Brain Gym

I am so surprised that there is not more about brain gym on this website. Brain gym is the most wonderful program that I have encountered. I love brain gym.
My 8 year old son was diagnoised with mild cerable palsey in second grade. that was a very difficult but enlighting year. My son was in remedial reading and was having difficulty staying on task. He had poor fine and gross motor skill. He has a high IQ and was not working up to his potential. He was in the process of having a iep develooped which included physical theraphy, occupational thearpy and the resoure room along with special reading classes.
NOW IS THE GOOD PART…… During the summer my son’s OT was enroled in the brain gym training for special education teachers his OT was so endeared to my son that when there was an opportunity to have a Child with special needs to come to the class to demenstrate how to work with brain gym. I had heard of brain Gym and knew it was an oppornutity of a life time. I just did not know how great of an experience this was going to be. my son attended the seminar and showed off his skills , running, skipping and throwong a ball along with writing on the board. all these skills were delayed. He did not realize we were observing him because of his difficulties. I was amazed as the instructor proceeded in playing the games and using brain gym activites his skills were ingreassing the most amazing to me ( which made me cry) was when my son and written on the board and his writing was all different sizes not in a straight line. then after a few brain gym excerises he wrote beautifuly, like a pro, he skipped from one end of the room to the other and could kick a ball over the heads of all the people in the room, he ran with no awkwardness. I was amazed and crying. Now his teacher does brain gym in the class Traditional classroom. and he is now the top 100 3rd grade reader, he gets A+ on all of his cursive writing and he gets alll of his work done. he his doing fantastic in all things that he tries. He even doubled his bowling average this weekend. Well I hope if any one has questions about brain gym working this testimonial will confince them.
