I am primary
teacher and have taught since graduating in 1982 in Preschools, Primary, High
Schools and TAFE. I have full international accreditation as a Brain Gym®
Consultant and Instructor.
I have
introduced brain Gym® into many schools across the Riverina and have assisted
teachers to implement it into their classrooms. I assist Early Intervention
teachers with their programs. I work full time as a consultant and work with
babies, toddlers, children, teenagers, adults and the elderly. I am qualified
to teach 1-day courses covering the basic Brain Gym exercises and the 4-day
Brain Gym® 101 course. I can also tailor shorter workshops for specific needs
and can provide ongoing support for the staff. I have spent the past 8 years
training in Brain Gym® and Educational Kinesiology and will continue to train
because I can see the difference it is making to children’s learning, behaviour
and self-esteem. I have used it successfully in the classroom as a full-time,
part-time and casual teacher. Working as a consultant, I receive referrals from
teachers, doctors and Kip McGrath Chiropractors, speech therapists to assist
individual children and adults. Preschool Teachers who use Brain Gym® are
noticing a difference with the children. Teachers and businesses are
continually asking for Brain Gym workshops.
I have just
returned from the International Brain Gym Gathering in Brisbane. This Gathering
had never been held in Australia before. I had the opportunity to participate
in workshops that have only been taught oversees and access to the most
brilliant presenters. Everything I have learnt has been used for years and has
changed so many children’s and adult’s lives. I have already been incorporating
the movements into my work and have been impressed with the results. This also
means I have more for you to be able to use with your students that will
enhance their lives.
