Movement

Movement

One of the three pillars of Flexible seating is movement. It is a known fact that everyone needs to move, especially children. Flexible seating allows all students to do so, while learning and doing what is expected of them. Students can wobble, rock, bounce, lean, or stand, all which increases their mental and physical strength. By being able to move, students' minds are more alert and focused, which, in the end, has a direct correlation with their success.

When students can move around while learning, a more active, engaged, enthusiastic, and relaxed classroom environment is created. Studies have also shown that movement while learning allows for better academic performance and improved behaviour over time. It is clear that flexible seating helps to make learning fun!
