My students want to learn and do well. But for many, this doesn't come easy when their body can't sit still for even 20 minutes at a time and thus their minds can't focus. Flexible seating can help these children stay engaged, focused, and motivated as they learn. The slight instability the seats provide forces students to increase their focus in the classroom, along with their core strength and thus leads to improved performance. The Hokki Stool compresses slightly to allow continuous small movements forward, back, and side-to-side. This strengthens not only attention span but muscles as well. Physical movement both increases well-being and encourages the physical and intellectual maturing process. My "fidgety" students WANT to do well. They WANT to learn. They just need the tools to help their minds and body do that.
