Bal-A-Vis-X is a series  of Balance / Auditory / Vision eXercises of varied complexity, most of which are deeply rooted in rhythm similar to the flow of a pendulum. These exercises require full-body coordination and focused attention and promote multi-sensory learning activities including tactile, kinesthetic movement interventions that can accelerate the development of functional vision skills necessary for a child's learning environment. 

This two day session offers a wide range of hands-on practical strategies and tools for school classrooms, and home programs, to significantly strengthen attention span, focus, listening, eye-hand coordination, balance, self confidence, self regulation and social skills to increase school success.  Included are hands-on activities that support reading, writing and math that are dependent on key visual perceptual skills. 

 Everyone benefits from brain and body integration exercises.   Individuals with physical and learning disabilities, including ADHD/ADD, Autism Spectrum Disorders, Traumatic Brain Injury, Stroke, Cerebral Palsy, Down Syndrome, Trauma, Mental and Emotional Disorders as well as typically developing children can utilize these  exercises in order to optimize learning.
