Approach to Dynamic Posture Control DESCRIPTION:Live In-Person Course\n\nOur earliest developmental experiences\, including the sensorimotor and relational components\, feed the expression of posture and our quality of movement. These fundamental experiences not only contribute to the external\, observable aspects of posture\, but also one’s sense of self-competence in the development of the physical “me” in the field of gravity and in relationship to another. In some instances\, the combination of key sensorimotor and relational components do not align to support the unfolding of stability\, mobility\, and freedom of expression through movement. This lack of postural integrity can negatively impact the development of fine motor\, gross motor\, postural attention for higher-level learning\, and our ability to fully engage with the people and events around us. \nAs therapists\, we must train our eyes to recognize\, through key clinical observations\, when these early foundations for posture and movement are disrupted. Furthermore\, by understanding the unfolding of the developmental sequence and the key sensorimotor inputs therapists will be better equipped to design and implement tailored interventions necessary for the development of adaptive posture and physical expression of emotion. \nThis course will explore the developmental unfolding of posture\, starting with the dynamic merging of sensations with key primary movement patterns to form our early physical base through the later development of anti-gravity skill\, bilateral integration\, and organized actions of relating in time and space. A combination of lecture\, video examples\, and experiential labs will be included throughout the course to further participants’ understanding of the developmental sequence and sensorimotor components of postural development and the affective\, qualitative aspects of movement. \n\n \n Register Here! \n \nThis course is sponsored by an outside organization and all registrations are managed through their organization.

It is integration of sensory information that holds the key for finding meaning in the world. This two-day course will explore the connections of the vestibular-visual-auditory triad and their subsequent impact on function. Additionally\, this course will provide participants with a precise template for intervention strategies\, including administration of Astronaut Training. \nWho Should Attend:\nOccupational therapists\, speech/language pathologists\, physical therapists\, educators\, human services professionals\, and other medical professionals. Graduating students or graduate students of the aforementioned fields are also welcome. \nCertification:\nParticipants will receive a certification in the Astronaut Training Protocol. This course provides participants with the necessary background information to immediately begin incorporating Astronaut Training into their programs. \nRegister\nThis course is sponsored by an outside organization and all registrations are managed through their organization.

However\, from a developmental\, body-based\, sensory integrative approach\, prior to participation it is essential to organize the body for regulated engagement across all environments and tasks. \nThis two-day course will introduce participants to the clinical reasoning template of “Ready\, Steady\, Go” which blends theory\, assessment\, and treatment activities into one approach. Ready\, Steady\, Go serves as a guiding template to structure treatment from the basis of regulating one’s physiological arousal and organizing movement within time and space as a precursor to participation in all aspects of life. \nLecture content will convey the importance of breath\, emotional motor system\, embodied self-awareness\, and state regulation (“Ready”); working from the ground up to establish stable and dynamic postural control in conjunction with organization of the eyes and ears (“Steady”); and developing coordinated movement within three-dimensional space and as key foundations for accessing higher-level skills of self-monitoring and sustained attention (“Go”). \nTheoretical lectures will be supplemented by video examples and interactive treatment labs where participants will be introduced to assessment and treatment activities that correspond with each of the three components of the approach. This course will be appropriate for occupational therapists and other health professionals working in private practice\, school\, or home environments as discussions will include how to adapt principles for individuals or groups/classrooms. \nWho Should Attend:\nOccupational therapists\, speech/language pathologists\, physical therapists\, psychologists\, and other interested allied health providers. \n\n \n Register Here! \n \nThis course is sponsored by an outside organization and all registrations are managed through their organization.

It is a voluntary act. Active listening is dynamic and continually adapting. Listening requires the desire to communicate and the ability to focus the ear on certain sounds selected for discrimination and interpretation. An individual actively listens and directs attention to sounds in the environment with the whole body. \nThrough the dedicated work of Sensory Integration by Dr. Jean Ayres and many others\, we have learned the way in which we take in\, process and adapt to sensations within our internal and external environment and that it has a direct impact on functional skills and occupational performance. Just as the vestibular\, somatosensory and visual systems play significant roles in sensory integrative treatment\, the auditory system has widespread connections to the brain and entire body. Thus\, the use of auditory-based therapy tools may be used to support improved sensory processing and integration—ultimately enhancing function. \nThis three-day workshop presents an evidence-based protocol\, which combines a sound-based intervention with sensory integrative activities to create a comprehensive approach that is effective for diverse populations with sensory challenges.

When an individual cannot adequately process and integrate sensory information and/or traumatic experiences\, the body’s arousal and self-regulatory mechanisms become altered thus impacting our ability to adequately cope with seemingly harmless day-to-day stressors. \nThis workshop will explore the connections between trauma\, sensory integrative difficulties\, arousal\, affect\, and self-regulation. Participants will learn how sound and movement are critical in the development of body based\, perceptual-motor\, and social-emotional foundations for feeling safe in the world and in relationship to another. Treatment labs will explore the basics of auditory and vestibular/somatosensory processing\, and their relationship to arousal\, attachment\, self-regulation\, and learning.

Due to the practical implementation and immediate effect of these albums\, they are easily utilized in a variety of environments. Quickshifts can effectively be used in treatment sessions\, home programs\, school setting\, or as a support prior to times of increased anxiety\, such as during transitions. Even more\, you will learn how to solidify changes through treatment strategies that activate movement and the power of the core (posture/breath). Come learn how to develop precise and strategic intervention techniques for the clinic\, home\, and school. \nEnrollment Page\nInternational Location\nHamilton House\nMabledon Place\, Kings Cross\nLondon\, WC1H 9BD\nUnited Kingdom \nSchedule\nMonday\, June 10\, 2019\, 9:00am – 5:15pm BST \nLevel\nIntroductory \nInstructors\nAnna Richardson; B.Sc.
