Just For Fun: Playful Movement to Nourish Brain and Body

According to “Kids Beyond Limits,” in the first three years of life, the brain grows four fold, reaching 80% of its adult weight. This increase in size is due primarily to an increase in the number of connections between nerve cells.

And, of course, a playful engagement with and in the world is a major contributor to the exuberance and thrill of child development.

How does this relate to we adults, wanting to live a life of spontaneity, joyfulness, and well-being?

When we live a life frequently engaging in movement of many varieties, done with curiosity and attentiveness, it stimulates our imagination, engages those billion trillion synapses in each of our brains, and provides a life of spontaneity and pleasure!

We look forward to seeing you in the four week Feldenkrais series with Paul Mcandrew, Just For Fun: Playful Movement to Nourish Brain and Body.
