What were you doing in 1969?

In 1969, Eddy Anderson was laying the foundations for something truly life-changing.
A deputy head teacher at a special school, as well as a remedial gymnast and physiotherapist, Eddy began developing techniques using a trampoline to provide therapeutic exercise and recreation for children with disabilities. He called it Rebound Therapy.

After three years of development and trials within his school, he felt ready to share it more widely. So, he opened the very first Rebound Therapy club—held on Saturdays at his school.
This moment marked the true beginning of Rebound Therapy.
Since then, over five decades of innovation and dedication have followed.

In 1979, Eddy introduced a structured training course in partnership with the Cleveland Education Authority, and became a training course tutor within schools. He later expanded by delivering training for the Chartered Society of Physiotherapy and the BTF ( now British Gymnastics.)
In 2006, Eddy joined forces with disability sports coaches Paul Kaye and Shirley Kaye. Paul was also a teacher, and Shirley an international trampoline performer. Together, they further developed the organisation now known as ReboundTherapy.org

Today, with their amazing, dedicated team of tutors and office staff, ( www.reboundtherapy.org/team ) Rebound Therapy continues to evolve—offering life-enhancing benefits for children and adults with a wide range of needs.

From one small Saturday club, Rebound Therapy has grown into a worldwide movement. It is now one of the most popular activities in the UK for children with disabilities, and the ReboundTherapy.org practitioner training course is accredited in over 100 countries.
The Rebound Therapy practitioner training course is also recognised as part of the 3-step pathway to becoming a mainstream trampoline coach.

Did you know, you can use your Rebound Therapy Practitioner qualification towards becoming a mainstream trampoline coach?
The fully inclusive 3-step pathway to trampoline coaching is the most popular programme for developing trampoline coaches in schools, and is becoming increasingly popular with clubs and leisure centres.
The Rebound Therapy certificate is step 1
The Rebound Plus add-on module for more able students is step 2.

The Authority Trampoline course further add-on module is step 3. By completing this, you will also be a qualified mainstream trampoline coach.
(Further advanced workshops are also available for those who wish to continue advancing their coaching skills.)

Common Q and A

Q: How is progress in Rebound Therapy recorded and evidenced?
A: Progress is measured using structured, recognised frameworks tailored to each individual’s needs:
• For physically able students:
Progress is tracked through the first three grades of the Winstrada trampoline development programme. These grades are based directly on the Rebound Therapy training course.
• For individuals with more profound or complex needs:
Progress is assessed using the Huddersfield Functional Index (HFI) — a structured tool specifically designed for Rebound Therapy.
All course participants receive a comprehensive manual, along with training in how to use both assessment methods effectively.
In addition, Earwig Academic, a leading UK educational software provider, has developed an app in partnership with ReboundTherapy.org. This app integrates both Winstrada and HFI, enabling practitioners to easily record and evidence student progress in line with government recommendations.
