COURSE CONTENT
This 2-day course introduces Rhythmic Movements and primitive reflex integration in an informative, fun, interactive and playful way with an emphasis on recognizing retained reflexes in young children.
Topics include:
- The role of infant movement and reflexes in brain growth, learning, emotional development and behavior, and the crucial importance of integrating infant reflexes for foundational sensory processing and learning skills.
- Reasons why un-integrated reflexes are a major factor in challenges such as ADD/ ADHD, dyslexia, developmental delay, sensory processing disorder, autism, chronic stress/overwhelm and other learning, emotional and behavioral difficulties.
- How Rhythmic Movement Training creates neural links between the brainstem, cerebellum, limbic area and prefrontal cortex and how this helps with stress release, speech development, social-emotional skills, physical skills, learning and behavioral challenges.
- Games and activities to integrate reflexes.
