At Grounded Motion Therapy, we help children reconnect with their natural ways of moving, playing, and regulating.
​
Through nature-based Exercise Physiology, we support the body and nervous system to build strength, confidence, and calm, from the ground up. Our sessions blend movement, sensory-rich nature play, and gentle regulation tools, to help children feel more connected to themselves and the world around them.​

Why Nature-based Movement?
It can help

Nervous System Regulation
Natural environments help the body and mind find calm through sensory balance, rhythm, and fresh air.


Emotional Regulation
Time in nature, combined with rhythmic movement, deep breathing, soothes the nervous system, reduces stress and helps children build self regulation skills and emotional resilience.
Strength & Coordination
Natural play and intentional movement develops postural control, balance, coordination and physical confidence through meaningful movement.

Sensory Integration
Nature play engages multiple senses (sight, smell, sound, touch) while also activating the vestibular and proprioceptive systems through movement. These experiences help children integrate sensory information more effectively, improving coordination, body awareness, and regulation.

Nurture Connection
with Nature

Hands-on experiences in nature nurture respect, curiosity, and care for the environment, which helps children develop a sense of responsibility, empathy, and belonging.
Confidence Building

Through nature based movement, children develop self-confidence, resilience, and a positive self-image as they explore and challenge themselves in natural surroundings.
Mindfulness & Creativity

Being outdoors sparks curiosity, imagination, and awareness of the present moment.
Shared exploration builds empathy, communication, and confidence in relating to others.
Social Connection

Outdoor spaces reduce overstimulation and in combination with purposeful sensory movement, children build attention, impulse control, and cognitive flexibility, essential foundations for learning.
