At the core of it all is Cathie Summerford, President and Founder of FIT4LEARNING. Cathie holds several degrees and credentials: Calif. Single Subject – Physical Education, Multiple Subject, and Adaptive P.E. teaching credentials; a Masters degree in Instructional Technology; a Masters degree in Adapted Physical Education; and she's a Jensen Learning Master Level Brain Compatible Trainer.
She has engaged learners internationally, with action, movement, and music in her dynamic keynote presentations and workshops. She is a trailblazer and author in her field and her energetic approach to teaching has livened up learning in countless classrooms globally. She is the author of Action Packed Classrooms and PE-4-ME: Teaching Lifelong Health and Fitness.
Cathie has been named Teacher of the Year in California, National Association for Sports & Physical Education (NASPE) Teacher of the Year, and California School Board Association (CSBA) Golden Bell award winner.
Her expertise in brain research and the implications motion has on learning & retention, combined with her enthusiasm for teaching children, make her an excellent source of inspiration.
Cathie's rapid-fire presentations focus on involvement. They move quickly, cover a lot of ground, and actively engage the participants. As a result, teachers leave her workshops with dozens of practical ideas and with a renewed love for teaching!
In addition, she has over 18 years quality experience of teaching all levels; from pre-school to college-age. Her tried-and-true activities are "kid-proof" and "adult-friendly" and always loads of fun. On top of it, she is a 2X IRONMAN Triathlon finisher!
