How I Spent my Weekend in Eugene . . .

8/6/2018

Here's a snapshot of this weekend's intensive:

GATHERING

I enjoyed dynamic collaboration with the PT's at McKenzie Crossing Orthopedic Physical Therapy. Thank you, Cheryl Gesik for inviting me to explore ABM NeuroMovement with your curious staff. I can't wait for our next collaboration.

GETTING CREATIVE

Ollie always keeps me on my toes - so we did a lot of exploring of heels and toes. Sometimes I need another hand, or in this case my leg, to help support/guide/and offer new information.

CHOICES

Singing or counting? Counting to 5 or to 6? My turn or Mukti's turn? This cutie takes it all in quite rapidly! We work, then take a break, then work, then break.

In ABM terms it can be described as learn / integrate / learn / integrate.

EASY PEASY LEMON SQUEEZY KATHY

Yep, that is my name to Gideon! That is what he calls me and that is how he introduces me. I love this kid! He takes his learning home!!! And, if you want to know what "easy peasy lemon squeezy" means? Well, I think you can ask any one of my kiddos and they will show you!

HERE AND THERE

We all have movements/patterns that we do without thinking. A person with CP might experience this powerfully. By naming the movement and going with that system, we can "create" intention into a movement and thereby give it some meaning. Sweet Annalise was going from here to there as she felt her spine engage in rolling to her side. Smarty pants!

Tegan is exploring all things up. Sitting up on his pelvis, arm is up, head is up.

FLUIDITY

This is Lee. He's my BIG kid of this weekend. Lee wanted to feel more fluidity in his lower back. That calls for some pelvic clock! Intrigued???

Call me and we'll talk clocks.

THANK YOU, EUGENE

Looking forward to
seeing you again,
in October!
