The Corpus Callosum becomes stronger when it is used. Because of how the brain processes, motor activities call on the Corpus Callosum to be activated. When we add strategic cross lateral movements, we ask the Corpus Callosum to work even more! The more the Corpus Callosum is asked to work, the more...
Our Early Childhood program helps young developing brains interact with challenges in a positive environment. This builds a foundation of seeing challenge as good. As a child accomplishes hard things they have never done before, this builds a foundation of proof to the child that "I can do hard thin...
Our Early Childhood program focuses on helping children as young as 12 months old and as old as 4 years old create neuro pathways that will help them for the rest of their life.
As we introduce movements a child may not have been exposed to yet, this helps them create new neuro pathways in their br...
Often a diagnoses from a doctor or label from a teacher can feel like a death sentence. Diagnoses and labels are handed out in our society so nonchalantly as if to say, "Here is the limit we have placed on your child, accept it and move on."
One of the most important things for a parent of a child ...
Hannaford shares in Smart Moves that "Research shows that two regions at the front of the Corpus Callosum in ADHD... are markedly smaller than those of non-ADHD people."
Melillo explains in Autism that the Corpus Callosum is "the bridge that links the two sides of the brain." Melillo also shares in...
Skipping is more than a playful thing that kids do (or used to do). Skipping is a brain development movement that engages both sides of the brain and causes the Corpus Callosum to develop. Having a strong Corpus Callosum is critical to developing full logic reasoning skills as well as being able to ...
Every child's brain is different. Genetic genes leading towards Dyslexia, Autism and and other learning difficulties can't be changed; however, the impact they have in the child's growth, development, and life can be impacted.
In a study at the University of Illinois rats who did precise, nimble mo...
Developing the ability to use both sides of the body in a coordinated manner is a major development milestone. It starts with learning to crawl and expands to being able to walk, balance, and eventually run.
The more opportunities a young child is given to practice tasks that require balance, the m...
Our Early Childhood Pre-parkour program is designed to support growth and development in toddlers in many critical areas. At the core of this program is the benefit of developing neural networks that prepare a child for a life full of movement, healthy choices, confidence, creativity, ability to thi...
