Drawing from current science, this course will explore the neurological and anatomical foundations for proprioception, interoception, and vestibular processing. Practical application and discussions will illuminate how these sensations play a key role in self-referencing and body mapping for enhanced sense of our physical and emotional self.

Exploring the Core’s Developmental Roots
Core is a popular topic among therapists, Pilates and yoga instructors, and exercise enthusiasts; however, it is often poorly defined. This course will provide a clear description of the core based on current research and discuss the neuro-physiological rationale for evaluating core development and function in individuals with sensory processing difficulties. Core function will be explored from its developmental roots in the unfolding of the primary movement patterns (innate reflex development). Two key patterns (Moro and Tonic Labyrinthine) and their connections to core development and self-regulation will be discussed. All lectures will come to life through clinical videos of both assessment and treatment strategies.
