Rosemary Dean Dip. ASK

In 1998, I began my journey in Kinesiology and what a journey it still is. It was such a thrill when I discovered what I really wanted to do in life.

I studied with TASK completing the full Diploma in 2001 and set up my practice first in Surrey and then moved to the Scottish Borders where I love sharing with clients and students how Kinesiology can help them change their life.

I have taught the foundation course since 2000 and also taught on the practitioner course for two years until moving to Scotland

Within my teaching role, I learn from my students how to pass the information on to them in a way that they can understand and use. By listening and watching them to see how best they absorb information and integrate their needs into my teaching methods. Encouraging students to workshop builds their confidence and their enjoyment in their learning so it plays a strong part of my teaching.

I am still in the process of learning myself as I am in the last few months of a Nutrition Diploma and have also trained in Massage and herbal remedies called Homoeobotanicals which I also use in my practice. Annually, I also complete at least the required quota of Continuing Professional Development courses and I strongly believe it is very important to keep learning and keep up to date.

I do what I love and love what I do, and hope you join me on this journey.

 

Yvonne Diment BSc(Hons), Dip.ASK, Raw.Dips, Dip.VCCT, ITEC, PGCE

 After 20 years in the teaching profession, I made a career change to complementary health qualifying in a range of therapies including Systematic Kinesiology, Reflexology and Crystal Therapy. I have been working as a therapist since 2005 and have been teaching the Foundation course for the last two years. I teach some Adult Learning courses and the Reflexology Diploma and Practice Management at the Raworth Centre in Dorking. Kinesiology forms the keystone to my Holistic practice and I look forward to developing new and exciting courses in the future.

I enjoy expanding my awareness and understanding throughout the whole field of alternative health and well being. I combine my 'old' educational skills with my new, enabling me to make my therapies exciting and accessible to my students.

 

 
Trevor Gale Dip.ASK

I qualified as a Systematic Kinesiologist in 1991 and went into full-time practice in 1995, seeing clients on a referral basis.  In 1998, I started teaching Touch For Health and have been a SAK tutor teaching Systematic Kinesiology since 2003.  In addition to my training in Kinesiology, I also have qualifications in massage, aromatherapy, and I have the Football Association certificates for the treatment and rehabilitation of sports injuries.  In 2001, I was appointed as one of the five Trustees of ASK.  My on-going professional development is particularly focused on the structural and biochemical aspects of kinesiology and the use of electromagnetic energy for dealing with structural and electromagnetic conditions.  

Sally Prestwich PhD, Dip.ASK, Associate ICAK-UK, ILTM

I qualified as a Systematic Kinesiologist in 1995 and started teaching the Systematic Kinesiology Foundation and Diploma courses the same year; completed my clinical competence and the 100 hours ICAK-UK Applied Kinesiology course in 1998.  In 2001 I became a Trustee for the Association of Systematic Kinesiology (ASK) and founded the 'School of Advanced Kinesiology' (SAK).  During this time I rewrote and updated the SAK Diploma course to incorporate new techniques acquired from ICAK.  I also teach courses on primitive reflexes, in addition to other postgraduate teaching.  I am a member of the learning and teaching Institute (ILTM) which is now part of the Higher Education Academy.  

During the weekend and evenings I see clients on a referral basis, and during the week I work as a Lecturer at St George's, University of London where I teach pharmacology and physiology to medical, pharmacy and BSc students, as well as paramedics and nurses.  I also run a special study module entitled the 'Integration of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) with conventional medicine'.  One of my long term aims is to encourage all medical students to discover CAM therapies by experiencing them, looking at research studies and anecdotal evidence.  This will enable them to then use this knowledge proactively, either alongside conventional therapies or as an alternative, when treating their patients. 

I am presently updating my nutritional knowledge to BSc level; listen to self help CD's by many speakers including Caroline Myss, Deepak Chopra and Wayne Dyer as well as attending various Kinesiology and functional biochemistry courses to continue my professional development.


Beatrix Goodman Dip. ASK., I.O.N. Cert., Reki Master, Austrian Energy

 

I have been interested in working with Subtle Energies for more than twenty years, practising Yoga, Tai Chi, Qi-Gong and Dowsing initially. The urge of wanting to broaden my horizon increased dramatically after the birth and challenges of my son in 1991 and I started to learn about Reflexology and Massage. In 1995 I began my formal training in Systematic Kinesiology in London and started my practice in Surrey. Since then I have trained and incorporated several other therapies like Nutrition, Bach Flower Therapy, Reiki & Seichim/Master, Indian Head Massage, Aqua-Detox and postgraduate training in Kinesiology.  Furthermore, I have been an instructor for the Academy of Systematic Kinesiology and have been teaching Kinesiology in Central London, Surrey, Bristol and Sevenoaks. Since I relocated to Wadhurst, East Sussex in 2003 I have been busy setting up my new practice and courses in Indian Head Massage, as well as teaching Kinesiology up to Diploma level. I have also undertaken studies in Bio-Chemistry, Homeopathy and EFT/Emotional Freedom Technique as well as organising body/mind/spirit health events in Kent & East Sussex. The latest development was to train in and incorporate Austrian Energy Therapy/Körbler Symbols with which remarkable results can be achieved!

My journey started in the year 2000 on discovering Kinesiology when I experienced a renewed enthusiasm for life.   Ailments can look the same on paper yet the treatment changes with every individual.  I love being a detective in the body.  Everyday is exciting.  Everyday is an adventure.  New discoveries are constantly being made. 

Each student has their own particular style and their own unique personality.  As a teacher I believe it is my role to help them express this through their work.  I encourage students to experience their own passion in their work.  This creates a joyful working life.  Clients will visit you not only as a Kinesiolgist but for your own special approach and manner. 

I love teaching Kinesiology.  It is a privillage to watch the amazement as students realise the power of the techniques they are learning.  Students flourish as individuals.  Be prepared for a wonderful journey.   

 

 Petrina Clarke Cert. ASK

 

My journey started after obtaining a qualification in health and beauty, with which I opened my own successful private Clinic in 1990. I developed a passion for holistic therapies as their properties proved very beneficial to my clients health and well being. This led me to sharing my knowledge with others, opening a new avenue to teaching. I completed a Cert ED degree at Exeter University in higher education about 12 years ago. I started teaching Swedish massage and aromatherapy part time at Exeter College, while running my own practice in complimentary therapies.

With 20 years experience behind me I currently work as an examiner for BABTAC (British association of beauty technology & cosmetology) which involves examining many different holistic therapies in colleges around the world.

In 2005 I studied and started practicing kinesiology. On discovering kinesiology I have found this therapy to be the most profound and extremely beneficial, in improving health, reducing pain in a short period of time, while using gentle, simple techniques with astonishing results. Kinesiology has enhanced my life and enabled me to share so much more to others. This holistic therapy has inspired me to run and teach a systematic kinesiology foundation course.

The Devon Kinesiology Centre offers students a wealth of knowledge and experience. The course is well balanced with practical demonstrations, workshops and theory.
