The ASM Academy

Give versatility a conscious place in your practice

Movement is versatile. But how do you translate that into a training session, lesson or treatment that really works for your target group? Through the Athletic Skills Model® you discover how different forms of movement complement and reinforce each other.

You learn to analyse movement, recognise connections and design, justify and deliver movement programmes. The Fundamental 10!® is the foundation, with attention to health, well-being, performance and fun.

  • For trainers, coaches, PE teachers, physiotherapists and movement professionals
  • On your own, with colleagues or as an organisation

How it works

Get started in three steps

1. Choose your package

Start with ASM Access, go deeper with ASM Basic or follow the full programme with ASM Certified. Your access starts immediately after purchase.

2. Learn online via ASM Campus

Texts, videos, questions and practical examples alternate. Self-checks show you what you have already mastered. You find inspiration in ASM Gallery.

3. Apply and complete

Put what you have learned into practice straight away, join the online kick-off and final sessions and complete with a Proof of Completion or ASM Certificate.

ASM Campus and ASM Gallery

Learning and inspiration in one place

ASM Campus is the interactive online learning environment in which you follow the course, built up in three levels that build on each other step by step.

ASM Gallery is the video platform with movement activities from professionals in many sports and fields. Search by fundamental movement skill, sport or environment and create your own playlists.

What you learn in ASM Campus you recognise in the examples in ASM Gallery. And what you try out in practice is a reason to go deeper again.

From practice

“A vision for creating better movers”

“Based on his many years of experience as a physical coach, René Wormhoudt has developed a vision for creating better movers, which he underpins with scientific research together with movement scientists Jan Willem Teunissen and Geert Savelsbergh. This vision provides practical guidance on how to teach skills per age group that ultimately produce better movers.”

Frequently asked questions

What would you like to know about the ASM Academy?

Answers to questions about the packages, the online learning environment and the additional options. Can’t find your question? Team ASM is happy to help.

What is the difference between ASM Access, ASM Basic and ASM Certified?

With ASM Access you get to know the Athletic Skills Model in Level 1. ASM Basic covers Level 1 and 2 and goes deeper into the Fundamental 10! and the five Transfers of Learning. ASM Certified covers all three levels, plus the coordinative abilities and Conditions of Movement. Each package comes with its own access period and additional videos in ASM Gallery.

How much time does the course take?

ASM Access contains about 4–6 hours of learning content, ASM Basic 24–26 hours and ASM Certified 44–46 hours. You learn online at your own pace. The time you spend trying things out and applying them in your practice comes on top of that.

How long do I have access to ASM Campus?

From purchase, ASM Access gives you 2 months of access, ASM Basic 4 months and ASM Certified 6 months. With ASM Certified, the Certified membership is included during those first 6 months. With a continuing membership you keep access to ASM Campus.

Can I upgrade to a more extensive package later?

Yes. You pay the price difference between the packages: €500 from ASM Access to ASM Basic, €400 from ASM Basic to ASM Certified or €900 from ASM Access to ASM Certified. You can also upgrade after your access period has ended. When you upgrade, the full access period of your new package starts.

What is the difference between ASM Campus and ASM Gallery?

ASM Campus is the online learning environment in which you follow the course. ASM Gallery is the video platform where you find inspiration for your movement practice. After free registration you can view the public Gallery collection. Your course package also gives you access to an additional collection: 5 videos with ASM Access, 10 with ASM Basic and 20 with ASM Certified. With an active Certified membership, 10 new videos are added every month.

Are the online kick-off and final sessions compulsory?

No. With ASM Basic and ASM Certified you can join the online kick-off and final sessions. They are optional and offered every month. You do not need to attend the final session to complete your course.

How do I complete the course?

With ASM Access and ASM Basic you receive a digital Proof of Completion after completing the content and the related knowledge checks. With ASM Certified you receive a digital ASM Certificate once you have met the completion requirements and passed the test.

Can I also attend practical sessions?

With ASM Certified you can attend two additional practical sessions for €95 per session. They connect to Level 2 and Level 3 and last three hours each. After attending the first session you can purchase the second. We recommend going through the related online content beforehand.

How does planning a practical session work?

After purchase your voucher is valid for one year. You choose a session in the calendar and attend it within that period. Rebooking is possible within the validity of your voucher; cancelling is possible up to one week before the session. If there are not enough participants, we move the session to a new date.

What does the Certified membership offer?

With an active Certified membership you keep access to ASM Campus and updates, the additional Gallery collection and 10 new videos every month. You can take part in the community and six online Q&As a year, contact Team ASM and choose to be listed in the ASM Locator.

What does the Certified membership cost after the first six months?

After the included period, the membership renews automatically at the chosen rate: €19 per month or €190 per year. You manage your subscription in your ASM account.

What happens when my access or membership ends?

Your access to ASM Campus and the related package collection in ASM Gallery ends. The public Gallery collection remains available with your free account. If your Certified membership ends, the related membership benefits and your listing in the ASM Locator also end. The certificate you earned remains valid.

Can we take the course as a group?

Yes. With the group offer, each participant follows an individual package at a group discount. Would you also like to tailor the content, coaching or sessions to your organisation? Then we put together a suitable programme and quote via Enterprise.

In which languages is the course available?

The course is offered in Dutch and English. A Portuguese version is in development.

How do I enrol?
