South Africa fired up by K-Power® originally by the ICPKP Webmaster 10:10 AM, 9 March 2007 NZDT last edited 10:24 AM, 9 March 2007 NZDT Bruce and Joan recently returned from South Africa where they have been teaching their Red Flags workshop and trialling their new K-Power® workshops. Margie Donde, course convenor and principal of the Specialised Kinesiology College of South Africa writes: Dr Bruce and Joan Dewe spent 5 intense days teaching their new K-power workshops in Johannesburg.  There was a fantastic response to their courses with 22 people attending a jam packed intense five days covering 13 new workshops. The K-power series, designed to allow Kinesiologists to teach simple life changing techniques, included workshops on stress, behavioural genetics, co-dependency, Tibetan energy, flower essences the basics of 5 elements and muscle and joint protocols. Bruce enthralled the participants with his passion and stories while Joan’s clear, straightforward and step by step teaching made learning all the new information effortless even in the heat wave. Saturday and Sunday was spent covering the information from “Red Flags to Treatment”, one of the workshops required for the ICPKP diploma course.  The 31 participants learned valuable information about when to refer a client and what to be aware of when presented with different symptoms by a client. While we were sorry that the week had come to an end and we needed to say goodbye to “old” and “new” friends we were enriched with fresh enthusiasm to spread K-power far and wide and to apply our new information. Our grateful thanks to Bruce and Joan for their passion, enthusiasm and generosity in sharing their immense knowledge with all of us and giving so much of themselves in the process.

We received the following email from the workshop organisers, the team at "Schweizerisches Zentrum für Kinesiologie©“ (Basel and Rapperswil): "Many students from the whole of Europe came to the Red Flags Workshop in Basel. We are having a nice summer in Switzerland, so the visitors were able to enjoy the beautiful town next to the river. The weekend was full of information which Bruce presented in his charming passionate way of teaching. He showed us the "Do’s and Don’ts” of a Professional Kinesiology Practice and we all learned how to recognise things outside the scope of kinesiology - like medical emergencies. Bruce, we thank you very much for these wonderful days in Basel!” Klicken Sie hier für Deutsch FAC I New Zealand a Great Success originally by the ICPKP Webmaster 12:09 PM, 19 June 2006 NZST last edited 12:16 PM, 19 June 2006 NZST Faculty Training Level 1 was held in NZ during late January - early February 2006 with 14 participants from 9 countries. The standard of preparation by candidates was high and everyone benefited through getting the perspective of people from different countries and cultures. The ICPKP syllabus is the same around the world, leading to the ICPKP International Diploma in Kinesiology; it is important that consistency of teaching be maintained so that students are able to start the course in one country and seamlessly continue in another country, for example. This is aided by Dr Bruce and Joan Dewe continually upgrading the Class Notes and Assessment Journals and making them available on the ICPKP website for accredited colleges to download for teaching. In July, the FAC 2 workshop will be held near Oslo, Norway, once again with participants from 9 countries. It is not all work at FAC as the photos from the Jazz Streetfest in Auckland show Faculty doing the conga-line.
