Are you a teacher, parent, therapist or caregiver on the lookout for ground-breaking tools to transform the lives of your clients and students?
If so, Bal-A-Vis-X was made for you.
What the heck is Bal-A-Vis-X?
Bal-A-Vis-X an evidence-based practice of therapeutic rhythm. It’s coordinated brain integration. It’s collaborative focus-building. And it’s profoundly healing.
Start with a sophisticated, disciplined and time-tested curiosity for the needs of actual learners. Take a few brightly-colored beanbags and a some similarly-colored bouncy balls. Add in a balance board or two, if you like. Mix them thoroughly among more than 300 simple-to-complex exercises that call for full-body engagement and careful attention to tempo. Make sure to include “mid-line crossings” in three dimensions to stimulate all parts of the brain.
Repeat often and enjoy a wide range of physical, cognitive, and emotional benefits across the full spectrum of ages and aptitudes.
“Bal-,” as in balance. “A-,” as in Auditory. “Vis-,” as in Visual. And “X”, as in crossing the midline. Bal-A-Vis-X. It reaches deep and it makes big changes.
