Move Autism

Move Autism We work internationally with children and their families to improve brain functioning and overcome disability.

Based on the ground-breaking work of Anat Baniel and the practical philosophy of the Option Institute (home of the Son-Rise Program), Move Autism transforms the lives of children with special needs. Robin Peter Zander founded Move Autism after an eclectic career, which stopped rather abruptly when he broke my neck in the circus. Through training in the Anat Baniel Method and later adopting the practical philosophy of the Option Institute (home of the Son-Rise Program) he recovered, returned to peak performance, and discovered a passion for helping children with special needs. Now Robin focuses on children with autism and helping athletes achieve higher performance. While many people and professionals seek autism as a misfortune, Robin delights in these children's quirks and unique self-regulating behaviors. While the Anat Baniel Method and the Option Institute's teachings are useful for a wide variety of disciplines - and Robin does delight in working with other disabilities and abilities - no other subset of individuals requires the love, acceptance and enthusiasm - that children with autism do to flourish.
