What is T.A.G.?

The Academic Gym (T.A.G.) is whole-body, multisensory learning system that blends athletic and academic skills to help kids prevent or overcome reading difficulties and disabilities such as dyslexia.

At The Academic Gym (T.A.G.) we use the body to stimulate, train, and strengthen the brain. We use athletic body conditioning skills to caffeinate or stimulate the brain for learning. Then we use the rhythmic repetitions of athletic skills to train the brain for rapid recognition in reading skills. Next, we use athletic body conditioning skills to build strong neurological connections in the brain. And finally, we review, build, and strengthen these connections with a Daily D.I.E.T. (daily intensive enrichment training). This combination of exciting, rhythmic, athletic and academic skills creates strong, emotional neurological connections while reinforcing and establishing new pathways for learning.
