By completing a series of 26 specifically designed Brain Gym activities that are easy and enjoyable to do and directly enhance brain function, combined with a goal and a 5 step Edu-k balance process, integration occurs. Whole brain-body integration allows you to activate communication between the two brain hemispheres and the whole body for crossing the visual/auditory/kinesthetic and tactile midline. It is in this integrated state that you can experience the whole brain and body working together simultaneously and new learning can take place.

Here, you will learn PACE.  
Basic actions to get you feeling:
