We play fun games that increase focus and self-control AND learn how to relax our bodies and brains in ways that are easy and enjoyable, in an alternating, purposeful fashion! Great for ADHD and/or emotional/regulation challenges.

Class Experience

I teach several formats of this class -- 5x a week, this 3x a week version, as well as ongoing 1x a week. 

In this class, we meet three times a week for two weeks. We will alternate between activities that are more physically active that will challenge students’ focus and self-control and activities that help children learn to relax their bodies and brain. This purposeful alternating will help students learn to slow back down after stimulating activities and grow their mental and emotional...

Students will improve their impulse control and gain relaxation techniques for overall increased emotional regulation and executive functioning skills.

I have been working with children with various diagnoses (ADHD, anxiety, etc) for over eight years, teaching them executive function and relaxation strategies in a way that they enjoy.

None. However, I will be providing handouts of the relaxation techniques that we used in each class. Students are encouraged to practice these on their own when they're feeling calm, making it easier for them to remember how to use them when needed. The more practiced the brain is, the better!

DAY 1: 
Students will need an instrument or anything that creates sound (could be a pot and a spoon to use as a drum). 
Students will need a small stuffed animal or a soft object that can rest on their belly.

DAY 2:  Your child will need something to color with, a sheet of blank paper, and a mandala of their choice from the provided file. If you don't have access to a printer, another piece of blank paper is okay, too. 

DAYS 3-6:
No supplies are needed.

2 hours 45 minutes per week in class, and maybe some time outside of class.
