Eve Kodiak spacer Eve Kodiak: "We did not know what we were going to play. There was no moment when David and I were not intensely listening to the music being created between us — because we began with no chord changes, no melodies, no assumptions, nothing except our commitment to play this moment together."

Improvisations CD spacer David Darling: "When I play with a pianist, they sometimes end up going someplace I just can't go. With Eve, that never happened. After the first day, we took a drive and listened to what we had recorded, and every take seemed perfect. It was a miracle."

Meditations CD

Meditations CD spacer "What a terrific collection of music!"
              Naomi Arenberg, host, Folk On WGBH,
              WBGH Radio, Boston

"The music is lovely and haunting, both new and familiar - a re-invention of memory, or, as in a labyrinth, a transformation of memory."
              Jane Eklund, Monadnock Ledger-Transcript,
              Peterborough, NH

"Luminous playing, with a sound that creates itself as it moves. This is miles beyond technical mastery."
              Marka Knight, principal artist,
              Magic Circle Opera Repertory Ensemble
              New York City

"This will get a lot of play. It's perfect store music."
              Barbara Medlyn, co-owner, The Quartz Source,
              Milford, NH

RAPPIN' ON THE REFLEXES!

Click to Order!

"What a masterpiece! It makes the reflexes so easy to work with . . . this is just what teachers need!"
              Carla Hannaford, PhD.
              author of Smart Moves: Why Learning is Not All In
              Your Head

"My friend loaned me her copy for the school year, and I couldn't bear to give it up without ordering my own. My fidgety students get so focused and calm and happy moving through the "Turtle Shell!" I've even offered it to the classroom teachers!"
              Susan Mincey
              Elementary School Music Teacher

"A wonderful contribution to the field of child development."
              Gail Dennison
              co-creator of Brain Gym®

"The most effective integration tool I have encountered in my thirty years of working with children."
              Ann Szaur, M.Ed., CTN (Certified Traditional Naturopath)

Sensory Integration in a song?

Infant Reflexes in a rap?

Fine Motor Coordination in a finger game?

While kids move and sing along with Rappin' on the Reflexes, they practice developmental movements that increase their physical, emotional, social, and academic well-being.

But don't mention that to the kids. They're just having fun.

Rappin' on the Reflexes has been created for easy use by teachers, parents, practioners, and anyone else who works with children. It can be used informally at home, as part of an office visit, or as school curriculum for increasing academic performance, easing developmental issues, and enhancing social interaction.

Rappin' on the Reflexes is for all ages. Some songs will appeal most to young children. Others (especially the raps) can move right on into high school and beyond.

Click Here to Preview CD

What do you get when you open the box?

The CD contains 23 songs, raps, and movement narrations. These progess in an evolutionary series, beginning with the primal movement of breathing, and on to spinal, up and down, same-sided and cross-lateral movements. The songs and raps can also be done individually.

Each chapter in the spiral-bound guide corresponds with a CD track, exploring the material in short sections entitled:
  • Development. Description of each reflex, with anecdotes.
  • Image. Relating reflexes to the stories behind each song and movement game.
  • Helps. Specific issues the songs address. E.g.: "gross and fine motor coordination, especially handwriting". Or "bedwetting, self-comforting, and confidence".
  • Noticing. Ways to feel the reflex movement in your body.
  • Activity. Specific directions for the movement game.
  • Teaching Tips. Variations and ideas for individual and classroom use.
  • Photos. Children and adults demonstrating the movements.
  • CD Track. The corresponding song or rap. Many of the songs include children's voices.
From ADHD to Vision Issues, consult the Index of Conditions and find the right song, rap, and movement games for you!
