Miracles, Miracles and More Miracles!

The human body is just so amazing and fasincating!

The way through movement one can be one way and after a 45 minute lesson that way of being has changed. Out of pain, a shift of awareness, feeling a part of you that you could not feel before.

All this is what happened to one of my children while in Edmonton! She for the first time in her two years of life, has more control over her head.

For most of her life her head would just fall backwards! Now, thanks to her great skill for learning she can bring her head forward. I found it totally amazing how she just took this stimulation and turned it into information that has impowered her to feel not only her head, but more of her the upper part of her spine and connect it down to her pelvis.

When she first started to roll over, she would fling over by using her head. Now, she rolls through her spine and lets her legs, arms and head come along for the ride.

This little girl always amazes me! She is not the only one, but she takes all in and uses it. My dream or vision was to see her crawl, but she first has to feel her spine, her head and her pelvis. That is what she is doing now.

While on her belly she is now for the first time in her life, reaching for objects. Things that are taken for granted with most children. What miracles will present themselves next time seeing her, I don't know, but I do know that she takes the information and uses it the way her brain needs to funtction to get to the next level!

Have a wonderful Easter Weekend!

2. Transitions: How to evoke successful transitions from position to position.
Understanding how to work with transitions such as, moving from lying to sitting, and sitting to squatting, and squatting to standing, and how transitions are utilized by the brain to master the next “developmental stage” or “developmental milestone.”

3. Walking – knowing when and how.

4. Understanding and working with the relationships between earlier functions and later, higher functions.

5. How to utilize increasingly more challenging TMLs to enhance the child's learning process and move the child to his/her next level - next transformation.

6. How to apply the Anat Baniel Method in helping the child with academic/conceptual challenges, such as learning to read, write, math etc.

7. Applying Anat Baniel Method principles and techniques for working with emotions and behavioral challenges.

8. When and how to use adaptive devices. Applying Anat Baniel Method theory and thinking in deciding whether to adopt or reject such equipment.

9. Live demonstrations: Anat will be working on a variety of different children in class.

10. DVDs of FS lessons with children will be shown during breaks.

11. Daily TMLs, lectures, demonstrations, practice, and discussions are all part of the training and the basis for the practitioners' learning and understanding all of the above. In addition, the practitioner will experience further growth and transformation within themselves as a result.
