Five-day Intensive Experiential Workshop for Parents & Caregivers of Special Needs Children

Taught by Anat Baniel

Supported by our Team of ABM Practitioners

With Guest Coach Randy Roberts

We are thrilled to announce our second NeuroMovement® for Parent and Child with Special Needs 5-day Intensive Experiential Workshop. The first workshop was a great success. We all were inspired by the transformations in the children and in their parents.

Life changing. Amazing. Empowering. This, of course, changes and guides my interaction with Reagan but also my son, husband, etc. All aspects were so important and added so much.
—Karrie Y.

In this workshop, we will provide parents and caregivers with the tools to help transform the life of the child with challenges.

Anat Baniel, from the time she began working with children with special needs, understood that the opportunities for breakthrough improvements for the child with special needs lie in the brain. Over many years of seemingly miraculous outcomes, Anat kept examining what the brain requires and the conditions it needs in order to overcome limitations, often times considered insurmountable.

In this workshop, you will learn about these conditions and the 9 Essentials for Vitality,® the NeuroMovement® method that Anat has defined. Most importantly you will have the opportunity, with your child in the room with you, for a few hours every day, to learn ways to apply these Essentials in your daily life.

You will also experience the NeuroMovement work on yourself. You will enhance your own well-being and will have a deep understanding, on feeling and cognitive levels, of what your child is going through. You will learn ways to help your child become the brilliant learner s/he was born to be. You will be able to help your child to continue to progress beyond his or her limitations. Your own vitality, flexibility, and clarity of thinking will be enhanced, and you will gain powerful awareness and new parenting tools to transform stress, pain, worry, and guilt into greater connection and freedom with your child.

Why Attend This Workshop?

View the video below to hear what participants had to say about last year’s 5-day Parent and Child with Special Needs workshop.

We encourage you to consider this workshop if your child is between the ages of
5 days old and 17 years old and has been diagnosed with:

• Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)
• Cerebral Palsy
• Stroke
• Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD or ADHD)
• Genetic Disorders
• Developmental Delays
• Other Conditions that affect your child’s learning

Our son was born at 27 weeks and sustained a grade IV bleed in his brain. Doctors told us it was practically certain he would develop cerebral palsy (CP). He started receiving ABM [Anat Baniel Method Lessons] at three months, and today, at five years old, his neurologist is amazed that he has no signs or symptoms of CP. We are so grateful.—Betsy K.

Request Forms will be reviewed in the order received. After review, a Registration and Payment Form will be emailed to you to complete the signup process.

It was so valuable for me to be able to apply the Essentials in the book to my daughter’s life (and mine). I was able to connect with her on a much higher level after the first day of the workshop.—Ariel C.

In this experiential NeuroMovement workshop:
Each child gets one Functional Synthesis (one-on-one) session each day with an experienced ABM Practitioner for a total of 5 lessons.
Each adult gets a total of 2 Functional Synthesis sessions.
One half of each day you will spend with your child with you in the workshop. Anat and her team of practitioners will guide you as to how to specifically apply the Essentials with your child.
The other half of each day, Anat will be teaching the parents and caregivers, preparing you for the next “with your child” half-day.

This is a value of $1500 for private individual lessons, which is included in the cost of this workshop.

These half-days will include:
♦ Introduction of the Essentials, the science behind them, and the theory behind the practice
♦ Transformational group movement lessons
♦ One-on-one practice with other participants
♦ Demonstrations on children by Anat Baniel
♦ Q&A sessions

Every day, during the “Adult” half-day, Randy Roberts will teach “Parenting as Leadership.” She will work with you, providing you with powerful tools and distinctions to further promote your ability to help your child and bring ABM and the Essentials into your daily life.

Traditional therapies are all about the limitations of the child; Anat’s work is all about the possibilities.
—Trish Karlinski, mother of Isabelle,a 5-year-old with cerebral palsy
