News From Newcastle
The Newcastle Region Branch President, Pete Henry, has been very busy promoting and marketing Kinesiology, Kinesiology practitioners in the area and The Institute.
The article in the Herald was quickly followed up by an interview with the local ABC Radio recently. Interestingly, the interview was as a result of Kinesiology having a nationally recognized overseeing Body – The Institute – with proper Constitution, By-Laws, code of ethics and code of conduct.
