An Innovative, Science-Based Method Supported By Brain Plasticity Research

Anat Baniel Method® NeuroMovement® evolved from over 30 years of Anat Baniel’s close study and experience with practical applications of brain plasticity principles with thousands of clients. The method’s approach is founded in neuroscience and the biodynamics of the human body, and supported by current brain plasticity research.

Individual sessions and group classes utilize gentle movements, combined with the 9 Essentials, helping clients to discover easier and more efficient ways to move, clearer and more creative thinking, and greater vitality and well-being.

“Movement Is the Language of the Brain.”

~Anat Baniel

How Can You Get a Better, Stronger Brain?

“We have a brain for one reason and one reason only—and that’s to produce adaptable and complex movements.” ~Daniel Wolpert
The brain’s job is to organize all action, put order in the disorder, and make sense out of the nonsense.

The human brain is built to continue evolving and increasing levels of skill, refinement, and awareness throughout life. The process of continued learning and growth brings about greater strength and flexibility of body and mind, and helps us to live the life we want.

Start to benefit immediately from this process by applying the 9 Essentials of NeuroMovement® Try a short NeuroMovement video lesson.

Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor: This Work Is Cutting-Edge

“Anat applies the exact same principles when helping people overcome limitation that I used to recover my brain and body from stroke.”

“She understands that for any meaningful change to happen in the way we think, move, and use our body, the change has to happen in the brain.”

~Jill Bolte Taylor, PhD, World Renowned Author of My Stroke of Insight, Ted Talk Presenter, and International Public Speaker

Slow

Fast, you can only do what you already know. Slow gets your brain’s attention and stimulates the formation of rich neural networks. Slow way down to learn and master new skills and overcome limitations. View our video on the Slow Essential.

Variation

Variation is at the heart of learning. Call it play, mistakes, or exploration. Introduce variation into what you do, and your brain will create new possibilities in your movements, feelings, thoughts, and action. View our video on the Variation Essential.

4

Subtlety

Reduce the force with which you move, think, and act. Develop greater sensitivity that will enhance your brain’s ability to perceive the finest of differences, and therefore learn. View our video on the Subtlety Essential.

5

Enthusiasm

Enthusiasm is a skill you can develop. It is a choice to appreciate and take delight in small things. Enthusiasm amplifies what is important to you and grooves in new learning in your brain. View our video on the Enthusiasm Essential.

The Learning Switch

The brain is either in a learning mode—or not. Stress, fear, and fatigue turn the switch off. When you are alert and interested, your learning switch is on. Once on, life becomes a wonderful new adventure. View our video on the Learning Switch Essential.

Imagination & Dreams

With imagination, you can create what has never been there before. Dreams call us and guide us from our future. Both of these will elevate you to new heights, transcending your limitations. View our video on the Imagination & Dreams Essential.

Awareness

Awareness is an action; it is the glue of learning. It’s a unique human capacity that can catapult you to remarkable heights. When you are aware, you are fully alive and present, and your brain is working at its highest level. View our video on the Awareness Essential.
