Primer Assignments
Group: Montreal Study Group: 2026 Spring Cohort Author: Patrick | Posted: 2026-03-31
Hi Everyone!
As a quick reminder, this program is designed to combine in-person sessions with online study through the Baseworks Primer. These two components work in synergy — the online content provides conceptual foundations that directly inform our in-person practice, and vice versa. To help everyone get the most out of the program, we’ve organized specific Primer assignments that correspond with each session.
Here’s the assignment schedule:
Before Session 1 — Saturday, April 4 (9:10-10:50 AM): Complete Segments 1-2 (all 14 lessons through 2.12 Form Practice: Star Form) Total time: approximately 58 minutes
Before Session 2 — Saturday, April 11 (1:10-2:50 PM): Complete Segment 3 lessons 3.1-3.8 (8 lessons through 3.8 Applied Practice Lab: Converge) Total time for new material: approximately 56 minutes
Before Session 3 — Saturday, April 18 (9:10-10:50 AM): Complete the rest of Segment 3 lessons 3.9-3.14 (6 lessons through 3.14 Baseworks Focus vs Traditional Exercise Goals) Total time for new material: approximately 43 minutes
Before Session 4 — Saturday, April 25 (9:10-10:50 AM): Complete Segment 4 (all 12 lessons through 4.12 Applied Practice Lab: Intensity Modification - Effort 2) Total time for new material: approximately 87 minutes
Before Session 5 — Saturday, May 2 (12:10-1:50 PM): Complete Segment 5 lessons 5.1-5.4 (4 lessons through 5.4 Applied Practice Lab: Transit) Total time for new material: approximately 29 minutes

Session 7 — Saturday, May 16 (12:10-1:50 PM): No new assignment
These are the Primer lessons you’ll want to complete by the start of that session.
Note: Only the Practice lessons require you to do full physical practice. The Theory and Practice Key Points content can be watched anywhere — during your commute, in a cafe, on a lunch break. We’ve included the time details so you can estimate your commitment and plan accordingly.
Please stay on this assignment schedule. It establishes the foundation for all our in-person sessions.
