Smart Movement 1: Healthy Body, Healthy Mind

Melissa Rinvold, the creator of Smart Movement 1, has taught children’s art and movement classes for over twenty years. Previously a home educator herself, Melissa has confidence that this is a wonderful fitness program for families to implement in a homeschooling environment.

Smart Movement 1 is geared toward making the body and brain stronger and smarter, and also boosting the innate wisdom of the body to heal itself. It shows how to move correctly and safely and also to circuit the brain to greater function, resulting in a stronger immune system, better co-ordination, less injury, heightened awareness and increased sensitivity. When both the right and left lobes of the brain are working in a synchronized manner, we experience more of the brain working all at once.

The manual is addressed to children and is also excellent for the beginner. It is suitable for all ages. The movements are easy and FUN! The photographic depictions of each posture, with accompanying instructions and variations, can all be removed from the manual, laminated and used in a classroom, office or workout space.

Having attended a few of Melissa’s classes myself, I’ve experienced increased energy, decreased stress, and a healthier positive attitude.


PLEASE NOTE:

Melissa would be willing to offer either a one-time class, or four weekly classes
(one month in total) depending on your feedback.

Discussion, Demonstration and Q&A: $10 per family, per class

1 ½ hours, participation encouraged
