Neurodevelopmental Movement Training Class

Neurodevelopmental Movement Training on Bainbridge Island, Washington,

November 20-21, 2010.

16 Clock Hours/CEUs available.

While good for all ages and skill levels, the Neurodevelopmental Movement Training tools are particularly helpful for those with:

• emotional outbursts, social and behavior challenges

• sensory processing disorders

• learning challenges

• ADD/ADHD, focus challenges, hyperactivity

• Autism

• Anxiety

• Developmental delay

• Speech delay

• Difficulty with handwriting

• Poor Stamina, Poor Posture

Children's brains are starving for movement. We know this because when they get even just 10 minutes a day of Neurodevelopmental Movement, they show improvements in ability to focus, cognitive function, and emotional regulation. Some children find calm in their bodies for the first time ever.

Using potent brain-stimulating movements from infancy, we build the neuro-sensory-motor foundation, filling in missed gaps in development and promoting brain connectivity.

Join us to learn how to integrate key reflexes* and use neurodevelopmental movements for helping children and adults maximize their potential.Professional Development/16 Clock Hours are available for this course.

Class will be held at Bainbridge Island Fire Department, Community Room, 8895 Madison Avenue NE, Bainbridge Island, Washington, 98110. Register by October 22nd and receive a free 2-DVD set: “Get Ready for School” by Robyn Cox ($35 value)

NEW TOPSoccer Group in Pierce County Area

A new TOPSoccer group is forming in the south Pierce County area.
TOPSoccer is a great opportunity for kids with any diagnosis to
participate in soccer and have a one-on-one buddy to help facilitate
their experience.

TOPSoccer in the South Pierce County Area will meet at:
Tillicum Elementary School
8514 Maple Street SW
Lakewood, WA

It's very convenient for military families and right off I-5. The
coach has 10 years experience working with special needs children and
20 years playing and coaching soccer. We will be meeting Sundays from
3-4pm. There will be a parent meeting beforehand, unfortunately we
are still waiting on the okay for field usage. The great thing about
TOPSoccer, each child will have their own buddy! If you prefer to
furnish your buddy for your child, please let us know.

If you are interested, you will need to register with the Washington
Youth Soccer, at:
