About the Project

This project will provide students the equipment needed to do specific exercises that will expand their focus, promote self-challenge, increase cooperation and foster peer teaching. Through the use of balance boards, sand-filled bags and racquetballs, students will learn a series of up to 200+ exercises which cause multiple mid-line crossings in the brain and enable the whole mind-body to experience a steady, rhythmic sense of focus and peacefulness. We have used this program with 12 at risk students and found such positive results academically and behaviorally that we hope to expand to the entire school population.
