Brain Gym

Chapel School Preschool

This movement program has been part of the Chapel School curriculum for over 6 years. Based on 26 movements, Brain Gym can assist anyone in any new learning situation by increasing  focus, balance in their bodies and working from an integrated, whole brain place. These simple movements assist a learner in coming from a non-stressful place when learning something new.
Water is a key component of this program. A well hydrated body is more balanced and ready for any new experience.
Brain Gym is done daily with all age groups at Chapel School. A 10-15 minute session includes drinking water and incorporating several different Brain Gym movements with singing songs, breathing and finishing with affirmations like – “I am so special”, “I love myself” and “I am amazing”! Social/emotional curriculum pieces are also included during these sessions.
Our 4 year old children leave Chapel School having learned all 26 Brain Gym movements and become Brain Gym leaders during the school year. For more information or to read testimonials, please go to braingym.org.
