Brain Moves
Friday June 6, 2025 9:15am - 10:15am CDT
Brain Moves is an innovative educational program designed to transform classrooms into spaces where students are actively engaged and empowered in their learning. Rooted in the Fundamental Movement Patterns of Total Body Connectivity developed by Irmgard Bartenieff and Peggy Hackney, the program equips teachers with effective strategies to integrate movement into their daily teaching, creating an environment that values the whole child. By incorporating dynamic movement activities, Brain Moves strengthens the body-mind connection, supporting not only physical health but also cognitive development, emotional regulation, and social-emotional growth in young learners. By incorporating movement into the classroom, Brain Moves helps improve focus, attention, presence, and self-awareness, while encouraging positive social interactions and relationships among students. Attendees will leave with practical ideas and movement activities that they can implement in the classroom right away.
