What Colour is your dragon?

Between 2019 and 2023, I worked with Dr Tamara Russell from the Mindfulness Centre of Excellence as Head of Education on an innovative programme designed for schools and communities. The programme focuses on equipping children with practical tools to develop emotional intelligence.

What Colour Is Your Dragon? is a trauma-informed approach to wellbeing that uses creative arts and movement. It is particularly suited to children aged 3–11.

I developed a curriculum for primary schools based on Dr Russell’s method, integrating neuroscience, mindfulness, creativity, and movement into a cohesive and engaging learning experience. The Neurscience I learnt during this time still informs my work with children and young people today.
