Sometimes we have trouble sitting still, focusing, recalling information, and more. Feeling unsettled can be the brain's way of telling us that we need to move, and that's a GOOD thing! It helps us to understand what our bodies need for success and development. These brain exercises can be done to prepare for school, chores, sports, and more.

I will explain the body's "midlines" using a simple diagram and have the students find those midlines for themselves so they know what they are trying to accomplish during many of our movements. 

Each week's video will be posted on Sundays to prepare for a successful week. The class will learn a total of 12 brain exercises. 
Throughout each week the learners will be asked to: post a recording of themselves performing the new exercises, recognize and report usage and effects, report results, try modifications I provide (if necessary), recognize other exercises that are good for the brain, and teach someone else a brain exercise. At the end of the course, they will be asked to create and record their own brain exercise.  Assignments will be completed through videos, surveys, online games (kahoot), offline games (simon says), word searches, and more.

*If you have already taken my brain exercise classes, you will see one or two repeats, but the majority are not taught in my one-time classes.

Week 1: TWO midline brain exercises to activate both hemispheres and set each day for success. 

Week 2: TWO hand-brain exercises for concentration that can be done while seated. 

Week 3: TWO midline brain exercises for focus. 

Week 4: TWO hand-brain exercises for decision-making. 

Week 5: TWO brain exercises for memory. 

Week 6: TWO brain exercises for alertness.

Week 7: We will review what we learned and each learner will record a brain exercise they create, or report their favorite/ most effective exercise. 
A list of the exercises learned will be given in a detailed instruction sheet at the conclusion of the FLEX class.
