Learn how the brain and body support focus, motivation, and self-regulation in this interactive 6-session workshop.
About this Event

Focus, motivation, and self-regulation can be challenging at any age—but they don’t have to be. In this engaging six-session series, participants will learn how to better understand and harness their own focus and motivation by exploring how the brain and body work together to manage emotions, goals, interactions, and decision-making.

Through interactive activities, reflection, and practical strategies, participants will explore who they are from the inside out while building skills that support growth, confidence, and personal success. Each session builds on the last, helping attendees develop meaningful tools they can use in everyday life.

Important Notes:

  • This is a small-group, interactive series designed for ages 6 and up
  • Participants are asked to commit to all six sessions, as each session builds on previous learning (Class dates are April 9, April 16, April 23, April 30, May 7, May 24)
  • Parents are welcome and encouraged to attend alongside their child

Perfect for families looking to build stronger focus, motivation, and self-regulation skills together in a supportive and engaging environment.


Instructor Bio:
Annie Terrell is an educator, coach, and artist focused on easing the struggles inherent in being human. She uses creative practices, neuroscience, movement, breath, and reflective inquiry to help individuals of all ages and backgrounds know themselves more deeply, overcome blocks, and learn to replace shame, judgement, and avoidance with compassion, curiosity, and action.


Annie is empathetic, nonjudgmental, an incredible question-asker, and always honors your pace. You’ll never be pushed beyond your comfort—only gently invited toward your own freedom.” -client testimonial
