Rhythmic Movement Training Levels 1 & 2

Learn how rhythmic movements assist in integrating reflexes; Why this is important; and how to stimulate brain connections for increased impulse control, attention, balance, coordination, stamina and learning.     

Learn effective RMT techniques for integrating developmental reflexes that are crucially important for sensory integration as well as social and emotional maturity.

TOPICS INCLUDE:

• How RMT builds neuro-sensory-motor foundations for focus and higher level learning skills   
• Basics on brain development and reflex integration   
• Ways to identify developmental imbalances affecting focus, organization and comprehension   
• Information on a selection of reflexes involved in laying the foundations of focus and comprehension – Tonic Labyrinthine (TLR), Landau, Asymmetrical & Symmetrical Tonic Neck (ATNR &STNR), Spinal Galant, Amphibian, Infant Plantar, & Babinski   
• Methods for assessing and integrating primitive reflexes   
• The passive, active and isometric rhythmic movements used for integrating reflexes      
• Ways to identify (assess/test) retained reflexes affecting emotions, memory and behavior   
• Methods for integrating Fear Paralysis, Moro, Babkin, and Tendon Guard Reflexes   
• Basics on motor function and the limbic system   
• How to release muscle tension and emotional upset   
• Using RMT to increase brain connectivity to the frontal lobes   
• Movements to release anxiety and stored emotional and physical tension   
• Ways to support people with SPD and ASD using RMT
