The Nimble Arts Method
The Nimble Arts 'method' begins with the simple concept - that we work with the heart first and then the body and that each person learns differently & has different physical abilities. Then we adjust the experience accordingly.
It follows that we:
-
teach a culture of safety (everyone is involved with creating a safe environment)
-
give a sense of security (work at your own comfort level/pace)
-
encourage self-assessment (listen to your body)
-
allow self-determination (needs of the student pre-empt the goals of the teacher)
​
We look forward to sharing.
