Students will learn movement skills, eg mime, tai chi and more, integrating breathing techniques that help students work on self-regulation strategies that address stress, anger and or frustration. Students work mindfully moving in and out of each other's space, working on spatial relationships, tolerance, inclusivity, and non-verbal communication. Students take away a toolbox of techniques to call for in school and out of school situations that arise from interactions and circumstances
Students learn about the connections between thought and action, how our minds and bodies can work together more to help us to link ideas and manifest them more positively. Students explore abstract concepts for example paradox of letting go and holding on simultaneously, and the Science behind it that Einstein refers too as holding two separate ideas and entertaining that both can exist within the same realm. Students explore movement ideas including tableaux , and spatial harmonies/dissonance
Students learn to create space in between thoughts ideas and actions, which can result in a more empowered response using breathing techniques, and slowing down thought patterns and habits of mind.
They learn about observation/reflection and being able to access these before jumping into action and reaction.
Students are given a Chinese story to dissect, create physical learning from and draw conclusions.
