When you or your child have a Brain Gym balance, it's often helpful to continue movements at home to help "anchor" the new learning. Home play is a great way to keep building mind-body connections on your own--without daily sessions with a Brain Gym consultant.

The gem of Brain Gym is to know you have choice--there's no prescription, but there's lots of beneficial play. Choose a movement that will help you hold on to the great feeling you've experienced through more in-depth Brain Gym sessions. Keep in mind, the movements shown are best experienced within the process of a Brain Gym balance--a 5-step process which includes setting a goal and understanding how close you are to "owning" the goal you want. Movements, indepth work and repatterning are options you may choose when you meet with a consultant for a Brain Gym session.

The following photos are based on the work of Paul Dennison, Ph.D and Gail E. Dennison. Read more about how to do the movement and why the movements work through the Dennison's book "Brain Gym Teacher's Edition." Click here to buy the book.

Exercise Balls

The BigBall™ is 65cm and is made of a very durable polyvinyl rubber-like material. It is thick and tough--much more durable than the usual yoga or PT exercise ball. It will stand up to great use with a burst rating similar to the Duraball. The ball has been tested for animal use--and stands up to kicks from horses and even rough elephant play! The BigBall™ can be used as an exercise ball for stretching and abdominal work. It also works well as a comfortable desk chair or as a tool to use when teaching children--activating the grounding reflex. Buy this ball--you won't have to replace it for a long time. Colors may vary. We have blue in stock currently.
