Registration open for November 16, 2022 Amputee Walking School

Registration is now open for the November 2022 Amputee Walking School!

Join us, along with Todd and Dennis, as Dankmeyer co-hosts with the University of Maryland Rehabilitation and Orthopaedic Institute (UM Rehab).  More formally known as Advanced Gait Training for Individuals with Lower Extremity Amputations, this session of Amputee Walking School features two segments.  The afternoon segment is a learning session for professionals. This is followed by an evening session where those with lower limb loss/limb difference and their families come to work with the pros on various kinds of exercises.  The evening session is FREE, but be sure and register so that we can be ready for you.

Professionals will attend the course from 12:30 pm - 7:00 pm. The topic is “Advanced Gait Training for Persons with Amputation.” This course has applied for 5 hours of continuing education through the Maryland PT Board. Click here for registration for the professionals’ session.

The evening session is 4:30 pm - 7:00 pm. Those with lower limb loss or limb difference can join, free of charge. Click here for registration for the free evening session for those with limb loss/limb difference.
