Dynamic Movement Across the Grades: Harnessing The Power of Movement for Healthy and Harmonious Classrooms

Friday, December 2, 2022 - Saturday, December 3, 2022

An online workshop for grades one-eight teachers

Calling all grades teachers! Our online workshop for grades 1-8 educators explores techniques for building healthy rhythms that support the teacher’s classroom management and meet each child’s physical, emotional, and academic growth.

Participants will work with developmental and foundational movement patterns to address student behaviors; extra lesson activities to support classroom learning; and rhythm and breathing activities to harmonize the group. We’ll also be looking at student experience — including self-regulation, impulse control, restlessness, distractibility, etc. — and how movement activities can bring balance and wellness to the classroom.

NOTE: This event has been designed fully for grades 1-5 educators, while also containing information relevant for middle school teachers. Let us know on your registration form if you’re an upper grades teacher so our facilitator can be certain to bring material that will meet your needs.
