| Praise for Guy
The most kid-friendly teacher I've ever seen…
“As a therapist who works with children, trains therapists, and studies brain science, I'm recommending Guy Sidora's amazing Bounce class to every parent and child I can reach.
Guy's class is an exuberant experience that trains minds to grow, bodies to coordinate and spirits to soar. Every minute the kids are moving and learning deep lessons about body/mind integration, intention, concentration and collaboration—and their faces are sparkling with joy.
Guy is the most motivational, kid-friendly teacher I've ever seen.”
Elizabeth Turner LICSW,
Bainbridge Island
Guy is so, so fun to be with…
“He always makes you happy and you will always have a great time with him.”
Isabelle, 5-6 grade,
Madrona School
A circle where acceptance and teamwork were the standard…
“I wasn't sure what Guy would do with a mixed group of about 10 young people between the ages of 12 and 14. Each of them had a different skill set and specific difficulties connecting with others on a social level.
The group started out dispersed, by choice, across the space. This was to be expected. Guy met them on their level. He captivated them with music and the freedom to explore movement. Then he used that captivation to pull them into a circle where acceptance and teamwork were the standard.
Each activity built on the previous one and laughter, eye contact, and collaboration emerged.”
Jessica Aubin MS, CCC-SLP
Woodward Middle School
Thanks for bringing joy, laughter, and fun…
“I wish I could figure out a way to work with Guy more often. I love the energy and spirit he brings to my projects.”
Sarah Cramer,
Bainbridge Ballet
Guy Sidora brings a magic to everything he does…
“Whether he is teaching, performing, or playing, Guy’s knowledge and creativity make a unique contribution to everyone involved.
Complex ideas are translated into deceptively simple actions. Lessons are delivered through play.
And Guy’s gift for improvisation allows each class or event to be alive, tailor-made for its participants. ”
Bonnie Wallace,
Bainbridge Performing Arts

Guy
Guy is like a bubbling brooke,
laughing merrily all the way
He is as intelligent as a pheasant,
he´s like opening a present
When he comes through the door,
we want some more
laughing, happiness, and joy
throughout the day
We learned to have a positive attitude
and always to think on the bright side of life.
We appreciate you very much,
Savannah and Karin, 5-6 grade

Guy Sidora—Bainbridge Island’s ’pied piper’—Connects With Kids Through Movement and Art
“Give a kid a whistle, and you might never again have a moment’s peace. Give a kid a whistle in one of Guy Sidora’s movement classes, and that kid might take that whistle and turn it into an art. ...”
