Barbara is a gifted and inspiring tutor who ensured that we understood each aspect of the varied subjects

I attended the 2025 Kinesiology Association’s Foundation course with tutor Barbara. This was a 6-module course over 6 months. I had always wanted to find out more about Kinesiology, and this course is a lot more than an introduction. It gives you detailed instructions on the basis of kinesiology and how to apply it.

There is so much information, and I found the course with Barbara totally fascinating. Barbara is a gifted and inspiring tutor who ensured that we understood each aspect of the varied subjects and with a dedication to practical exercises and experience.

Kinesiology and its many benefits were brought to life from Barbara’s own experiences as a practitioner, which is so important to me as a student, to be able to see real-life applications to go with the learning from our KA manuals.

The course required home study between modules, and Barbara was such a supportive tutor, both in sessions and between sessions. Barbara, this is a 5-star recommendation for being such a great tutor for this complex and remarkable methodology of Kinesiology.

I now feel I have amazing tools to start my journey in practicing Kinesiology!

I was very nervous starting a new qualification while already balancing work & a young family. Barbara, however, was such a warm & welcoming human who made me feel at ease straight away. I felt very comfortable in asking questions, which Barbara answered without making me feel uncomfortable or silly. I now feel I have amazing tools to start my journey in practicing Kinesiology!

Meeting her has pushed me so much to believe in myself!

Well what can I say. Barbara is such an empathetic, knowledgeable practitioner. She gives 110 % to what she does and delivers her training with such passion and guidance.

Meeting her has pushed me so much to believe in myself and doing this course at a time in my life with lots of stressful situations in my life has been a challenge. But she has mentored me along the way and given me the strength to carry on.
I really feel that I was meant to meet her at this time in my life and I’m so grateful that I have.

I can’t wait to start my journey as a Kinesiology therapist and learn more. This is the start of an exciting journey!
Thank you Barbara

Barbara was also amazingly flexible in responding to the needs of her students.

I have just completed a Foundation Course in Kinesiology with Barbara. I really enjoyed learning about our bodies and both exploring and discovering what this discipline can offer. The course was truly fascinating.

During the five months Barbara took us through the course curriculum and provided us with the necessary skills to practice on each other and then on other people. With Barbara’s expert guidance, and involvement where necessary, we were able to help and balance each other during the sessions. There were often ‘wow’ moments when we acknowledged the power of kinesiology in helping to help individuals.

We were a small group and loved working together, each bringing a different perspective. Barbara was very adept at handling our numerous questions. Barbara was also amazingly flexible in responding to the needs of her students.  It was a course where we learned so much, laughed a great deal, and lead each other onto new heights! Thank you Barbara.

Barbara is a wonderful teacher, who listens, is intuitive, caring and supportive….as well as very knowledgeable and honest.

I attended the kinesiology course run by Barbara and it has been eye opening and has brought a new perspective to particular things in life, especially on a spiritual and energetic level. I learnt so much about myself too as well as a new awareness and knowledge about the body that it will be forever part of me now. As a qualified counsellor and massage therapist, kinesiology has added tools to my practice that gives clients even more benefits to unlocking their full potential. Barbara is a wonderful teacher, who listens, is intuitive, caring and supportive….as well as very knowledgeable and honest.

Thank you Barbara…..its been a journey and a continuing one! : )

Doing the foundation course with Barbara was the best decision ever!

Her teaching was great and she was always so patient and understanding with everyone! I will miss the enjoyable lessons and hope to find another teacher like her for the rest of my studies. This Foundation course has given me so much knowledge and I’m already able to help people in a way I never thought I could!

The patience and kindness that Barbara shows assisted me to be able to start moving through my PTSD, to feeling confident enough to take the exam.

What can I say about my experience with the Kinesiology Foundation Course with Barbara? I went from Day One not wanting to even speak about myself or being able to express my feelings, to passing my exam on Day Twelve! The teaching, wisdom and help that I received made this achievable. The patience and kindness that Barbara shows assisted me to be able to start moving through my PTSD, to feeling confident enough to take the exam.

The treatments that you give and receive every session helped my brain to start to store memory, so I could retain the information I needed. I cannot explain in words how much this course has improved my life, and in so many ways. I thank you Barbara & I wish you greatness for your future courses & great work.
