HANDS ON - BrainGym Course
Bringing clarity, calm, and confidence to learning—one simple movement at a time.
A practical, play-based and accredited training course for parents, carers, and educators who want to make learning easier and more enjoyable—without needing fancy equipment. BYO Brain and Body to this course. You will discover:
Many kids (and teens!) struggle with reading, writing, or maths
And it is hard to sit still and focus. Traditional classrooms are still insisting kids sit to learn
Also consider the modern era and how it affects 'traditional' learning
👉 Increased screentime and decreased movement means
learners are often missing out on 'physical skills or foundations'
—like posture, coordination, and eye tracking on paper.
Also..
Did you know the HSC is still handwritten
Yet students hardly ever practice handwriting anymore?
Learning doesn't have to always be fun but it also doesn't need to be so hard.
Physical skills are overlooked and it's time to rethink and notice what's going on.
The sensory-motor cortex part of our brains lights up when we move and when we learn
When we can move with intention this enables better brain function - improving:
✔️ Focus
✔️ Regulation
✔️ Memory
✔️ Confidence
✔️ Task Completion

“Hello Kristi Just wanted to let you know that I have enjoyed putting some learning into practice with a young boy about the age of 8/9 . He always held his gaze to the ground and hardly looked up. Now he is walking so much more upright and this has created so many learning opportunities as he is much easier to engage and takes on more of his worldThanks for sharing brain gym this with me
