I’m so grateful to have attended the Brainfit classes at St Martins. The resources were generous, and I especially enjoyed the memory techniques—like using the alphabet for word recall and fun mnemonics for things like cranial nerves. I’ve started naturally using these tools in everyday life and I’ve learned that I enjoy using pictures and shapes to help me recall things. The other day, someone gave me a website URL and I didn’t have a pen—but I instantly found myself making connections to remember it. And I still remember it! Most importantly, I’ve also noticed a more positive way of connecting with others. Thank you so much!

“This has been such a reassuring course – great to know there are lots of ways I can keep my brain active and sharpen my memory.”

“The feedback we received on the Brainfit At Work session was very positive. Everyone was engaged & loved the mix of science, research and practical ‘here is what you can put in place tomorrow’ tips. Your ability to hold the crowds attention with your energetic delivery style together with thoughtful answers to individual questions was fabulous. Thank you so much Jude.”

As a Senior Model, I am often called upon to memorize scripts for commercials and your work has so enriched my abilities and provided me with much more confidence when I get before the cameras. I also come from a long line of women who are known for their “forgetfulness” and I have learned the secrets as to just why this is so from reading the lessons you have provided for me.

The Brainfit For Life Course is a must for anyone of any age. Having completed it for the second time, I’ve found the content practical with great tips & tricks to help me keep growing my brain.

“I enjoyed this course as I mixed with others, learnt what I can and can’t do well and know what I need to practice more.  Thank you for your energy in delivering the course, Jessie.  I find the book invaluable.”

“It is an extremely stimulating and useful course at any age or stage. I like the follow-up emails which remind me to keep up the things I’ve learnt.”

“I have struggled with cognitive issues as I have advanced in years, it has really worried me. Having been in Ina Meeten’s class in Blenheim, I am a lot more confident that I can look forward to many more years without “losing my marbles”!! I now have a real purpose in life, and I think I can help others as well. Thank you.”

“The course was fun and well presented. I found myself looking forward to each class and was very pleased when I got the opportunity to catch up on one class that I was unable to attend at the time.”

“Wow…. You have got a lot of the workforce talking after the Brainfit training! The staff who attended were blown away by what they experienced and the conversations that have followed since have been unreal. I’ve even witnessed a couple of staff members make complete lifestyle switches as a result because they resonated with your story and could see the path they were heading down too. Thank you so much Jude, I’ve truly loved partnering with you to bring this to Waipā and really look forward to the journey ahead together.”

“Already I feel much less worried about fading memory. The course has made me aware of some techniques I already use such as placing car keys in the same place. It is great – I love it. Have made notes of the 7 methods and will carry that in my purse for referral at spare moments. Thanks a million.”

“I really enjoyed the course and the calm and gentle way you led us – thank you very much.”

“Very worthwhile course & well worth the few hours it takes. Lots of good new tricks to aid the ageing grey matter!”

“There are so many pills and potions around which are supposed to help the brain it is refreshing to know that exercising the brain as you would your body is more beneficial with no negative side effects. The course was very helpful.”

“Thanks for yesterday’s ‘power hour & a half!’ After the training, I spoke about the content with my husband and he particularly liked (as well as I) methods to learn someone’s name by taking a mental picture and making relevant associations. We will both be trying this as and when we meet new people.”

I’m so pleased I seized the moment and enrolled in the September course. It helped me realize I need to stop cramming so much into my day and stay more intentional in the moment, rather than falling further into the trap of developing ‘Rushing Woman Syndrome.’ I really appreciated you as a person, and the professional, clear, and enthusiastic way the material was presented. It was comprehensive, well-explained, and grounded in science. The cost could have been a stumbling block, but I knew I needed to prioritise this course over other outings – and I’m so glad I did. The emails with additional information and links were also incredibly informative and helpful.

“Very valuable hints to encourage healthy memory. Thoroughly enjoyable and non-threatening. Younger people need to be encouraged to take the course.”

“I had an opportunity to practice remembering names at a social gathering on Friday where we met a lot of new people. Being an inquisitive person I found it easier to probe into people’s names rather than weave a story around them. For instance I was introduced to a lady called Sheryl and asked her if she was Sheryl or Cheryl. By concentrating on people’s names and repeating them as soon as possible I was able to remember most people I met, even differentiating between an Annette and a Lynette so was quite pleased.”

“A great experience and boost to my confidence. I can proudly say I passed my test so thank you for everything.”
