Move Ahead 2Day

Emotional overwhelm is not always behavioural — it is often neurological.

Many children who overreact, struggle to calm down, or seem constantly on edge are not choosing this behaviour.

Their nervous systems may be under stress due to retained reflexes such as the Moro reflex or Fear Paralysis reflex.

When these early survival reflexes remain active, the body can stay in a constant state of alert — making it very difficult for a child to feel calm, safe and in control.

Understanding this can completely change how we support children.

In the Rhythmic Movement Training Level 2 course in Cape Town, we explore how gentle, rhythmic movements can help calm the nervous system and support emotional regulation.

If you work with children who experience emotional overwhelm, this knowledge can be incredibly valuable.

Are you working with children who are bright… but still struggle with focus, behaviour or emotional regulation?

Many professionals don’t realise that primitive reflexes may still be active in the nervous system - affecting learning, attention and emotional control.

This is often the missing piece behind challenges such as:
• ADHD
• Dyslexia
• Sensory processing difficulties
• Emotional overwhelm

In this upcoming Rhythmic Movement Training (RMTi) course in Cape Town, you will learn how gentle, rhythmic movements can help support brain development and integrate these reflexes naturally.

This practical, hands-on training will equip you with tools you can use immediately with children and adults.

✔ Ideal for therapists, teachers and parents
✔ Gentle, non-invasive approach
✔ Limited spaces available
