Regulating Through Rhythm: The Power of Physical Literacy with Janna Tait


Listen Later

In this episode of The Podclass, we're diving into the fascinating world of rhythm, regulation, and physical literacy with Janna Tait, Physical Literacy Education Coordinator for Yukon schools.

Janna takes us on a journey through how rhythm isn’t just about music or movement—it’s a powerful tool for learning and regulation. She explains how rhythmic activities help regulate emotions, improve focus, and boost learning in both kids and adults.

We explore how physical literacy goes beyond just being active—it’s about building confidence in movement, connecting with others, and fostering a deeper understanding of our bodies.
