TESTIMONIALS

"Wendy Jones presented a comprehensive k-12 Physical Education workshop that met and exceeded my expectations. Tools, ideas, and best practices were shared with specific examples that were relevant to each level of elementary, middle, and high school. Examples of Mission/Vision statements were presented which help us examine our current Mission statement and make revisions as needed. She also stressed the importance of each level working collaboratively to develop a comprehensive k-12 program that meets all the goals and objectives set forth by our District. Wendy's encouraging and positive attitude was evident throughout the workshop!" - (Physical Education)

"I highly recommend Brenda Goodwin's workshop. She is full of energy and has a passion for incorporating dance and technology into the PE classroom. Brenda taught me many valuable ideas that will be implemented next school year. Thank you Brenda!" -(Physical Education)

"I recently attended your workshop in Atlanta and I must say it was fun and invigorating. I wanted to get a copy of the interactive game where you shake hands (happy salmon, statue of liberty) I don't remember the rest. If I could get that, I greatly appreciate it." Noreen C. (After School)

"Don Glover is an excellent presenter. He makes sure you are understanding of his ideas and teaches you how to implement them in your classroom. Mr. Glover also taught us some fun new team building exercises to go with his team approach in the gym. I cannot wait to use it next year in my classroom! Thank you, Don, and the PE Central team."

Everything she did was with little equipment and if it did involve equipment she showed them how they can make i"Misti was terrific because she showed our teachers exciting activity ideas that they can implement in their programs without breaking the bank for purchasing PE equipment.

Enjoyed competing in 2 square against you (I'm the one who was in light purple). Lol! Had fun, great hands-on class. One of my faves! Thanks." Leigh B. (After School)

We appreciate you working with us to get him to present. One of the best PD’s for our teachers in a long time!" -Amy C. (Physical Education)

"I wanted to thank you for the great presentation last week. My students really enjoyed the entire experience, and have been referring to some of the points in our class lectures.
