Bags, Balls, and Brains “Crossing over the Midline”

Category: sensory motor learning – Author: Tom – 2:59 pm

Bags, Balls and Brains is a sensory motor integration program which enhances brain function through rhythmic movement patterns. Participants benefit physically, mentally, emotionally and socially. These activities integrate the whole body-mind system bringing mental fitness, physical coordination, social awareness and self-esteem. We have fun and feel great at the end of each session.

Repetition of the rhythmic bag and ball patterns integrates the senses — auditory, visual, kinesthetic, tactile and fine motor skills. This whole brain learning approach creatively combines Bal-A-Vis-X®, Brain Gym® and Learning Breakthrough Program activities. Learning challenges are met through reflex integration and supported by BodyMind Centering® explorations enhancing awareness and presence.

Instructors Shirley and Linda have extensive backgrounds and experience in the fields of education and movement. They deftly weave together all of their multi-faceted past trainings and experiences.
