“Bullying school-wide stopped at Kohala Elementary,” according to Principal Danny Garcia. 

See the free school program: Get Sensational Attention

“A third-grader came into the office,” Principal Garcia told me. He was red, sweating, and angry. Garcia put him in our class. We taught him how to shut off the outer world for a moment and open up his “inner me.”  We taught movement lessons to sense his body and sensorimotor architecture of his feelings and thoughts. In other words we taught him how to find what we called “Home,” or at Kohala they called “Pono Breath.”

Significant differences happened. The boy stopped showing up in the principal’s office. Children’s perceptions shifted from anger to empathy.

Previously, he felt everyone was constantly after him, judging him, separating him from playing with others. In reality, no one noticed him until he became violent. Gradually, after helping him feel his inner body-attitude to his outer behavior. His violent personality disorder shifted. For the first time, he made a few friends. The principal reported after five years (2021) the boy is still improving social-emotionally behavior and academically.   

The results was not just because one teacher or one parent worked with him.  The whole school culture used Get Sensational Attention and finding “Home.”
