Educational Kinesiology & Brain Gym®

Kay McCarroll, Brain Gym Instructor & International Educational Kinesiology Faculty Member

Educational Kinesiology & Brain Gym®, which originated in the USA, was brought to the UK by Kay in 1984. It is now used in many schools and by special needs pupils to help them improve their concentration and learning skills. It was because of the Brain Gym® work that Kay, a dyslexic, was able to go back to train at the age of 39, as a Chiropractor. 

Educational Kinesiology uses specially targeted movements, Brain Gym®, to develop and enhance the physical and emotional skills that underlie all learning. Originally created to help people with learning blocks, for example in reading, it can also benefit anyone wishing to maximise their potential and improve their skills - in education, business, communication, concentration, sports, the arts and self-development. Many adults as well as children benefit from this self-help programme. Developed by a specialist educator, Paul Dennison PhD, it is used in over 80 countries.

Kay specialises in working with adults for physical, emotional, learning and life goals. She offers brain and sensory preference profiling to enhance understanding and skills in learning, daily life and relationships.
