IBITA is the international organisation of instructors, teaching the Bobath Concept applied to the assessment and treatment of adults with neurological conditions. The organisation was formed in 1984 for the specific purposes of providing a forum for defining the continued interaction and education of its present instructors and the training of future instructors with respect to the teaching of the Bobath Concept worldwide.

Linzi Meadows was re-elected to the Education Committee, Chris Barber to the Appeals and Grievance Committee and Sue Raine remains on the Research Committee.
