiencing healthy exercise and enjoyment.
The course is certified by the CPD Certification service, and comes with a learning value of 20 CPD Points.
FOR THESE REASONS, the Rebound Therapy training
course is widely accepted as the logical starting point for trampoline coach
training - even for those who do not intend to work with disabilities.
The training course has been continually developing since it was first introduced
in 1972 and is internationally recognised, approved and accredited.

"HAVING A DOZEN of my staff trained
as Rebound Therapy trainers was the most effective training expenditure I have ever
commissioned, in terms of measurable outcome from my students."
- HEAD TEACHER
"... PUPILS WOULD benefit from more regular
access to this outstanding provision."

THE REBOUNDTHERAPY.ORG TEAM of tutors
run approved, internationally recognised, certificated in-house Rebound Therapy courses
for staff training.
THEY TRAVEL THROUGHOUT the UK, and have partners abroad, to provide these courses
at the request of schools, NHS groups, adult groups, charity agencies, gymnastic clubs and trampoline parks..
These are the standard two-day certificated Rebound Therapy practitioner training courses.
THE COURSES ARE
designed to enable members to use the trampoline for the benefit of students with a wide
range of disabilities. The course is portable and successful completion validates the
candidate to lead Rebound Therapy sessions at any suitable school or centre.
OPEN COURSES ARE, as the name suggests,
open to all and are suitable for those working independently and for schools and centres
who only have a small number of staff to train or are not able to have a course
'in house'.
WE HAVE 'OPEN' course venues in the UK in Kent, Cardiff,
West Midlands, Manchester, Liverpool, York, Cambridge and Glasgow.
ADDITIONALLY, SOME SCHOOLS and centres who commission
in-house courses make spaces available to those outside of their organisation.
THE ONLINE / DISTANCE LEARNING version of the course is ideal for individuals or small groups who cannot attend an open course.
There are two versions of the online course:
PT/OT/COACH COURSE for candidates who hold a physical therapy, occupational therapy, gymnastic coach or trampoline coach qualification that is recognised in their country.
STANDARD COURSE for candidates without any other relevant qualification.
The online course will not include trampoline manual handling, but all other aspects are fully covered.
You will be allocated your own personal course tutor who will guide you through the training course and who will be available to you at any time for help and guidance by email or telephone.
All options for the Rebound Therapy training course (in house, open or online) when completed will result in the candidate receiving the internationally recognised Rebound Therapy practitioner certificate and 20 CPD points.
THIS ONE DAY refresher workshop is recommended for:
THOSE WHO HAVE previously completed the Rebound
Therapy course and would like to refresh and update their knowledge and teaching skills.
(We recommend attendance on a refresher workshop at least once every three years.)
THOSE WHO HAVE completed the Level 1 school or centre
specific course and would like to upgrade to the full portable qualification.
THOSE WHO HAVE completed a special needs trampolining
course run by a recognised provider and who would like to validate as a Rebound Therapy
trainer.
THIS WORKSHOP is run in-house for schools and centres and as an open course in the same way as our Rebound Therapy courses.
For In-House courses, where the tutor comes to your venue, please
email info@reboundtherapy.org
or telephone 0333 122 5684 to arrange.
For information on open and online refreshers, please click on the links.
THE REBOUND THERAPY VALIDATION COURSE is recommended for those who may have attended a disability trampoline course run by a gymnastics body, or a trampoline therapy course run by a PT or OT who is not a Rebound Therapy Institute (RTI) accredited training course tutor.
The validation coure will take into account the candidate’s previous training, identify knowledge and skills, fill in the gaps, and provide them with the nationally and internationally accredited Rebound Therapy practitioner qualification.
THE COURSE is available as either:
A ONE DAY IN HOUSE WORKSHOP (with pre course reading material),
Or
AN ONLINE / DISTANCE LEARNING COURSE.

THE 'REBOUND PLUS' course is a two-day
add-on module for those who have already completed the Rebound Therapy practitioner
training course.
IT IS DESIGNED to equip candidates to help their more
able students progress beyond Rebound Therapy and start the transition into mainstream
trampolining exercises.
THE COURSE COVERS grades 4 to 8 of the Winstrada
trampoline development scheme and is therefore also suitable for mainstream beginners.
THIS SPECIAL NEEDS trampoline coach course is also
suitable for teaching mainstream beginners and is step 2 of 3 on the Gymclusion pathway to recreational mainstream trampoline coaching. (The Rebound Therapy course is step 1.)
THE COURSE IS run in-house for schools and centres
and as an open course in the same way as our Rebound Therapy courses.
