Why Learning Feels Hard These Days?


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.




🧠 Movement Builds the Brain

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


Brain Gym® is the bridge between body and brain

offering fun, easy movements that support learning and emotional well-being.

🔥 Ready to Make Learning Easier and More Fun?


Join us for this energising, confidence-building training that helps learners of all ages move forward—literally.

Hi, I’m Kristi — a Developmental Learning Consultant and I love that my work and yours too could include fun and games.

I help adolescents with learning challenges who feel unseen and stuck to find joy and take confident steps toward a brighter future. I also support parents, carers, and educators who feel isolated by outdated systems—so they can experience the joy of young people thriving in life and learning.


With over 26 years of hands-on experience in disability support—including developmental delay, psychosocial needs, sensory and physical challenges, Autism, vision impairment, and often-overlooked learning differences—I bring deep compassion and practical tools that work.


I deliver accredited Brain Gym® training that's fun, simple, and easy to do.


I use Brain Gym® every day and love how simple and powerful it is—you will too!

Words from Previous Students of BrainGym Courses

Learning and practicing the movements and being able to implement this into daily life

Content was exactly what I needed/wanted


I enjoyed how Kristi broke down each step so I felt comfortable and noticed my body brain and breathing and relaxation especially for stress related


SOME MONTHS LATER:


I just wanted to thankyou for bringing Brain Gym into my life  I used it today before having to sit an oral assessment and it worked a treat. I was calm, focused and able to listen and answer so much better than I thought possible

“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
