World of Embodiology
The World of Embodiology® was introduced to the youth at the Alonzo "Babe" James Community Center’s, Summer Camp Program, on Monday, July 26th, in New Smyrna Beach. The World of Embodiology® is a national program of “Move and Play” which was taught to 35 school aged children that attend Center’s Summer program. The instructors of the program used a combination of movement, music, and sensory practice to help the students gain self-confidence, self-esteem, group interaction, and learning skills, which they can apply in their daily lives.
