“I am helping kids experience success like I've never seen”

Learning involves taking in information and then doing something with it. Learning depends on how information is received, processed and then connected to an action. Effective learning requires clear and efficient “wiring” between the nerves, senses and muscles of the body. We can strengthen and stabilize this neuro-sensory-motor system through movement.

The neuro-sensory-motor system in large part gets its “training” through movement. This training begins in the womb and continues through toddlerhood with automatic, instinctual reflex and rhythmic movements. Among their many “jobs” these innate movements literally “grow” the brain and nervous system and determine our ability to interact with the world. Our reflex and rhythmic movements also help train the vestibular (balance) system, the visual, hearing, touch and proprioceptive systems and sensory processing abilities. The importance of the childhood movements to all of our future life skills, especially learning and relationship skills, cannot be understated.
