Brain Gym® 104 is a 16 hour course introducing the Brain Gym movement based sensorimotor learning program.

When the brain and body work together in cooperation, the learner can move with confidence between what they know and what they are in the process of learning. Freeing up the body to move and stimulating the nervous system to integrate the body and brain for quality performance is the basis of the Brain Gym® program.

In the Brain Gym® 104 course you will learn:

• PACE– 4 movements to get ready for learning
• The Brain Gym 26 Movements
  • Application to the physical skills of learning
  • The basic versions, variations and applications for the classroom
  • The 4 categories of the 26 movements as they relate to the 3 dimensions of movement: Left to Right, Up to Down and Front to Back
• Noticing for self-awareness
• The Learning Flow– movement based vs stressed based learning model
• The Five Principles of Movement-Based Learning
