By providing education in movement competency, education on using movement to develop the ability to be self-regulated and motivated, and education through movement to develop ‘habits of mind’ for positive and constructive engagement with others, PE provides a basis for personal and community health and wellbeing.

Whether it’s the ability to tell (and sell) a story for a performance outcome, to bring the group together, or the skill of connecting with kids through child friendly language, communication is key.​In any session, coaches will make mistakes just like players.
