What is NeuroMovement®

ABM® NeuroMovement® is a body of knowledge and professional practice based on brain plasticity—the brain’s ability to learn, adapt, and create new possibilities throughout life.

Using the Nine Essentials, NeuroMovement® works with movement, attention, variation, and awareness to positively influence learning and development. It helps create the conditions for a person to notice differences, explore, problem-solve, and discover new possibilities—not only in movement, but also in thinking, communication, self-awareness, and everyday function.

Children with developmental challenges, adults seeking greater ease and function, and individuals of all ages can benefit from engaging their natural capacity for learning and change.

 

NeuroMovement®  Supports

  • Learning and development
  • Movement and coordination
  • Thinking and problem-solving
  • Communication and self-awareness
  • Health and well-being
  • Greater ease and function
  • New possibilities at any age

Why Attend Thriving Thursdays?

 

A free online gathering to explore movement, spark curiosity, and discover new possibilities for learning and well-being.

Experience how movement with attention can engage the brain's natural ability to learn and change—known as brain plasticity.

Each gathering offers a new movement lesson, inviting you to explore, engage your thinking, and discover something new about yourself.

Through these experiences, you may discover how to:

  • Develop greater awareness of yourself and notice differences in how you move, think, and respond.

  • Explore variations and new possibilities beyond familiar patterns of movement and thinking.

  • Discover more choices in how you move, respond, and approach everyday activities.

  • Engage more fully in everyday life through greater awareness, curiosity, and flexibility.

No prior experience is needed.

Come curious, participate at your own pace, and join the conversation
