Movement lesson^TM

Created by Michelle Turner, Movement Lesson^TM is a therapy where clients get a lesson in movement, where they learn to organize their bodies in new and more optimal ways. It is a natural, a very gentle and non-invasive way to support and optimize brain development through movement. Movement Lesson^TM itself is not only a method, it is a lens through which

“reflexes, milestones, and functional movements are no longer mysteries or accidents of development. They are predictable, observable and teachable.” (Turner, Michelle M. Neuromuscular Child Movement Assessment Reflex Edition, Page 7).

The goal of Movement Lesson^TM is to give the body a new and more optimal movement vocabulary by creating movement and interconnecting the body and brain through a specific movement structure. It follows a unique Optimal Development Standard and focuses on the person’s relationship with gravity and natural rotational forces.

Most importantly, Movement Lesson^TM does not focus on “fixing” the child, but rather on teaching a child new movement vocabulary that can let them reach the best possible developmental outcomes.
