Video Case Studies
The videos are intended to show a number of students progressing from beginning sessions to later workshops or sessions. Each student is different. Some begin smoothly and continue smoothly. Others begin in what seems to be a "tornado" and ends in a "calm lake." In respect to students I have strived to maintain their dignity so I have kept off scenes that may embarrass them. These are not "study subjects," but humans. I used "case study" for lack of a better term. These videos are just to help you as you start or continue your journey, you can see that if your child chooses or miss aims a lot at the first that later it will be a night and day difference. If your child starts out kicking and screaming, that can completely change. This also shows the provider learning overtime as well.
Be aware that some students progressed to higher levels before the time of the second video.
