Brain Gym movements
work with the
Whole brain and its
dynamic processing
to Enhance the
potential of each
individual.

Replicable in different contexts Individualised Promotes Sensing and noticing and Self managing skills
We all have a different neurological organisation,( neurotypical, dyslexic, dyspraxic, ASD , etc. ) but Brain Gym movements can enhance whole
brain processing for all.

Developmental impact.
Stress - physical, emotional, ( Brain becomes inefficient / Automatic/unthinking . Cognitive processing affected
Poor Focus & attention - impact on efficiency of working memory

Difficulty with focus and attention Challenged to sit still on the mat compared
to other children.Challenged to maintain posture for desk
work like reading or writing. Postural compensations for poor upperbody like holding head, leaning to one side,
sitting on feet, etc . Poor retention.Avoidance behaviour.
