Hone Your Skill Moving With
the Special Needs Child
Toward New Developmental Horizons
Over my 25+ years as a movement practitioner, teacher, and trainer I have assembled, synthesized, and distilled key concepts and practical applications of our work. I bring these to life in my personalized, experiential, and empowering learning programs that help you deepen your grounding, embodiment, perception, and confidence.
You learn to empower yourself to empower the child.
Whatever your role or experience working with children, you can enliven and elevate your presence, skills, and service. Enjoy more ease, grace, pleasure, and effectiveness in both your personal and professional life.
I look forward to hearing from you!
Sylvia
There is a passionate place in my heart for Children with Special Needs. I work daily with these children and their families, supporting their advances through diverse challenges.
I was trained by Anat Baniel and worked with her for many years as a Trainer and Practitioner at the Anat Baniel Method Center in California. In 2012 I saw an unmet need, and originated my highly focused and personalized NeuroHorizons® Professional Supervision Intensives, Professional Enrichment Seminars, and Parent Seminars, since attended by hundreds of practitioners, parents, and caregivers around the world. My mission is to empower you to empower these great kids.
Sylvia with her colleague Kerstin Baldischwieler authored The NeuroHorizons Primer — the essential "big-picture" handbook for movement practitioners, parents, and caregivers seeking to elevate their service to Children With Special Needs.
In this lucid overview of the science, tools, attitudes, and artistry underlying their embodied approach to movement education, Sylvia and Kerstin set the stage for you to empower yourself to empower these great kids.
