About the Moves4Me Programme:
“My 16-year-old son Kavish has been working with Leanne as he has dyslexia and many of his reflexes were needing work. Kavish talks of feeling differences and benefits from the exercises he has had to do. It can be challenging getting him to follow the routine, but Leanne has a great way with encouraging and supporting his efforts. Leanne is awesome at explaining what she is doing, and there is so much backing her techniques that I wish all schools would implement the program as a basis for Foundations for learning!!! Thanks Leanne!!!” Sujata (on FB)
“My daughters’ speech is amazing, and she is processing information faster. A huge improvement in language. She now uses words in different contexts.” Kim
“Our son was diagnosed with High Functioning Autism and (inattentive) ADHD at the age of 9. It explained many things that had puzzled me about his development that the GP, teachers, Speech Therapist and others had not picked up on or taken seriously. As he was increasingly struggling at school, the Paediatrician wanted to put him on Ritalin which I had mixed feelings about. I heard about Without Limits Learning and wanted to see if completing this Moves4Me programme could lift him out of requiring Ritalin by training his brain and body. The results have been startling and after a year of dedicated commitment to the exercises as guided by Leanne, his reassessment with the Paediatrician resulted in him no longer meeting the requirement or recommendation for Ritalin as his attention and behaviour at school had improved significantly. How amazing to be able to give someone the ability to not rely on drugs to cope. His school report at end of year 7 had him passing every subject for the first time. I absolutely credit Leanne’s program with vastly improving his concentration and co-ordination and recommend any kid who is having issues related to being on the spectrum to participate in this Moves4Me programme. Leanne is so good with him, and I feel very lucky and glad to have discovered the Moves4Me programme. We have been so impressed with the results, we have decided to continue with the next stage, which is an Advanced Moves4Me programme to continue to enhance his development. Thank you, Leanne, for everything you’ve done and for supporting us in each set of exercises, the investment has been well worth it. We love having our son drug free and thriving!” Tracie (on FB)
