For all those who want to work with special needs kids there will be a Zoom meeting with Sylvia Leiner Shordike on Saturday. She will give insights into the NeuroHorizons® training in Europe and Boston, which is aimed at parents, Feldenkrais® practitioners / professionals and caregivers.
2 hours that convey what specifically happens in this training and who can benefit from it and how.
I especially recommend this 1 year training after having participated as an expert in 4 segments in Austria and now having decided to do the whole training in Germany, which has just started.
When I took this photo of the wonderful girl during a session with Sylvia in St. Aegyd 2023, I was deeply impressed by Sylvia's way of working and teaching.
It is remarkable how versatile, easy and clear as well as structured, always meaningful for the child, Sylvia works, teaches and also teaches parents what they can do specifically at home to trigger neuropolasticity in the child's brain, make optimal use of it and create many new connections.
As a Feldenkrais® practitioner (since 2005), an expert in working with special needs kids (since 2014) and as a systemic counsellor and coach (since 1998), I can say that it is fantastic to experience floor work (awareness through movement) and individual work (functional integration) in a completely different way than in conventional training courses and to know that it can be translated 1:1 into my work, to experience and learn from a different perspective.
There are certainly things that we already know and yet I am immersing myself deeper and deeper in a process of development.
Because we learn for a lifetime - as long as the body is warm. :) �And my work with the kids lies in particular in the ongoing personal development and experience on the ground and in the translation into my hands.
Since 2014 I have been working 95% with special needs kids and their parents in my practices in Cologne and Hamburg as well as in projects in Denmark, Switzerland, Austria and Australia. In the process, I have seen a number of teachers and completed training courses on how to work with children. With Sylvia I have found basic structure, clarity and connections between what a child needs and how we can best proceed as well as the connections to the brain. Physiology, neurology and connections to the brain are also taught in a logical and clear way.
I call it a great opportunity to learn with Sylvia and to benefit from her experience, which she definitely has with many different clients and is especially willing to share openly and transparently.
