Together for versatile movement
Athletic Skills Model®
The Athletic Skills Model® is a practical and scientific model from the Netherlands for versatile movement. ASM was developed by René Wormhoudt and Prof. dr. Geert Savelsbergh. It was published in 2012 in a Dutch book and in 2018 as an expanded English book. In 2021 the book was also translated into Japanese.
The great interest in ASM and the Fundamental 10!® is currently met by training coaches, PE teachers and physiotherapists in the ASM Academy, developing innovative training equipment such as the ASM Adaptaball® and ASM REV3RSE®, developing tools to monitor development such as the MQ Scan and the ASM Growth calculation, and designing movement facilities for municipalities, schools, sports facilities and health centres based on the Skills Garden® and PLAYCE® concepts.
Why ASM?
The urgency
- Today’s generation is considerably less fit.
- Too little variety and fun in movement.
- ASM offers a different view on physical inactivity.
Today’s knowledge
- Elite athletes often played many different sports in their youth.
- That variety makes them better athletes.
- Fewer injuries and a lifetime of healthy movement.
Our promise
- Practically and scientifically grounded.
- Quality in versatile development.
- Better performance, fewer injuries, more fun.
