Tamara's Ethos:

Engage, Try your best. Keep moving. Move Mindfully (care + attention).

With these intentions, it is possible for everyone to find their innner martial (he)artist.

I am currenting putting all my content into my new Dragon Academy App.

This will be a "dojo+psychology service in your pocket" where I will offer the following three ways to study the most important movements that help us to be well and thrive.

Currently Available:

Monthly FOCUS:SPRINTS. Learn how the study of mental movements will help you manage your mind and increase your mindfulness skills.

This is a course that guides you through the three core brain networks that underpin the four cognitive stages of mindfulness.

You will learn about the brain, complete and practice and use a worksheet to reflect on your learning.

Just 10 minutes a day to tame and train your brain. The in-app community and private FB group provides you with a place to ask questions and share insights. It's like having Tamara in your pocket! Click here for information and sign up. We also have weekly live masterclasses (on zoom).
