	Martin Lehmkuhl Kristensen (VIAUC) I am 29 years old married and a proud father of two strapping boys. The connection between body, thought and feeling has always intrigued me. Therefore after doing different jobs some years following high school I started studying Psychomotor Therapy in Randers. It is my third year as a PMT student and I am looking forward getting an international view on my profession. In my opinion the IP is one of the best ways to develop myself professionally and personally, before I go into the “real world”.

	My name is Chantal Brands (Windesheim) and I am 22 years old. I live in a little city Zaltbommel with my boyfriend. It’s almost two ours travelling to Zwolle. Luckily, I have three days internship in Brabant and two days school. So I do not mind to sit in the train wile I read a magazine our book. This year I had my comeback as a gymnast, after quitting for 2/3 years. The first practise was very hard but I realised that really mist my sport. I started artistic gymnastics when I was six years old so for me it is very difficult to stop forever. In 2009, I have become a coach from a little team of motivated gymnasts. I really like to coach the girls and teach them different elements and new tricks.Before I studied psychomotor therapy, I studied in Arnhem at CIOS to become a sport teacher. However, it wasn’t enough for me so I decided to go to the university Windesheim at Zwolle, to learn more about psychomotor therapy.There many other things I like to do when I’m not busy with school. I love to cook, I really like to paint and chatting with my friends and drink a nice cup of tea. I also like to shop with girlfriends.I am very exiting to learn from all the other teachers and students I am looking forward to the program in Holland and meeting all new people.
	Hello everybody how is joining the International Program! My name is Hannah Hamhuis (Windesheim) and I am following the study Psychomotricity in Zwolle. I live in a little place called Olst, this is 15 minutes by train, so it’s not so far away! I live there with my parents and sister. If I don’t go to school or do homework I like to play tennis and volleyball, this is at Respoc, the sport organization at our school. At home I go for 1 hour in the week to a jumping group, here I am jumping on all kinds of trampolines and I really like it! I am very curious about the IP, meet new people, get in contact with different cultures and of course different visions about Psychomotricity. I will see you in August and first enjoy your holiday!
	My name is Mike Khaled (ISRP)
	My name is Ezra Strikwerda (Windesheim). I’m 23 years old and I’m in my second year at Windesheim. So far everything regarding PMT has been an area of interest to me and I enjoy learning new things, which almost seems to happen on a daily basis. Besides that I’m interested in cars, motorcycles and the likes. Driving them is the main fun but I also like to get my hands dirty under the hood. We never know exactly what the future will brings us but I think I can safely say that we’re in for a very enjoyable, educational and memorable time together at this years IP. Learning from each other, perhaps ourselves, and having a great time doing just that is what I see as the main objective of this IP. Besides all that I’m very much looking forward to meeting all the other participants. Let’s have a great time together!
	Anna-Thit Brünings-Hansen (VIAUC) My name is Anna Thit and I am 23 years old. I chose the education PMT because of my interest in mind and body.

	My name is Loes Peters (Windesheim) and I am 19 years old. One year ago I moved to Zwolle. I usually go every weekend to my parents and brother in Hengelo. I like it to go every weekend to Hengelo, because a few friends live there also.Every Thursday evening and Saturday I work in a shoe shop In Zwolle. Here I have really lovely colleagues, so I go to my work with pleasure. My hobbies are practicing different sports like gymnastics, tennis, swimming and volleyball. I practice these sports in a sport organization called Respoc that is a sport organization of Windesheim. The reason why I have started studying psychomotor therapy is because I am very interested in the people who simply can’t participate in everyday activities and sports. Through exercises in the gym, pool, outside, in groups or individual, I find it nice to see how you can help people and see de differences between the first time you saw someone and after a therapy session. When I see a little progress by a person who is in therapy it makes me happy. In the two weeks we’re all together I hope I will learn a lot about de visions you have about the profession and to learn from each other. I am looking forward to it! See you all in August!

	Hi everybody! My name is Simone Geuijen, I’m 20 years old and I study at the HAN in Nijmegen. I think psychomotor therapy is a phenomenal profession because it’s so different from other studies.

	Hello Everyone! My name is Nadine Veldhuis and I’m 21 years old. I study psychomotor therapy on the HAN in Nijmegen. My interests for this Wonderful profession began to grow together with my love for horses. Horses are master in reading body language and giving body signals. Because I wanted to understand horses better I studied their behavior and psychology. More and more I began to see the similarities between horse and human. I experienced that the horses helped me to understand my body better. I thought that if there is a way that I can learn more about how to help people through movement, body directing and psychology. Than I can bring this together with the knowledge I have from horses and have a fantastic way of giving therapy. At this moment this study gives me everything I need to achieve my goal. I’m looking forward to be inspired by different views of different countries. And I can’t wait to meet you all. See you in August.
