About Edna Tune, Bsc. MA and Dan Tune, BA
Biofeedback practitioners and coaches (IAPB)
Edna and Dan Tune have had four decades of experience in the teaching, training and coaching fields. At their respective learning centers in Israel they have worked with thousands of adults and children who present with a whole range of learning difficulties. Their programs are in most cases intensive, ranging from 9 to 30 hours a week,
followed by many months of support work and continued follow up.Edna is chairman of the Israeli Biofeedback – Neurofeedback association.
Depending upon the person, the problem, the need, they rely on a “mix” of peripheral biofeedback, neurofeedback, and other innovative brain technologies to regulate and balance the LD brain. As educators and performance coaches, they weave these throughout the day into the framework of their content-oriented tutoring or coaching programs.
