"We're looking at trying to empower elementary teachers to get kids to learn fun ways about getting fit, and people like Hiba can provide teachers with the energy and the motivation to do it. "

“Hiba, thanks again for providing outstanding PE lessons to the various grades levels over the last few weeks. Our teachers and students have enjoyed them. I heard a wonderful comment just today from a teacher who exclaimed, "my kids came alive, it was like I was watching a totally different group of children! Hiba has so much energy and the kids were so engaged and excited!" I couldn't agree more. With the lessons I have seen, I too have noticed the level of engagement of the children--they are having fun and learning at the same time. Thanks again for sharing your expertise with us, it has been a pleasure.”
