Becoming a Sponsor

If you would like to make a difference in a child’s life or in the life of an adult who has been compromised by a stroke or brain injury, contact Cecilia Koester by email. She travels the world in an effort to make life a little less of a struggle for anyone who is interested. A dear friend of hers once said, “If you don’t want your life to change, don’t take classes with Cecilia!”

Cecilia travels the world by sponsorship invitation. Besides the teaching fee, sponsors are responsible for marketing and registration of students for the class, travel expenses, food and a translator, if necessary. They retain the remainder of course income to offset their expenses and pay themselves for their time and energy, while attending the class for free. It’s a win-win opportunity. Contact Cecilia for schedule openings.

Course manuals are sold by sponsors. Brain Gym® for Special Needs Providers and Movement Based Learning for Children of All Abilities have been translated into: Spanish, French, Malay, Japanese, Mandarin Chinese, Russian, Dutch, German and Italian. They are presently being translated into Catalan and Slovenian.

Testimonials

“Cece has an ability to work a room with purpose. As I watched her and participated in this class I learned not only the activities from Brain Gym® and how/when to use them––I also became calmer within myself. Thank you Cece, from the bottom of my heart, for pausing long enough to touch, accept and teach my son.”

“This course offers the most vital information and tools for living in our own body with comfort and ease of learning and functioning. I noticed so many positive changes in myself during this course that I know will bleed over into my professional (and personal) life. I am more relaxed; able to formulate and receive information; more playful; and I’m feeling more equipped to work with special needs children.”

“Cece is kind, well-qualified and demonstrated the value of her message, i.e. as we are more grounded and centered in ourselves we are then able to reach out to others and participate and assist in their learning. I’ve learned many new skills/strategies and developed confidence in my own instincts. This class is very versatile for all my ages/abilities—-even for self-improvement—-everyone can benefit."

“After taking this course, my eyes are open wider and I can assist the children and explore their potential/ possibilities so they can reach their greatest reality. This course gently invites you to enhance learning and function within the classroom by using natural body movements. This course was Cece’s book, I Am the Child coming alive…and so much more. I am so eager to absorb all the new material from her new book, Movement Based Learning for Children of All Abilities”

“My enthusiasm for my work in the special education classroom has been renewed. I now have an awareness of noticing that will get stronger over time. I have some foundational pieces that Cece calls Building Blocks that will get me to the heart of a child’s problem much more quickly.”
