Bal-A-Vis-X is a series of Balance/ Auditory/ Vision eXercises, of varied complexity, all of which are rooted in rhythm. These exercises require full-body coordination and focused attention. The program utilises sand-filled bags, raquet balls, and balance boards. It demands coorperation, promotes self-challenge, and fosters peer teaching. It is school friendly and just plain fun. In distilled essence, Bal-A-Vis-X enables the whole mind-body system to experience the natural symmetrical flow of a pendulum.
Bal-A-Vis-X is for every student. It is effective for students who are labeled:
- Learning Disabled - Cognitive integration improves
- Behaviourally Disordered - Behaviour "settles"
- ADD/ADHD - Impulsivity decreases and attention span increases
- Gifted - Physical coordination improves and stress headaches diminish
- Regular - Academic success improves yet requires less effort
Bal-A-Vis-X benefits students whose auditory skills are inadequate for academic success. Such students "hear" but do not attend to the precise details of:
-
pronunciation
-
verbal instruction
-
discussion
For these students, the rhythmic patterns of Bal-A-Vis-X create a new awareness of the nuances of sound.
Bal-A-Vis-X is for students whose visual acuity may be 20/20, yet whose vision remains deficient in
-
ocular motility (tracking)
-
binocularity (teaming)
-
visual form perception (discrimination of details)
For all students the gains in eye-hand coordination and subsequent growth in overall confidence, hence, self-esteem, are readily observable.
