WHAT IS MOVEMENT BASED LEARNING?
Movement Based Learning offers workshops which address the foundational pieces of learning so that children and adults of all abilities, as well as their caregivers, parents, therapists and teachers, can learn how to learn.
The program provides excellent applications for a variety of challenges including yet not limited to those who have/are on the autism spectrum, cerebral palsy, attention deficit, hyperactivity, dyslexia, Angelman’s Syndrome, Down Syndrome, speech impairment, brain injuries, blindness, deafness, impairments caused by strokes, epilepsy, developmental delays. It is also a fantastic tool to provide early childhood prevention and action tools.
The emphasis is on teaching and consulting in a functional, practical way so that any information learned is directly applicable and usable. Techniques that are taught and learned have been shown to directly affect the ease of learning for each participant.

In addition, Brain Gym® for Special Needs Providers and Movement Based Learning for Children of All Abilities have been translated into Spanish, French, Malay, Japanese, Chinese, Slovenian, Dutch, Italian, German, and will soon be available in Russian.
