Does your child need to remember lists of numbers or facts associated with numbers?

The Dominic System (by memory champion Dominic O’Brien) turns numbers into people and actions. Abacus visualisation makes the characters real.

Here’s the promise: You’ll learn how to turn any number into a memorable story.

🧩 What is the Dominic System?

World memory champion Dominic O’Brien created this system. Each 2‑digit number gets a person (initials from number) and an action. A sequence becomes a movie of people interacting.

🎯 How to Build Your Dominic System

Step 1: Create a person for each 2‑digit number 00‑99. Use initials: 14 = A.D. = Albert Einstein. 32 = C.B. = Charlie Chaplin. Step 2: Assign a distinctive action for each person. Step 3: For a long number, break into 2‑digit pairs. Step 4: Create an image of person1 doing their action to person2. For abacus: use people to remember bead movement sequences.

💡 A Parent’s Example

“My son used the Dominic system for a 10‑digit code: 141532 = Einstein (14) with Chaplin’s cane (15) sharing a moon (32). He never forgot the code.”

You might wonder, “Isn’t 100 people too many?” Start with 10 people (00‑09), then expand. Memory champions use 100.
