Course dates: TBC

Venue: TBC
How to Register: TBC
Who can attend: Prequisite Level 1
Each course comes with a Manual and an Attendance certificate for CPD.
This 1 day course looks at how using rhythmic movements can help develop and link up the Limbic system to the Prefrontal cortex to help manage many emotional challenges. Many children have stressful lives and this affects how they are able to learn. When the ‘fight / flight’ system is constantly being triggered, teachers and parents cannot expect a child to be able to learn. First, a child needs to feel safe, relaxed and connected. There are reflexes that need to be inhibited for the Limbic system to function properly, to learn about ‘who we are’ and to feel connected and secure in the world around us. You will learn how motor development and play is very important to help with emotional development, behaviour and memory.
We will cover –
- The Limbic System and the important role it plays in our emotional development?
- Learning to feel and be safe before learning can take place well enough
- The role of the defensive reflexes in developing our ability to be safe
- How infants handle stress
- The importance of play for development
- How using RMT can help people with Autism
- How upper and lower body need to communicate well for learning
- Possible correlations between conditions, behaviours and reflexes


- Learn movements for the linking up of the Limbic system to help manage behaviour and emotions
- Developing the Limbic system to feeling ‘safe, connected and belong’ in the world around us
- How muscle tension affects learning, can ‘hold’ emotions and how to release tension
- How can we improve the ability to manage our emotions?
- The importance of tactile and vestibular stimulation for emotional development
- The importance of play for development of memory and growth of neural networks
- The Moro reflex and how it can affect one or more of the five senses.
- How the ‘Fight / Flight’ system affects the ability to learn
- Learn simple techniques to integrate the Moro reflex
- Severe emotional challenges due to an un-integrated Fear Paralysis Reflex
- Pre-birth movements to help integrate the Fear Paralysis Reflex
- Movements for control of the Lumbar and Thoracic spine relating to emotional development
- Attack and defence behaviour, muscle tension and the Tendon Guard reflex
- Learn movements that relaxes muscle tension and helps reduce suppressed feelings
- Reflexes we address: The Moro, The Fear Paralysis reflex, Tendon Guard Reflex, Babkin reflex
