Verbally Guided Movement Puzzles

Prioritizing the quality of the movement rather than the achievement of it, students engage their curiosity, let go of will and solve each puzzle in their own timing.  The learning is fun, challenging and often times surprising.

PAUSE…..

• gives our brain a chance to notice what has changed as a result of the movement experiment.
