Regulation has become a powerful buzzword guiding behavioural goals and interventions established by clinicians and educators across the world. But what does “regulation” truly mean? This in-person two-day workshop weaves together concepts from Polyvagal Theory, interoceptive processing and emotional integration. Combining theory with practical video demos, labs and problem-solving conversations will support the carry-over from theory into day-to-day application of strategies towards well-being and function. This workshop is relevant to all professionals supporting human beings (especially individuals living with neurodiversity and trauma) who are keen to understand their own regulation and co-regulation literally from the inside-out.

This is a hybrid course designed to teach the theory and hands-on NDT principles as they apply to children with ASD. Current motor control literature and neurobiological research each increasingly highlight the prevalence of motor systems impairments as part of the ASD diagnosis. Despite this, movement challenges are the functional limitations are most often neglected in the treatment of children with ASD. Neuro-Developmental Treatment (NDT) is a frame of reference that guides clinicians in the analysis and treatment of posture and movement. This cutting-edge workshop applies NDT principals, assessment, and intervention in treating the movement challenges of children on the spectrum. Comparing and contrasting between ASD compensatory motor patterns and typical motor development will be emphasized, offering a foundation for the facilitation of new motor learning. This full course consists of 12 hours of online training as a pre-requisite, and 2 days in Hong Kong with in-person lecture, hands-on labs, group discussions and live treatment demonstrations.
