A Hands-On, Experiential Learning Session for Therapists
⏰ Duration: 2.5 hours
🖥️ Format: Live, interactive Zoom session (cameras on!)
Who is it for?
Therapists who have completed at least three days of SI Workshop training or ASI Module 1, looking for practical, evidence-based sensory integration strategies that are appropriate for adolescents and adults.
It is also suitable for therapists who have trained in a paediatric-focused programme and are looking for ideas for enhancing sensory integration beyond childhood.
Workshop Overview
This experiential, movement-based workshop aligns with fidelity to Ayres Sensory Integration (ASI), integrating assessment-driven, co-produced interventions that are playful, engaging, and meaningful. Using therapy balls and pool noodles, we will explore bilateral integration, sequencing, and social participation activities that address sensory-motor challenges in a way that supports neuroplasticity and functional participation.
Aligning with ASI principles, we will use assessment information, including sensory grids, to ensure activities match each person’s sensory motor profile.
Explore playful yet purposeful sensory-motor activities designed to meet just-right challenge levels.
Understand relational participation, recognising that co-regulation and shared rhythmic experiences create the conditions for engagement and success.
Apply neuroscience-informed principles to support sensory modulation, praxis, and adaptive responses.
Why This Approach?
Fidelity to ASI principles
This session is grounded in assessment and co-production, ensuring that sensory-motor activities are tailored to individual needs rather than generic approaches.
Activities follow the Just-Right Challenge, promoting adaptive responses and neuroplasticity.
A meaningful approach for adolescents and adults
Many SI-informed approaches are child-focused, yet older individuals benefit from SI principles when activities are developmentally appropriate.
This workshop provides engaging, non-stigmatising, and accessible strategies that support participation, self-regulation, and motor skills.
Embedding occupational justice and inclusive participation
Sensory integration is about more than equipment; it’s about creating meaningful and engaging opportunities for participation.
Movement, rhythm, and group-based sensory experiences are inherently inclusive and support self-regulation, relational engagement, and social participation.
What to Bring:
A therapy ball (exercise ball, yoga ball, or peanut ball)
Pool noodles (or similar lightweight objects for drumming)
Your participation & playful spirit!
Why Join?
Gain practical, ASI-aligned sensory integration strategies for adolescents and adults.
Experience how rhythmic, sensory-rich activities support motor coordination, praxis, and self-regulation.
Explore integrating movement, rhythm, and social participation into 1:1 and group sessions.
Ensure interventions align with assessment findings, making sensory integration individualised, effective, and evidence-based.
