"Brain Gym® International is committed to the principle that moving with intention leads to optimal learning. Through our outstanding instructors and movement-based programs, we empower all ages to reclaim the joy of living. " Brain Gym is a registered trademark of Brain Gym® International/Educational Kinesiology Foundation, Ventura, CA. "Brain Gym was created in the 1980’s by Dr. Paul Dennison and Gail E. Dennison, who "were seeking more effective ways to help children and adults who had been identified as 'learning disabled.' They drew from a large body of research by developmental specialists who had been experimenting with using physical movement to enhance learning ability." They called their work Educational Kinesiology or Edu-K for short. Paul worked with chiropractor Richard Tyler, a friend of Arnold Schwarzenegger's and a proponent of "alternative chiropractic." For many people knowledgeable of chiropractic, this association is a red flag."
