    BodyTalk and High School Football

    When a High School Football Coach recognizes the value of BodyTalk, everyone's a winner! I've been visiting a local high school in Los Angeles recently to attend to football players' aches, pains, and injuries. The football coach has allowed me to work on the players so that I can begin to build a practice working with teams. The head coach allowed Lauren Brim and me to teach cortices and tell the team about BodyTalk.

    Anja Sebasio (née Veltheim)

    It is my pleasure to introduce myself as the newest member of the IBA Australasia team. Although I am a new employee, I am not in any way new to BodyTalk; being John Velthieim's (BodyTalk's founder) daughter and Christopher Veltheim's (CMO) older sister. I grew up in Brisbane, Australia, spending most of my childhood playing sport, never focusing on any one in particular. Instead, I preferred playing at least three different sports at any given time of the year. Living 200 yards away from a sports complex allowed my love of sport to thrive.
