I really enjoyed this workshop and have gained an incredible amount of positive information. I can't wait to apply/use in the Academy
You have given me motivation to go back to my school with refreshed and new ideas to help our girls. Thank you so so much!

It was great that we had time to stretch and laugh and that we were having a discussion rather than being talked at! My most memorable Professional Development. Perfect and thank you
