About Me
Meet Your Conductor
My name is Zsolt Ezsias, and I graduated in 1998 from the András Pető Faculty of Semmelweis University in Budapest, one of the world's most respected institutions for conductor training and the birthplace of modern Conductive Education.
In 1999, I moved to the Chicago Metropolitan Area, where I have dedicated my career toProfessional Journey helping children and adults with neurological and motor challenges achieve greater independence and participation in daily life.
1999–2007
I worked for a nonprofit organization providing Conductive Education services in a multidisciplinary setting. During this time, I led group programs and collaborated closely with Occupational Therapists (OTs) and Physical Therapists (PTs), creating comprehensive learning environments that supported physical, cognitive, and functional development.
2007–Present
Since 2007, I have focused on individualized, home-based Conductive Education services. Working directly in clients' homes allows me to develop practical programs tailored to each person's goals, routines, and environment, helping them achieve meaningful progress in everyday life.
