Here is our latest release for our client, Dr. Paul Dennison, Founder of the Brain Gym Program.
Brain Gym Program Offers Workable Solutions for the Ailing No Child Left Behind Act
Ventura, CA (March, 2008) Nearly 100 school districts in California, who recently failed to meet the NCLB act criteria, risk losing federal funding and are subject to rigorous "remediation" by outside personnel. This situation serves to highlight the necessity for a new paradigm in the support of students' academic progress. Programs such as Brain Gym, created by Paul Dennison, Ph.D., will help. The Brain Gym program is an innovative process that uses developmental movements to address the physical skills behind all academic learning. Benefits include increased concentration and attention, enhanced memory skills, improved organization, and better self-regulation/behavior.
Currently teachers in several thousand public and private schools throughout the U.S. and 80+ other countries utilize the Brain Gym process on a daily basis with outstanding results. Jan Littman, a Resource Specialist (K-6) working in the California public schools shares, "Brain Gym has improved my students' developmental skills (crossing the midline, eye-tracking, and balance) which has in turn improved their academic skills. Supported by current neuroscience, Brain Gym provides students, parents and educators alike easy-to-learn activities, which activate and then integrate all areas of the brain for easier focusing, listening and learning.”
How does it work? When students feel better physically, they perform better academically and enjoy learning more. The program uses easy-to-do developmental movements to "wake up" or "relax" the brain as appropriate. Students experience increased levels of attention, organization, communication, self-confidence and positive attitude towards learning resulting in 20 to 50% higher test scores. Parents and clinicians benefit as well, as it directly impacts readers’ motor, cognitive, behavioral, emotional, visual, and reading skills. Students will discover they can learn faster and more easily, be more focused and organized, start and finish projects with ease and reduced stress, and overcome behavior challenges.
The movement toward higher standards and accountability in our education system has intensified the search for new and innovative ways to support students' learning quotient. Brain Gym® offers a functional teaching model that addresses the underlying skills of learning in any discipline through the use of brain and body developmental principles.

Brain Gym Seminar - West Palm Beach
Hi
I had the most amazing few days. It's rare as a virtual marketer, publicist, when you get the opportunity to actually meet your clients. This week I have the pleasure to do so and it was AMAZING! I was able to get a deeper understanding of everything and also more passion for his program, Brain Gym.
On Thursday I helped put together an event at my daughter's school, Margate Elementary with the help of Nichole Galinkin. They have been doing the Brain Gym Program for a while under the her guidance. It's also strongly supported there by the principal and vice-principal as well, which I'm sure accounts for a great deal of its success. The kids performed many of the Brain Gym exercises for Dr. Dennison, Nichole gave an outstanding summarization of how she utilizes the Brain Gym Program, and then we had the pleasure to hear Dr. Dennison address the parents, educators, and teachers who attended. It was awesome. I think the most special part of the day was when we walked into the school and one child walked up to Dr. Dennison and said, "Are you really Dr. Dennison."Gave him a big hug. and said, "I'm never leaving your side." That summarizes the passion most feel about Brain Gym. The program makes a difference in their lives and it's evident. Even through the kid's probably don't understand how it works, they do know it works and they are doing better in school and at home and for that, they are really grateful. (Of couse, I have to admit, without the support of people like Nichole and the school's backing, I don't think the success would be as great.)
On Saturday, Nichole and I had the pleasure of attending one day of the 4 day Brain Gym Seminar. There I discovered 22 people who were making differences in everyone's lives by taking the program back to their schools, communities, families. I also got the opportunity to learn some of the 26 movements that make up the Brain Gym Program. I know they work because I've seen the results in my own family, with my daughter getting off her ADHD medication and doing so well. But learning how to do them from Dr. Dennison himself and feeling the results, I was even more convinced, not only what I could do for Amber, (my daughter), but myself as well. I wanted this.
I was amazed to see how many schools throughout Florida are now utilizing the Brain Gym Program and to hear the results from those that have been doing it. Success after success. I can't wait to get in touch with them and see how we can make Brain Gym a household word.
Nichole and I were greeted Saturday as part of the Brain Gym family. It's hard to put exactly into words how good that feels. Being part of a family that is dedicated to helping our children achieve more, be more, and just be kids again, was fabulous. And also part of a family that is making a difference for everyone, not just children.
I'm dedicated more than ever now to telling others about Brain Gym and more importantly about Dr. Dennison. He's changing lives every day and I truly hope I can be a vital part of sending that message out.

Discovering Balance in Your Daily Life With The Brain Gym 101 Seminar
Ventura, CA (December, 2008) What does having more balance in life mean to you? It differs for everyone. For some it’s being able to focus more and stay organized on tasks. For others it’s reducing stress and learning how to relax. Yet, for many facing learning and behavior challenges, it can be successfully living with ADD, ADHD or Autism. Wouldn’t it be great to learn how to achieve this in just a few days? You can at the upcoming Brain Gym 101 Seminar in West Palm Beach, Florida. February 1 - 4, 2008. Are you living the life of your dreams? Are you doing the work you love? Are you and your children excited about learning and achieving to your potential? All of this and more are available to you when you have the Brain Gym Program working for you in your daily life.
If you’d like to discover an easy way to enhance your memory, organization, concentration and creativity, this workshop is for you. The Brain Gym 101 Seminar is an extensive 32-hour event presented by Dr. Paul Dennison, founder of the Brain Gym Program. The workshop is open to new students, Brain Gym 101 graduates, and those licensed Brain Gym instructors looking to further develop their Brain Gym skills. The course is centered on the simple, fast and fun 26-targeted movements that make up the Brain Gym Program. These movements consciously activate the mind/body system to release learning blocks and prepare your brain and entire nervous system for optimal learning. Participants are taken step by step through each movement with the detailed Brain Gym 101 Handbook as a guide.
The course promotes efficient communication between the brain and the rest of the body, increasing play and creativity and alleviating stress as it enhances performance, all ingredients for better balance in your life. The success of Brain Gym can be attributed to its effective movements, and balances, as well as to its addressing the physical skills of learning.
Since the 1980s the field of Educational Kinesiology, the study of movement and its relationship to learning, has touched people of all ages and cultures. Brain Gym has been introduced in homes, classrooms, businesses, and places of learning in more than 80 countries on all seven continents with rapid and often dramatic improvement in reading, writing, language and numerical skills. Many others use the work to profoundly enhance the quality of their attention and concentration, memory and organizational skills, athletic performance, and more. The popularity of brain exercises today supports the positive and dynamic effects of stimulating brain movements.
The workshop also explores the five learning principles central to Brain Gym Work. They include:
1) Draw Out: Intelligence is Inborn
2) Focus: Attention Follows Intention
3) Notice: We Learn What We Actively Experience
4) Move to Learn: Growth Is a Search for Balance, Imbalance a Search for Growth
5) Interconnect: Each of Us Is Affected by Each Other
