Workshop In the ABM for Parents and Professionals who live and work with Special Needs Kids - There are two modalities for learning in the Anat Baniel Method(sm): transformational movement lessons(TML) and functional synthesis(FS). These are the same lessons delivered two different ways, by guiding verbally or through gentle touch contact. There are more than a thousand movement lessons, many of which are developmentally based, which support and enhance a diversity of dynamic movements. In this workshop, you will experience a group of these lessons, first as movement lessons and then as hands-on skills that directly correlate with those lessons.
