Coach D PE Around the World

Coach D PE Around the World

I have been teaching physical education and coaching team sports for 25 years.

I recently retired from teaching to pursue this project.

I am taking a research trip around the world to study PE in other countries and cultures...I want to see and engage with kids playing games and activities that are special to them and unique to their culture and environment.

I will be traveling around 30,000 miles to 34 countries on 6 continents. I will be connecting with over 60 schools to observe kids playing their favorite games and activities. In addition, I want to see how culture and other environmental factors dictate their physical activities, physical fitness and physical education!

For this trip, I will be fully immersed in each country. I will be staying in local towns and villages, interacting with families along the way. I will be taking videos of my interactions to create a documentary upon my return. I will also write a book or series of books about my adventures.
