Brain Dance — Medium
What is the Brain Dance?
Developed by leading dance educator Anne Green Gilbert, the Brain Dance is a movement structure for the body and brain that moves through eight fundamental patterns of early human development. It helps the brain reorganize, oxygenate and recuperate, prepares us for learning for an exam or presentation, or wakes us up after sitting for long periods. It increases our energy and reduces stress.
