Study Details

Brain gym is a series of exercises developed to enhance learning by improving cognitive function and fostering a stronger mind-body connection. It uses physical and mental techniques to stimulate both hemispheres of the brain. This approach is rooted in kinesiology and applied neuroscience, fields that study the relationship between bodily movements and brain activity.
