The case for training

The most cost-effective way to reach more young people.

Bringing in an external specialist helps the young people in the room that day. Training your own staff helps every young person they work with, for years. Movement mentoring is built to be learned and embedded - so the capability stays in your setting long after the training ends.

One trained member of staff can reach dozens of young people a year. A trained team can change the culture of a setting.

For schools, SEND units, alternative provision, care services, and local authorities, this is the difference between a short-term intervention and a lasting change in how you support your most complex young people.

Who can train the method

You don't need to be fit, strong, or to have ever boxed. The training is built for the people already in these young people's lives:

List:

Teachers, teaching assistants, SENCOs, and inclusion leads
PE teachers and sports staff
Therapists, occupational therapists, and behavioural support workers
Staff in SEND units, alternative provision, and pupil referral units
Residential care and children's home staff
Youth workers, youth justice teams, and early-help practitioners
Local authority and integrated care board teams developing SEND and inclusion provision
Parents and carers, including those home-educating

What the training covers

Trainees learn two modes of delivery so that they can adapt to the person in front of them. Adjustments for sensory differences, anxiety, attachment difficulties, PDA profiles, and combinations of these are included. New lessons are added regularly, and trained practitioners keep accessing them through ongoing Peaceable membership.

Micro Workshops

For young people who can engage with discussion.

Trainees learn to deliver five core social and emotional lessons in the short windows between padwork rounds:

List:

Reading a room.
Managing conflict.
Spotting and managing people who don't have your best interests at heart
Regulating emotions and building bridges

Multi-sensory padwork

For young people with more complex physical and mental needs, including those who can't engage with talk or seated learning.

Trainees learn to pair movement with counting, sound, and rhythm - building body awareness, focus, and regulation through the senses rather than through words.

They learn how to keep the structure predictable and repeatable so a dysregulated young person feels safe, and how to use rhythm itself as a calming tool.

For organisations and funders

We work with organisations to train staff teams at scale — embedding movement mentoring across a school, a service, or a whole local area. We can train a lead team who then cascade the method to colleagues, with our ongoing support, so the capability spreads and sustains.

For local authorities, integrated care boards, and funders, this is a high-impact, lasting investment: training builds permanent capability, reaches young people who are otherwise hardest and most expensive to support, and generates clear outcomes we track and report.
