Smithton, Tasmania, 2026 Workshop - Move to Regulate: The Critical Link Between Motor Skill Development and Self-Regulation

Join us for this engaging 5-hour workshop designed to equip educators, teachers, and support staff with practical, actionable strategies to improve self-regulation in children through fundamental motor skill, reflex integration, and self-regulation development.

This workshop explains the important link between a child's physical body and their emotional/social/physical readiness to learn and engage in a classroom setting.

You will leave with a clear understanding of how to integrate core strength, reflex integration, fine motor coordination, impulse control, self-regulation, and spatial awareness activities into your daily routine to build the neural pathways necessary for attention, focus and learning.

What You Will Learn:

• The Critical Link: Understand the research connecting sensory-motor development, reflex integration, and core strength to a child's attention, focus, and self-regulation.

• Practical Strategies: Learn ready-to-use, play-based activities and environmental tweaks that instantly support fine motor, impulse control, and reflex integration.

• Observation & Assessment: Gain tools to quickly identify underlying motor and reflex challenges and how this impacts their learning and behaviour.
