Hi Stephen,

Hope and trust you are well, to jog your memory I attended the Rhode Island Train-the-training and may remember me as the "As you were" individual from the evening sketch show.

Since Rhode Island I and Brett have trained over 250 exercise professionals in the principles of MI to overcome the barriers associated with exercise compliance. I would welcome the opportunity to discuss MI within the exercise industry and how I can take this fwd with my new Company to aid rentention within the fitness industry to Wellness Programmes.

Kind Regards.
Dave Gerrish, Technogym UK.

Hi all,

Is there anyone working within GP Exercise Referral Schemes utilising MI, for example, Phase 3-4 Coronary Rehab. Technogym are working with a number of PCT's around the counrty GP adherance programmes with a study at Kings College.

Anyone out there working on exercise adherence?

Kind Regards,
Dave

Dave,

good to hear from you and about your progress.  Feel free to discuss any issue here, anything but perhaps not to do with commercial promotion, if you know what I mean!

Good people to contact to answer your question are Tim Anstiss and Melvyn Hillsden.  They are at the centre of the GP scheme.

Look forward to hearing from you, Steve

Forthcoming Workshops

Motivational Interviewing: Introduction & Update. 2 day workshop - 11th & 12th June 2012, Cardiff
Begin: 11.06.12, 09:00
End: 12.06.12, 17:00
This is a repeat one-off opportunity to learn about motivational interviewing (MI), and the latest developments, from its two co-founders, William R. Miller from Albuquerque, New Mexico & Stephen Rollnick from Cardiff, Wales. Professor Miller will return to Cardiff after a successful workshop in 2011. This will be of interest to both to newcomers and those more familiar with MI. A streaming system will be used to ensure that those relatively new to MI will get good opportunity to practice basic skills. It will provide: - Clarification about the common and unique elements of MI - A focus on client change language and how it guides the practice of MI - An update on theory and research - The presentation of a new 4-process framework for MI that allows for easier integration in diverse settings - Opportunity to practice core skills for evoking motivation to change For further details and application form, visit: www.misr2012.co.uk
