A few years ago, I took a course on Bal-A-Vis-X and I loved it. Not only did I love it, the techniques used in Bal-A-Vis-X help students to perform better in school, reduce the symptoms of ADD, have a more positive attitude, etc. Like Brain Gym and the groundbreaking research at the Dore Achievement Centers (www.dorecenters.com), Bal-A-Vis-X uses physical exercises to increase integration in the brain and thereby enhance learning.

The course is being offered again and because these training sessions are difficult to find, I’m posting the workshop information here for any who might be interested.

Bal-A-Vis-X is an interactive course which introduces a means to energize learning––through movement. Bal-A-Vis-X, a series of Balance / Auditory /Vision exercises that are deeply rooted in rhythm will be observed. These exercises encourage full-body coordination and focused attention. The participant will begin to look at their students––special needs or typically functioning, through a noticing and exercise structure used in movement based learning. This structure offers an opportunity to gather classroom activities that enhance the existing curriculum. The effects of these activities lead our students into enhanced brain integration.

This introductory workshop is designed to assist with the ease of learning, reading, math, and creativity along with improved athletic skills.
