I originally trained as a teacher over twenty years ago. My specialist subject and passion is PSHE (Personal Social Health Education). I then went on to become a consultant and trainer working with schools, supporting them to develop a whole school approach to the health and wellbeing of both pupils and staff and in achieving Healthy Schools accreditation.
For me being a meditation teacher pulled all of the skills and knowledge I have gained over the years as a teacher and trainer which brought me full circle back to meditation. I am really looking forward to sharing my experience and providing training and support to those wishing to become an accredited Meditation Teacher.
The South East courses are offered from our home just outside Herne Bay, 4 miles east of Whitstable along the coast, and 9 miles from Canterbury. The Old Cottage is a grade 11 listed building and an historic building of Kent, dating back to the very early 1600s. The cottage has a number of original features, and an extension that was built on in the 1920s which includes the sun room we use for our courses. The sun room opens on to the garden, extending the space and benefitting from the big skies and beautiful light and air you find in this part of the country. The sea is about 500 metres down the road, and the sunsets are well worth waiting for. If you wish to stay overnight we can recommend a number of places to stay, visit and eat.
Testimonials
I had a very good experience with Mary at the British School of Meditation. Her classes are warm, welcoming, friendly, interactive and very enjoyable. She offers a great learning environment to do this qualification and also provides the remote support needed for completing the coursework at home to a high very high standard. I found the venue in London to be very well situated, very easy to get to via public transport, a very nice, clean, pleasant and safe place to be with ideal facilities. During the course some personal problems came up as they do and Mary was extremely positive and supportive regarding my situation which gave me great confidence in continuing with the qualification of which I completed with Distinction so I am very grateful. If you would like to do your qualification with an open minded and genuinely kind hearted individual then Mary is your Tutor. Thanks Mary, Michael Armstrong student 2019
