From Our Parents...
"Our son has been taking classes with Chagua for the past three years since the age of four. Over this time he has made exceptional progress. Developmentally our son was behind both physically and socially which together conspired to isolate him from his peers and hinder his confidence. Through a combination of activities which addressed his particular challenges, high expectations and attention to his emotional needs our son has made fantastic progress. Physically he has now caught up to his peers. He successfully participates in a number of sports and physical activities including playing on a soccer team with his classmates. Most importantly, he now has confidence in his body and is willing to try new things. He has grown into a still quiet, but much more confident, spirited boy."
"My son has been working with Chagua for over a year. When he first met Chagua he has severe sensory integration problems. He is a different child today. Chagua knew exactly what he needed. She seems to intuitively know how to approach special needs children and get them to reach their highest potential. "

From Our Workshop Hosts and Participants...
"Thank you both for such a 'connecting' presentation. I think you were able to reach your goals of 'starting from the student's perspective' and expanding upon their understanding. The students really appreciated your information and were able to begin to understand the idea of 'the child likes' to the 'the child needs.' One student is ready to bring bumpity bumps into her agency!"
"From what [PC] advised to me about my student's possible sensory integration issues I have had a SST for him and a meeting with his teacher. The school therapist is now giving us tips on how to help him and they've started a file on him. Project Commotion changed his life through their presentation, and I am so incredibly grateful. It's horrible to see a child suffering and not know how to help them, they gave me a solution to a problem that I've been battling for 9 months."
"I liked the speaker's vibrant energy and her love for her work and mission. She provided very useful tips for working with children, and some problem-solving skills."
