Session Overview

Come explore a holistic movement approach that engages creatively the whole child, creating body-mind connections and positive social interactions. Using play, creativity, and cooperation, children find meaning in learning as they explore, connect, and act creatively through movement, making sense of their world through their bodies/emotions/senses, building a sound foundation of meaningful movement experiences for deeper engagement in learning.

Play helps children meet their need for autonomy, Creativity helps children meet their need for competence, and Cooperation helps children meet their need for relatedness.

Increased body/emotion awareness, increased confidence, and creativity are some of the benefits of this approach, which ultimately make children feel good and healthy, providing them with creative tools for school.

Come feel the positive benefits of this approach for yourself and your children. Join us and receive concrete ideas, tips, and tools to create a compassionate classroom where children move towards the joy of learning and healthy living.
