Basic AT Procedures

Chair work, standing, crawling, walking, monkey, semi-supine, table work, whispered ah, lunge, hands on back of chair, and developmental movement serve as the framework for  learning about primary control, inhibition, direction, faulty sensory appreciation, and conscious control. The integration of these basic concepts will be deepened through individual hands-on work from the teachers. The students will be guided in applying the principles of awareness, inhibition, and direction in simple activities of movement, breath, speech, listening skills, observation, and interpersonal relationships.

Working on the self

Applying the principles of the AT to everyday life as a trainee and future teacher. This section includes regular semi-supine practice, as well as keeping an on-going journal/notes to chronicle any thoughts, sensations, feelings, that come about, class attendance and participation. The focus is on improving use of the self while in and out of the classroom.
