Peter Dawson

Peter is a qualified Feldenkrais Practitioner and an NLP Master Trainer. He combines these two modalities in interesting and unique ways. It allows for the subtle reorganizing of the body along with precision skill application and development. There are many other advantages to combining these two methods.

Peter originates from Tasmania and has lived in mainland Australia for many years. He attended the Australian National University ANU studying Forestry and Micro-Biology.

He left Uni to go and work on oil rigs working in such exotic places as the South China Sea, Borneo, Pakistan, Bass Strait and the Malacca Straits. During this period he engaged in different aspects of drilling from wildcatting, directional drilling, production platform drilling, floaters, drill ships and heli-rigs in the jungles of Borneo.

While this was an exhilarating 10 year period, in 1986 Peter felt it was time to re-educate again and begin a new phase of life. For the majority of this time, leading into the latter half of 1987, Peter lived off the stock market as a private investor while pursuing his education across a broad array of interests.

This lead him to begin his current career based around NLP and Feldenkrais along with many other influences over the years. He began his NLP training as a casual participant in public workshops in 1987 to becoming Australia’s first INLPTA NLP Master Trainer in 1995 and was the official Australasian INLPTA representative for the first few years of its inception. He graduated as a Feldenkrais Practitioner in 1991.

Since 1994 his company, Integrated Learning, has been providing trainings for the public and corporate arenas in NLP and other applications. Integrated Learning offers NLP programs from basic introductory level to Practitioner, Master Practitioner and NLP Trainer.

Peter has worked with teams and individuals at the elite levels of sports and performance. He has worked at test cricket level, national teams, professional football, AFL, table tennis, martial arts, opera, musicians, singers, actors, golfers, piano, guitar, artists, photographers and so on.

He has been interviewed for both radio and TV for his opinions in these areas.

Peter has great fascination with the nature of learning, change and development. Most of the programs he develops bare this trade mark approach and are designed around the fluid, ever changing aspects of learning.

Personal interests also include a strong interest in his own spirituality, martial arts and ongoing learning.
