Barbara conducted her first in-depth

trying the movement sequences in a classroom or with their own child.
It was limited in numbers to 6 and held over four days. This gave the
participants the confidence and understanding of the neurological
immaturities leading to learning difficulties and enabled them to go
back to their own communities to implement movement programs and also
to train others.
The content of the seminar was:
The real nature of learning difficulties - neurological immaturity
Assessment
Explanation of the movement program
A visit to a school to watch implementation of the movement program
An explanation of sound therapy
Exploring developmental optometry and its relationship to learning difficulties
