Different Strokes Trainer (Stephen) Practical Course Feedback
 I've done 3 DS classes since I did the course with you, though now have a break over the summer. The ARNI exercises I have introduced seemed to have gone down well. It does push people more outside their comfort zones. My impression is most stroke survivors work around their disabilities rather than addresses them and thus making an impovement!!
The knowledge I gained from those two days has certainly helped my confidence with the group and allowed me to emphathise with them better. It also makes a difference to their lives. There was a woman there today who sees a personal trainer each week. I showed her how to recover from lying on her bad side, which see thought she wouldn't be able to do. Then I got her to stand up unaided using your method. She said she never thought she'd be able to get up from the floor without the aid of a chair, but she managed it first time! So great stuff, and I look forward to learning more.
Thanks
Stephen
