BrainDance. Variations for Infants Through Seniors
In these videos, Anne Green Gilbert and her students (toddlers through seniors) demonstrate variations of the BrainDance.

It can be used at home, at school, in the office and in the dance studio for brain reorganization, connectivity/alignment, a centering body/brain warm-up or to wake-up or calm-down. Variations include rhymes with young children, standing, lying down, and sitting in chairs, travelling and working with partners.
