To excel professionally and be of maximum service and benefit to others it is vital to pursue one's innate curiosity, intuition and inspiration. Education is of maximum value when in service to all three. Following my own curiosity, intuition and inspiration has led to an education ranging from anatomy, biomechanics and physiology, to health and fitness, Pilates and yoga, physical rehabilitation and positive psychology, the Feldenkrais Method and somatic re-education, theology and spiritual wellbeing, and finally, putting it all together, overall quality of life. I have read, studied and learned not because I had to but because I wanted to. Along my journey of learning I discovered the traditional form of education known as apprenticeship. Apprenticeship provided access to the knowledge I most wanted to learn, knew would be of tremendous value to those I worked with and was difficult to find anywhere else. It's an an intimate educational process working directly with your mentor and requires not only study but "hands on" work and "real world" teaching as part of the curriculum. And, most importantly, I learned how to actually teach or, to put it more accurately, how to assist others to bring out their own innate intelligence and wisdom, the inborn guidance that is already inside them, they just don’t know it yet. As the brilliant Moeshe Feldenkrais said, “You can’t teach anyone anything, you can only create the conditions in which they can learn.” I have had the great fortune to work with amazing mentors and to learn so much with such diversity. I continue to be inspired to learn more and apply that learning to my teaching.
