  • Your ability to move, learn, and interact with the world is dependent upon movement. Learn how your DNA actually determines the sequence of movement patterns we learn, how these patterns affect our brain function and their connection to learning and developmental delays.
    Mary Mollway is a learning, development, and health coach. As the owner of her company BrainWorks, she provides movement-based approaches that may improve cognitive development, sensory integration, and motor coordination through a specialized approach called primitive reflex integration. She works across the lifespan and frequently works with clients with autism, ADD, cerebral palsy, traumatic brain injury, stroke, and PTSD.
    She has been a public school teacher for twenty years, specializing in reading instruction and is an adjunct professor in a teacher education program for an online university. She is deeply involved in the community and currently serves as an appointed Commissioner on the Parks and Recreation Commission for the City of Murrieta.

    Ok, this talk just made me realize why I rock myself or clench my fists from time to time (usually when I'm stressed), even though I don't have autism. And most importantly, it gave me a clue on how to solve it.
    Amazing talk & style. Loved it.

    Mary Mollway is currently my Grade 7 English Language Arts teacher. She is also working on her Doctorate Degree. I can happily say that she has an amazing influence on my peers and I in the classroom. I know it is odd to say, but I am very proud of her. A student being proud of her teacher is an oddity, but it is true. We are proud of each other and we are both striving forward. I am very proud to say that Mary Mollway is my Grade 7 English teacher.

    Hi Mary,
    I'm very interested in learning more about how educators can use specific movements in early years classrooms to support cognitive development. How can I learn more?

      There are research papers on line relative to how exercise increase the learning capacity of students.

    I'm thinking along the lines of baby massage and baby yoga to help these patterns to develop further. Am I on the wrong path?

      Baby yoga has some similarities to the work we do. However, there are very specific movement patterns that are utilized to promote integration of primitive reflex patterns. It depends on the modality you choose, but my two go-to's are MNRI and Rhythmic Movement Training. masgutovamethod.com/about-the-method/the-mnri-method-approach-programs ; rhythmicmovement.org/

      Emily, I'm sorry you didn't find it entertaining. However, this was an academic talk with a specific audience in mind. My purpose was to inform, not to entertain. I appreciate your feedback.

      "I found this boring," is a bit more precise. (Also, less blatantly rude)
      I, for one, found this to be profoundly inspirational! Brilliant work, Mary.
