Adapted Spiral Praxis and Movement for the Bodymind Process


Listen Later

This episode I am thrilled to interview Yuji Oka of the Spiral Movement Center in Toronto where my son went for their MOVEMENT program weekly for many years up until the Pandemic. Yuji is the founder and a practitioner of Adapted Spiral Praxis which is based on the bodymind somatic process. It's a child-centered modality that deals with the internal experiences of children: their physical, emotional, and cognitive experience--not unlike DIRFloortime®, yet different. Yuji is here to talk about his work with the disability and special needs populations he serves.
