Reflections of a First Year Student | originally by the ICPKP Webmaster 11:15 AM, 17 March 2015 NZDT last edited 10:05 AM, 18 March 2015 NZDT | Students and faculty of SKCSA gather around some of goods donated to the Orkney Establishment. Babsie is in the front row, second from the right.
Babsie Nothnagel completed the first year of her PKP™ studies in 2014 and has written a fascinating account of her year for the blog of her college, Specialised Kinesiology College of South Africa. Her article gives an interesting insight into the personal journey of studying Professional Kinesiology Practice. Here are a few excerpts from Babsie's article, and you can click here to read the full blog post.
"Starting off as first year students at Specialised Kinesiology South Africa, we encountered a roller coaster ride for the first six months from “O yeah, I completely get it!!!!!!” to “Whaaaaaaaaat?????!!!"
Fortunately, in the end, we all got it – thanks to our amazing teachers, who maintained sanity throughout the challenging journey of Kinesiology. And so Margie, Angie and Gabby guided us through the process of development, working towards the ease of muscle testing, and circuits. Always there to assure us –“Yes, it is a long process, and our confidence and skills will grow with practice and time”, they were constantly putting us at ease."
"A highlight of the year: Uniting as fellow students, humans, friends, with assistance of the college, to give one of the greatest gift of all – unconditional giving with open hearts, reaching out to those in need. The warmth and kindness with which the students extended their generosity, in raising funds for the Orkney Establishment (home for abused woman and their children) left all hearts filled with joy – joy and appreciation, knowing that kindness, love and light, will always take precedence over the dark, when we allow ourselves to be embraced by the passion of life."
