“The hands are particularly sensitive to perceiving and transmitting exceedingly sophisticated information to the brain.”
~ (Bensmaia et al, 2008)

“With the help of imaginative pictures, eurythmy movements and meaningful activity, the child’s will is encouraged to penetrate into the total movement system.”
~ Audrey E. McAllen

Mission Statement

“Awakening body and brain, Nourishing heart and soul
—Live your fullest potential”

Flowing River School’s mission is threefold:

1. To provide a healing educational environment that gives opportunities for challenged children equal to those provided to their typically-developing peers.
2. To provide resources to support those who care for these children.
3. To create programs that foster emotional intelligence, social integration, and functional independence.

Challenged children need healing through meaningful educational, recreational, therapeutic and social experiences.  Those who care for them need resources and support on both emotional and practical levels; this is provided through respite services, training, retreats, seminars and publications
