BEN LANDERS loves teaching Physical Education. The passion that started in 2007 in South Carolina has developed into something very special. Not only does he teach K-5 P.E. to a school of 500 kids at River Springs Elementary, but he has served many PE teachers across the world with his creation of THE PE SPECIALIST. Developed in 2014, Landers started putting all of his work through video into a business model that offered a membership in 2016. His presence on YouTube and Instagram has produced a large community of PE teachers across the world. The buy-in to Ben is easy. It was for me. Today we get an inside look at Ben's journey. While he may not be from Sacramento, this 16-year P.E. teacher has a lot to offer in today's episode!
HOST STEVE BUZZARD on Ben Landers | "Having used his material when I was a P.E. teacher in my final five years (2015-2020), it was an honor to have Ben join us to help pull the curtain back on such a fun profession."
Our Connection | I came across Ben's work in 2015 when I attended a P.E. Conference in Sacramento. Once I logged onto his website at THEPESPECIALIST.COM, I was all in. His material and resources helped me take the P.E. program at St. Michael's in Carmichael, CA to another level.

Just realized that the one question I forgot to ask - being that Ben is from South Carolina ... has he ever been to California?
