Learning From the Body

Get Sensational Attention is a video animation program to introduce the Home Breath, the “inner – with the outer me.” Weave the practices into what you are already doing as a parent, teacher, researcher, or administrator.

Fun Movement Lessons From the Body to the Mind for Children 

Movement Games for groups of children

Learning From Inside Out • The Sensory Body The book introduces how to build the bridge for your children (ages 5- 10 years old), from the  feeling sensation of the body to thinking. This dynamic and interactive series of twelve lessons shows participants how to feel their bodies’ influence on thinking and feeling. The lessons are designed to improve awareness, in-classroom management, and school culture. Participants learn to shift perception from outside to inside to dual attention from the heart to others. By enhancing a clearer sense of self with the body, relationships with others and the outer world come into harmony. An array of self-observing techniques use breath, sound, and movement based on the Feldenkrais Method. Lessons promote a bodily awareness of mental, emotional, and physical interconnections – A New Sensory Self Awareness.

WTM PART I I

Part II is a collaborative movement program with twelve lessons (Feldenkrais®, Awareness Through Movement ® for physical education curriculum). It reeducates the motor patterning attached to challenges affecting behavior, cognitive development, and general well-being. Designed for use with groups of children ages five to ten and by professionals in the Feldenkrais work, research, movement, or counseling, it fosters a sense of self guidance with the inclusion for all others.

According to Principal Garcia of Kohala Elementary School, the WTM Part II program changed cognitive challenges such as attention deficit and sustained improvements for years to come.
