Lehandra Smit Therapist George: Expert in Human Movement Sciences and Dance Education

Lehandra Smit Therapist George is a passionate professional dedicated to human movement sciences. Born and raised in Kathu, Northern Cape, I began my academic journey in 2020 at North-West University in Potchefstroom. There, I pursued my passion for understanding the human body and its movements.

Building a Strong Foundation in Movement

From a young age, I was actively involved in sports. I participated in hockey, netball, cricket, and tennis throughout my school years. Dance, however, became my primary focus over the past 13 years. During this time, I earned international recognition and completed several dance examinations. As I work toward my degree in dance education, I deepen my understanding of human anatomy and movement. This knowledge empowers me to optimize performance and enhance overall health.

Gaining Practical Experience in Human Movement Sciences

In addition to my studies, I have worked in various practical settings. I assisted with hockey coaching at Potchefstroom Gymnasium and contributed to strength and conditioning programs at a local gym. These experiences allowed me to apply my theoretical knowledge in real-world situations. In 2023, I earned my Honours degree in Human Movement Sciences with a focus on Sport Coaching. I also became a registered Kinderkineticist with SAPIK and completed Level 2 training in anthropometry through ISAK. These qualifications help me understand how to optimize movement for both health and performance.

A Passion for Helping Others Achieve Their Fitness Goals

I believe that mindset plays a vital role in achieving success. Therefore, I motivate others to stay active and reach their fitness goals. My approach is positive and supportive. I focus on making exercise enjoyable, engaging, and accessible. Every individual has unique needs, and I tailor fitness plans to match those needs. By celebrating each step of progress, I help foster a love for sport and fitness.
