About
Brain Gym®
Brain Gym® is a series of simple and enjoyable movements that
we use with our students in Educational Kinesiology to enhance
their experience of whole-brain learning.
EDU-K is a result of over twenty years of research by its founder
Dr. Paul Dennison.
Today,
EDU-K explores life skills as well as academic skills.
A White House committee in the USA has listed it as one of the
top two in the field of innovative methods for taking learning
into the next century.
Brain Gym® activities make all types of learning easier, and
are especially effective with academic skills.
It is empowers learners of all age-groups by using movement activities
to extract hidden potentials and make them readily available.
Whole-Brain learning, through movement re-patterning and through
Brain Gym® activities enables students to access those parts
of the brain previously inaccessible to them. Many teachers use
a variety of Brain Gym® movements in their classroom everyday,
some concentrating on the movements specially related to reading.
When students are introduced to Brain Gym®, they seem to love
it, request it, teach it to their friends, and integrate it into
their lives - parents can easily learn the Brain Gym® movements
with their children and support their practising them at home -
a very good way to get started in the morning or before getting
into homework!
