Motion & Benefits:

This side to side lateral motion engages the core while improving balance, muscle tone and posture. During movement the brain is able to perform optimally which translates into focused students, memory retention and increased concentration and attention span. 

Neuroscience:

The prefrontal cortex and the cerebellum are connected. The prefrotal cortex controls executive functions like decision making, proble solving, memory, language, emotions and attention. The cerebellum controls motor skills, agility and coordination. It also controls putting patterns into a sequence, like letters into words, words into sentences, and numbers in order. Activites that activate the cerebellum while performing challenging cognitive skills, strengthen areas int eh brain for foucs and attention.
