A therapeutic drumming session at a school for children
 who had been streamed into a ‘special school’.
The least we can do for a pupil is afford him the best base from which to learn and grow.  Dominance Profiles do just that.  There are thirty two different learning and performance preferences as indicated by the thirty two different dominance profiles, yet most educational systems, if not all, cater for one dominance profile only; Profile L1a, which represents only fifteen percent (15%) of the learner population.  Dominance profiles show us how new information should be presented to learners in order to lock in new information, who needs to move, who needs to talk, who might have difficulty hearing what is being said, who might have difficulty seeing what is being illustrated, and even where learners should be seated in the classroom.  Further, dominance profiles also show us how to cope with and correct shortcomings or perceived weaknesses, and how to capitalise on strengths in both facilitators and learners.
