I started life as a primary class teacher with a scraped Grade VII piano and ‘O’ Level music as my only musical background. I was soon given the task of teaching music throughout a school of 4-8 year olds and realised I did not have the skills or knowledge to be able to do this effectively. My wise headteacher sent me on a Kodály course and my world started to change… Now, after many years of learning from amazing teachers, I am passionate about this wonderful, structured, joyful way to teach and to learn musical skills, knowledge and understanding – it is my raison d’être! I grew up with the unshakeable belief that I was ‘not musical’ – because I was never a good pianist, I couldn’t do aural tests, or sight-sing, or write a dictation; theory never made much sense to me. I perceived that ‘performance’, ‘aural’ and ‘theory’ were three separate entities. It was only Kodály study that made me realise that they are all interconnected and also part of this whole wonderful thing called ‘music’. It also unlocked all the music that was inside me and which I never knew was there. My passion is bringing musical skills, knowledge and understanding to a huge variety of people – to children; to adults who are both professional or amateur musicians; to both specialist and generalist teachers. I have realised that Kodály musicianship has so much to offer a vast range of people, including choral singers, class teachers and professional players. A particular interest in recent years has been discovering the benefits of Kodály musicianship to those working in different styles and genres, including pop, electronic music and modern a cappella singing.

Poynton

I discovered Pilates in my twenties after being diagnosed with a herniated disc in the lower back. The specialist consultant advised that a program of prescriptive pilates exercises would manage the condition, prevent pain and more importantly avoid future operations. I have been practicing Pilates ever since and I am an advocate of its benefits which include supporting life-long medical conditions, injury prevention and managing stress. I was trained by Cherry Baker, one of the UK’s Leading Pilates practitioners. I hold the highest qualification available in mat based Pilates and have been teaching for over 15 years. Following the success of Poynton Pilates I'm now running new classes at Bramhall Pilates. About Modern Pilates Modern Pilates is a respected and reputable training organisation and is trusted within the industry. Modern Pilates brings Joseph Pilates’ Classical approach into the 21st century by combining his principles with recent research. This clinical approach has been devised by physiotherapists and Modern Pilates was instrumental in the development of Pilates training courses in the UK. Modern Pilates was the first organisation in the UK to gain YMCA Qualifications approval. What is the difference between Classical, Contemporary and Modern Pilates? Classical Pilates follows as closely as possible to Joseph Pilates' original work, his exercises and the order in which they were performed Contemporary Pilates is based partly on Joseph Pilates' work but with modifications to the exercises so that they fit with modern research Modern Pilates is unique as it offers Contemporary Pilates with a clinical approach as the exercises have been designed in conjunction with physiotherapists and recent research. Many of the exercises remain the same but allowances are made for injury rehabilitation and creativity by the teacher.

Her confidence and belief in herself has grown so much. The lessons are fun and Chloe really enjoys them. I would highly recommend. Yolande Hilditch-Brown reviewed One to Learn – 5 star17 July · 2018 My daughter (who suffers with dyslexia) has been having one to one tutor sessions with Sheena for quite some time.. she absolutely loves her lessons and always comes away with a positive attitude.There has been a vast improvement in her reading, writing & spelling which has been reflected in her school work having just had an excellent school report. I would highly recommend Sheena to anyone looking for learning support. Vicky Austin‎ to One to Learn10 September 2017 · Thankyou sheena for getting Rebecca Evans through her gcse maths successfully. As you know, she struggled badly with the simplest concepts. Taking her back to basics and repeating tasks really worked for her. It’s nothing short of a miracle. Your help was priceless. X ‎Rebecca Turner‎ to One to Learn1 July 2016 · My son has becoming to Sheena for lessons in maths and literacy for over a year. He has ASD and ADHD and Sheena has been brilliant with him. She has helped to consolidate his core skills (which he had some big gaps in) and taught him lots of new skills! She is very patient and paces the lessons very well and manages my son’s ASD needs very well. Since Morgan started with you as her tutor her confidence and her ability has increased beyond belief. Not only has she gained confidence in her ability academically, she has gained confidence in herself. She has now finished her Hickey Multi-Sensory system, but is continuing with her tutoring as it has turned around her whole outlook on learning. We intend to keep her in your tuition to support her as she moves through to year 8 and on-wards. Thank you for all your help over the last 2 years to improve her percentile from 20 to 47 Great work! I would recommend (and have already recommended) your services to anyone who has need of extra educational support. Thank you again. (Joanna Jones 2016) Sheena McKay quickly put my autistic son at ease during the diagnostic tests that she did. Her teaching skills are outstanding – I would highly recommend her. (A Jones 21 July 2012) Sheena provides a safe, caring teaching environment that complements our childrens’ primary education that continues to exceed our expectations. ( J.G.2012) The best thing that ever happened for my daughter was me contacting Sheena (Mrs C. Morgan) We have been very pleased with your commitment and approach to Charlie’s education. The fact that I have never for one moment felt the need to question your teaching and ideas, speaks for itself, and it has been a period in Charlie’s life where we have been confident that he is getting the best opportunity and individual attention possible. Sue Edwards Teague. (July 2010) Luke has grown and developed, his speech and language has improved immensely and he is leaving his first year a very happy and confident 4 year old and we believe that you were very valuable to that. Mrs Steel (July 2010) You have been so supportive of both him and me in the past year. Mrs Parnell (July 2010) I’ve valued your support and wealth of knowledge and will continue to do so. Alison Arrowsmith (July 2010) I myself have always valued your expert knowledge and found you very supportive. Jenny Bygrave (July 2010) In the short time you have known Daisie you have had such a positive effect on her and I am so grateful to you for that. Emma Hingley (July 2010) As a parent of children with educational needs I would recommend Sheena Mckay as a fantastic, understanding and devoted teacher. My daughter loved being taught by her and looked forward to going to school every morning. Mrs Mckay was also very understanding and sympathetic of our son’s problems too. She was always there at the end of school to put time aside for any parent, no matter what the problem. Mrs Jan Phillips (Sept. 2010) Sheena teaches with ease, knowledge and, more importantly for a young boy whom is easily distracted, with humour and fun. (Mr N. L) As a parent of children with educational needs I would recommend Sheena Mckay as a fantastic, understanding and devoted teacher. My daughter loved being taught by her. (Mrs J. Phillips) Sheena has helped Cody improve his speech, which in this short period of time has come on in leaps and bounds. Most importantly Cody enjoys his time with Sheena and always comes away with a smile. (Shauni Owen)
