Educational Kinesiology In-Depth

Hands-on experience with seven dimensions of body movement, focusing on how each can support or block the learning process. Learn to assimilate the principles of whole brain learning into one’s current homeostasis.

This course will be co-facilitated on Zoom by Cindy Goldade and Colleen Gardner. They were primary editors of the 2022 course manual and are so excited to teach from the new manual. Both are experts at playfully connecting concepts to experience. 

As a bonus, Cindy will be Zoom’ing mostly in Minnesota. She will be logging in from Fort Worth, Texas for session 2 and from Tampa, Florida for session 6. (All sessions will be on Zoom but if you are in her area, reach out and join her in person.)

Pre-requisite: Brain Gym® 101

At the end of this course, participants will be able to:

Deepen

One’s understanding of the Laterality, Centering, and Focus dimensions.

Develop

Skills that draw out potential excellence and the realization of goals.
 

Expand

The learning menu with new techniques in acupressure, movement, emotional balancing, vision training and a lot more.

 

Learn

Four new dimensions and their accompanying Pre-Activities.
 
Loved the new look to the In-Depth content. 
 
I like the basic descriptions of the new materials. It was so readable. I like the why we are doing what we are doing and simplified how to do what we are doing. The more “how to” approach was particularly useful. The (online) format of the class with time to go over the details of the menus of the different balances was especially helpful. I especially like how the class was set up and on line instead of four 8-hour days.
 
There is a lot to process. Was amazed at how supported I felt without being in person. I sorta didn’t want the experience to end.

Love the online class. I am getting so much out of it, learning a lot, and gaining so much more confidence. I don’t want it to end.  I did four fairly smooth in-depth balances this week, two with clients, one with my mom, one with myself.  Wow, I am floored. Compare this note to the first one I sent to you in the first few sessions where I was sure I would never get this and wanted to quit.

The more how to approach was particularly useful. The format of the class with time to go over the details of the menus of the different balances was especially helpful. I have always found a group balance is more effective in bringing awareness of the process than a demonstration but demonstration is still useful after the experience of the group balance. I especially like how the class was set up and on line instead of 4 8 hour days. There is a lot to process.

The new material is so much clearer and easier to use.
 
I don’t have to travel and the time was very convenient. Also, if you had to miss part of class, it was recorded.
