I have been involved in amateur and community arts as a performer, teacher and director for over twenty-five years. My performing arts background includes Expressive Ballet, Dalcroze Eurythmics, Afro-jazz, Drama, Music and Exercise techniques. My study and clinical practice of Occupational Therapy over the last 20 years has provided me with knowledge of child development, and specific support needs. I graduated as an undergraduate in 1988 and completed an Occupational Therapy Masters in 1999 about the performing arts as leisure. I set up Spring into Action in Melbourne in 2000. I have a wonderful network of artists and facilitators for classes and workshops including Robyn, Choreographer/Dance Teacher and Anne, Early Intervention Teacher.
