Our Lecturers
All of our lecturers are dedicated to building the skills of students who have chosen to become part of the rapidly growing complementary medicine industry.
David Corby
CEO & Founder of College of Complementary Medicine.
Senior Lecturer Integrative Complementary Medicine, Holistic Kinesiology and Mind Body Medicine.
David is CEO of CCM, teacher of holistic kinesiology and mind body medicine and published author of books and numerous accredited courses. David is a registered Acupuncturist, a mind body practitioner and holistic kinesiologist. A world renowned lecturer who teaches in Australia and overseas.
David originally worked as a Chief Economist in the financial markets until his life was overturned when his wife almost died from a serious illness. Over the 6 years she was ill he discovered much about himself and complementary medicine. David took up yoga and started to become more aware of everything around him. One day he was coming to work, looked at his building and was suddenly struck by the idea that he was wasting his time – playing a game that was fun but had little meaning. He decided it was time to do something that was meaningful to him. Following a short course on kinesiology he was hooked.
While doing yoga on a deserted island as the sun came up, David had a sudden insight that he should start a college that promoted the philosophy of self-empowerment – the capacity for everyone to feel that they can make the most of their life. So when he came to Sydney the college was born and things just grew from there. David realised over time that many people shared his self-empowerment philosophy and he has had the great privilege of seeing many hundreds of students transform into beautiful practitioners making a difference in the world. An experience that is extremely gratifying and uplifting.
Ondrej Bursik
RTO Manager & Co – Founder of College of Complementary Medicine
Senior Lecturer Holistic Kinesiology and Mind Body Medicine
Ondrej is a founding partner of CCM and senior teacher of holistic kinesiology and mind body medicine. He is also a qualified Samonas Sound Therapist, Neurofeedback Practitioner and Primitive Reflex Therapist. He has written a number of courses that he teaches in Australia and overseas.
Ondrej came to complementary medicine after studying Psychology at the University of Macquarie. Shortly after he stumbled across Kinesiology and found it was the perfect complement to what he had learned studying Psychology.
Ondrej had struggled with learning as a child and found that Kinesiology and Mind Body Medicine was a great modality for significantly improving brain function. He chose this field in order to help others so they didn’t need to struggle. His aim was to open an integrative holistic clinic, which would help children and adults with learning difficulties.

Debra Cowen
Debra has been teaching at CCM since 2012. Debra chose this profession, because of her own creative experience, when she studied Fine Arts.
