[19][20][21][22] Jone Winchester as president and founding member of the Peter Summerton Foundation [23][24][25] recommended to the board that Lyn Kidd be awarded scholarships in 1982 and 1983 as assistant to international master teacher and director Yevgeny Lanskoy.

The research of bird sounds was conducted between 1988 and 1990 at Natural Bridge in the Numinbah Valley with the assistance and guidance of Peter Lehmann, ranger at the National Parks and Wildlife Services Queensland.

Over the following two years, Kidd and Rowena continued drafting and subsequently, The Jungle of Sounds - A Journey Through The Magic of Language was published in 1997 by Antipodean Educational Press.

The Psychology of Character as an acting technique laid the foundation of core teachings for The Actors Workshop, which she opened in 1994 with co-founder Michael Caton.
