BrainGym
At the primary school, we are lucky enough to have an educational kinesiologist who has assisted and supported Radley Private School in creating a 40-week programme that provides helpful BrainGym™ activities to activate learning in the brain.
In society today, we often see the body and the mind as separate and think movement has nothing to do with learning.
BrainGym™ uses movements to accelerate learning and enhance performance. This is performed through sets of exercises that help coordinate and integrate the two hemispheres of the brain. Neurologist and educator Dr C Hannaford speaks about how BrainGym™ facilitates each step of the process by waking up the mind–body system and bringing it to learning readiness.
