Getting started is often the hardest part. RGM helps by offering a clear, motivating start point.
With structured rhythmic cues, participants know exactly when to begin. The rhythm acts like a green light, breaking the inertia that can cause hesitation or procrastination.

Once the beat begins, so does the action.

***One-Day Teachers' Course: Implementing Neuromotor Readiness for Learning***

Many teachers know the feeling — bright children who struggle to sit still, stay focused, or cope emotionally in the classroom.

Sometimes these challenges aren’t about behaviour or attitude, but about neuromotor readiness — the physical foundations of learning.

This new One-Day Teacher Training Course, led by Alison Harvey of Neuro-Connect, will help educators understand how early movement patterns influence focus, coordination, and emotional control — and what can be done to support children more effectively.

Alison brings a unique perspective as both a pharmacist and parent. Her journey began while searching for help for her own child — and what she found transformed her family’s life.

If your child is struggling with focus, emotions or learning, it’s easy to feel like more “practice,” stricter routines or extra rewards will fix it.

But as Dr. Tony Ebel explains, sometimes the real issue isn’t willpower or behaviour at all – it’s that the lower parts of the brain haven’t fully developed or integrated yet.

When this happens, children may feel like they’re being asked to run before they can walk. What really helps is going back to the foundations – supporting the nervous system through movement, rhythm and regulation.

This bottom-up approach can unlock lasting change in how children feel and function – giving them the stability they need to thrive.

Is your child struggling to copy from the board, read smoothly, or keep up with writing tasks?

The same visual skills used for catching a ball are also key for schoolwork.

Skills like convergence and accommodation help the eyes switch focus between near and far objects. When these don’t develop as expected, children can find everyday tasks like reading, writing, or copying from the board much harder than their peers.

The good news is that these skills can be supported through gentle assessment and targeted exercises – helping children feel more confident both in the classroom and on the playground.
