From Fixing to Connecting
Discover a different way of thinking about learning that begins not with fixing—but with connecting
Discover how to create the conditions for learning and growth in a child's everyday life.
Helping a child doesn't always begin
with changing the child
Sometimes it begins by changing
how we see, connect, and learn together
When we change how we approach learning...new possibilities begin to emerge
Join Us to Learn New Ways to Help a Child
Learn, Grow and Develop
From Fixing to Connecting
• 10 Module Online Course • 11 Live Calls • For Parents, Caregivers and Professionals • No Previous Experience Needed •
Right from the first module and lecture you will explore new ways to approach a child.
You’ll discover practical, everyday ways of interacting that can help a child do more:
- Think and learn in new ways
- Problem-solve and explore
- Move with greater ease and awareness
- Develop curiosity and attention
- Build awareness through movement
- Strengthen their ability to learn and adapt
You’ll explore how to apply these easy foundational neuroplastic principles in your own life by:
- Slowing down
- Attending to movement
- Increasing awareness
- Developing curiosity
- Varying how you approach an activity
- Creating opportunities for your child to discover and learn
These principles—known as the Nine Essentials of NeuroMovement®—can be applied in any setting and throughout everyday life.
What you’ll gain from the course
- New perspectives on how your child learns and develops
- Practical strategies you can begin using right away
- Immediate everyday tools to support learning and connection
- A deeper understanding of how movement and attention influence learning
- Greater awareness of how your own presence, curiosity, and connection can influence your child
You’ll begin to discover why something as simple as slowing down or bringing attention to movement can turn on a child’s learning switch—and dramatically change how their learning can evolve.
And as you learn, you’ll discover something else…
Your own way of being with your child matters.
Along the way, you’ll deepen your awareness of how your presence, curiosity, and connection can influence your child’s learning and open the door to new possibilities.
Whether you're joining us for the first time or returning to deepen your understanding, we'd love to have you with us.

About This Course
Are you a parent, grandparent, caregiver, teacher, or therapist supporting a child with special challenges? Do you feel that there is an intelligent, loving child within who could do and be far more than seems possible right now? You may be wondering, What is possible for my child?
In this course you will discover that new possibilities will emerge for you and your child. You will learn new ways of thinking, feeling, and interacting that open new possibilities that can be surprising in their immediacy and simplicity.
When we perceive something as broken, the natural tendency is to try and fix it. This can work well with inanimate objects. Human beings grow and thrive through connection. In this 11-module course, you will explore, experience, and experiment with the meaning and practice of shifting from fixing to connecting, discover its potential to support positive change, and learn how to apply it in your daily life with your child, family member, or in your work.
Based on the pioneering work of Anat Baniel, this course explores how creating the conditions for learning—rather than trying to fix problems—can create the conditions for new possibilities to emerge for children and for the adults who care for them.
What Participants Say
~ Clara C., Physical Therapist
"The course was so amazing. I noticed my own health has improved in the last 10 weeks. I started running again. The people that I support as a physiotherapist have also benefited - from an adult learning to feed herself for the first time, to kids learning to tie their shoelaces for the first time, without me actually asking them to, and a little boy with autism who was able to verbalize his sensory needs for the first time ever.”
~ Lesli T., Parent
"I am very happy and inspired to be a part of this course with so many courageous and amazing parents and therapists. The Essential of SLOW has been hugely successful in just the day-and-a-half of practicing it. It is so simple, yet powerful. I felt such empowerment - both in the outcomes and in the respect was able to give my daughter. THANK YOU, Anat."
~ Chloe M., Parent
"Just applying the nine essentials to myself I'm reclaiming my life and the life of my children and what their lives can be."
