New Kinesiology for Wellness Instructors in the UK | originally by the ICPKP Webmaster 10:11 AM, 10 December 2012 NZDT last edited 10:27 AM, 10 December 2012 NZDT | FAC1 UK, L-R: Rona Holland, Penny Davey, Katie Rossi, Denise Gurney, Lucy Ryan From December 2-5 students attended Part A of the FAC 1 faculty training, held for the first time in UK. Penny Davey, Katie Rossi, Lucy Ryan and Rona Holland were all training to become Instructors of the ICPKP Certificate in Self Care and the Certificate in Kinesiology for Wellness. ICPKP Faculty Trainer, Denise Gurney, led the candidates through a challenging week of learning, growth and change of their stature from students to teachers. Denise closed the meeting with an adaptation of a quote “It makes no sense in teaching (people) particular skills, approaches or fad-of-the-month interventions. Instead we should build their core capacities, so that they are able to meet unanticipated challenges and tailor their responses to specific situations”. The leaders that Carol Pearson was talking about, are our clients and our ICPKP colleagues. The FAC training was about building those core capacities for the new Instructors who will take ICPKP forward in the 21st century.
Denise Gurney presents Lucy Ryan with her certificate. Here are some comments from the candidates on completing FAC 1 Part A:
“I have just completed the first part of the FAC 1 training with Denise Gurney, UK ICPKP Faculty Trainer and first Kinesiopractor® in the Northern Hemisphere! It was an amazing and inspiring few days, and I came away having learned a huge amount, both about teaching PKP and being a PKP practitioner. Denise is so supportive and encouraging, and is brilliant at teaching the material and helping people achieve their goals (including ones they didn't think they ever would!). It was also wonderful to get together with fellow PKP-ers, old and new. I am very much looking forward to part 2 in January, and to teaching the PKP Certificate early next year."
Penny Davey
"We had a fantastic and extremely informative FAC 1 training with Denise over the past few days. The move from practitioner to teacher is an interesting one to say the least and Denise had so much experience and insight to share with us I cannot thank her enough. It will make the transition so much smoother for us all when we set up our own colleges and, as a bonus the training was made richer with Lucy joining us. Already looking forward to part b in January."
