New Learner to sign- Deaf Personal Trainer


Rob T

Recommended Posts

Hi all, Im Rob im 24 years old from Preston in the UK. I am deaf in both ears and have been all my life. I'm learning sign language so that in the future I can help deaf people in fitness and help them achieve their fitness goals. I am currently living out in Australia in Melbourne. I would love to connect with as many of you as i can on instagram and help have some accountability for learning sign language.

Hi, Rob. Nice to meet you. 

I know that BSL, NZSL, and Auslan are related languages, so a grounding in one will probably get you started OK in the others. Be aware of the differences though.

As far as I know, the fingerspelling is the same – so you can always spell things out in the event of any confusion! All the best with your BANZSL journey. 😀

    • I found https://www.flirtini.com/asian.html while browsing for something a little different. I’d never really explored this kind of niche before, but something about it drew me in. The site makes it easy to start chatting right away, and the energy is sexy but relaxed. The women I’ve met so far are playful, curious, and not shy about what they want. It’s such a fun vibe — the kind that keeps you hooked longer than you planned.
    • Hi all I am Stella.  I am retired with two dogs who keep me very busy.  I have Menieres disease and five years ago I woke up and found I was totally deaf. My hearing never returned and I have felt isolated since then. I have started learning BSL on line this week and hope to join a course in September.  I have a long way to go but now I see some light at the end of the tunnel.
