Parent-child dynamics can be extremely potent and can organize a child's heart in ways that remain pertinent throughout the rest of their lives. By supporting both parents and children to fully engage with one another, a readiness to respond and availability to the relationship can emerge. Children who come to Contakids® classes love having the space to move their bodies freely, to run, to fall, and to fly, but even more importantly, they are deeply relieved to spend time with a parent who is making an effort to attune to them and their experience in a moment-to-moment way. These classes include a lot of sincere and joyful verbal and non-verbal communication between parents and their children, but also provide a non-judgemental and safe space for children to move with other children, and for parents to be witnessed by other parents in their challenges and successes in child-rearing.
