Seminar: Dr. Frank Belgau on Neural Connections and Learning Breakthrough

This video shows Dr. Frank Belgau relating the connection between neural network efficiency and resolution of neurons being mathematically connected to the number of neurons involved in the difficulty of a task. This concept is at the core of Learning Breakthrough’s “variable difficulty balance platform” which Dr. Belgau credits as his most important single contribution to the world of learning treatments. It is the main reason that Learning Breakthrough has succeeded where other treatments have not. Don’t get confused that the exercises of imitators is what makes a program like this work. Its the balance challenge, delivered over time and in a precise manner that generates the sought after neuroplasticity gains.

Vision Therapy in the New York Times Magazine – March 10, 2010

If you’re the parent of a child who’s having trouble learning or behaving in school, you quickly find yourself confronted with a series of difficult choices. You can do nothing — and watch your child flounder while teachers register their disapproval. Or you can get help, which generally means, first, an expensive and time-consuming evaluation, [...]

Neural Transmission – Brain Processing Efficiency With Learning Breakthrough

Seminar descriptions of neurophysiology work of William Calvin and the multiplicity effect of neural entrainment. This video shows seminar descriptions of the neurophysiology work of William Calvin and the multiplicity effect of neural entrainment. The more difficult a task, the more neurons are enrolled to perform it at higher and higher levels of efficiency. Calvin [...]

Pendulum Ball & Perceptual Motor Skills with Balance Board

How to adjust the distance between the Belgau Balance Board and the arc of the pendulum ball is a common question for those starting to use the program. The following answer to an email question from a new client should be helpful. “The pendulum ball should swing out and back to ABOUT the belly button [...]
