SAMURAI-PROGRAM
... for children at school up to grade 6
The Samurai-Program offers school children up to grade 6 easy to learn techniques to use at school as well as at home. By means of touch, exercises, and awareness training, the program
- promotes health
- age corresponding development
- as well as self-efficacy.
The children learn how to calm down before writing tests, how to relax the muscles of their backs and shoulders in a playful manner to better their posture and make it easier to sit and pay attention in class, or how to relax their hands when suffering from writer's cramp (which improves their style of writing along the way).

...for Minis at Kindergarden
The development of the perceptive and motor visual functions forms an essential part of the lives of children at kindergarten age. The Samurai-Programme is designed to address the needs of this age group especially, meeting then Mini's needs during this development phase. The Programme promotes e.g.:
- self-awareness
- concentration
- upright posture
- self-efficacy
the fun way - for children as well as for their teachers.
... for Seniors
Movement and touch contribute to our well-being. This is especially true for seniors - young at heart, less mobile, in the wheelchair, or in bed - their flexibility depends on regular movement and exercise. So, why not do it the fun way with the Samurai-Program: easy-going in groups or as a single session.
The program was originally developed for the work with children at school, however, upon their request, it was re-designed to meet the needs of seniors.
The Samurai-Program promotes
- mobilisation
- relaxation
- fall prevention
- as well as perception.
It helps to connect people the fun way.
