CHILDREN'S TRAINING
The Dynamic Integration™ training emphasizes neurological development. One of the major exercises is to help the child develop normal neurological activity of opposite arm and leg movement. Cross crawl activity was first defined by Dr. Paul Dennison who saw that left and right visual fields, development of bilateral movement skills for crawling, walking, or seeing depth is essential to the child’s growing sense of autonomy. It is also a prerequisite for whole-body coordination and ease of learning in the near-visual area. Cross Crawl activity helps to integrate binocular vision, binaural hearing, and the left and right sides of the brain and body.
Many children beginning school have not been developmentally prepared for bilateral, two-dimensional skills of near-point work. Some children are coordinated for play or sports activities (involving three-dimensional space and demanding binocular vision only beyond arm’s length). Some children are able to use both eyes, ears, hands, and brain hemispheres for near-point work, such as reading, writing and other skills involving fine-motor coordination. Other students show coordination for academic skills or near-point activities, yet are not ready for whole-body coordination on the sporting activities. Advanced Nerurological training enables the child to make connections between mind, body, eye, hand, foot coordination to enhance developmental of fine motor skills and groos motor skills and enables the child to have confidence in their response time. All children want to succeed, when they see obstacles, they act out to distract others from what they cannot do.
There are many versions of Cross Crawl activity. Depending on the neurological activity needed by the child, multiple versions are used to stimulate all areas of the brain involved in proprioception.
