For kinesiologists, this training offers valuable insight into how movement influences brain integration and development, enriching your practice with practical tools to enhance balance, focus, and wellbeing. -
What is Movement Based Learning (MBL)?
Movement Based Learning (MBL) uses purposeful movement to support and enhance the learning process. This approach can be applied in a variety of contexts – in healthcare, education, and at home.
For Kinesiologists and Practitioners
Healthcare and support professionals can use MBL to assist both adults and children in their development. The movements help to unblock developmental delays, support recovery after trauma, and stimulate motor growth. In addition, they strengthen the connection with oneself and with others.
By integrating movement into the guidance process, learning and daily functioning become not only more effective, but also more enjoyable and relaxed.For Parents
As a parent, you want to give your child the best possible start in life. Parenting can be intense and emotional – and that’s perfectly normal. In this training, you will learn how to use simple movements to support your child – and yourself – through challenging moments.
You can also incorporate these movements as healthy, everyday habits that bring more calm, balance, and connection within your family.Special Needs
Originally, the Building Block Activities were mainly used with individuals with specific needs – such as children and adults with disabilities, or people recovering from a stroke.
Today, we know that these movements are beneficial for everyone. They bring movement, focus, and relaxation to people of all ages. I personally use them with nearly all my clients, always with noticeable results.The Building Block Activities
During the training, you will learn the seven Building Block Activities – practical, hands-on movements suitable for babies, children, teenagers, adults, and seniors.
These exercises form a solid foundation for motor development, which is essential for growth, learning, and emotional balance.The training is practical and experiential. You will gain insight into the 3D body and discover why balance in the three dimensions of movement is so important for learning and development. You will experience the movements yourself, practice them individually or in pairs, and learn how to easily apply them in your work or daily life.
Universally Applicable
The movements are suitable for people of all ages and abilities, including those with disabilities or specific challenges.
