Toddler - Numbered Peg Boards

Look at that focus! The Numbered Peg Boards help toddlers develop fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination as they grasp and place the pegs into the holes. The numbered pegs introduce early math concepts, such as one-to-one correspondence, counting, and number recognition. Additionally, independence and self-confidence are fostered as students complete this work on their own, all while promoting cognitive and physical development.

We walked through VERY tall grass to get to Lake Bishop, so that we could experience in reality that a lake was a body of water surrounded by land on all sides. That it was muddy and we could step into it and feel the already very cold water only added to the fun!

Education is evolving to prioritize adaptability, creativity, and leadership through hands-on, real-world experiences. By tackling practical challenges, students develop problem-solving, critical thinking, and resilience. Studies from Harvard and McKinsey show experiential learning fosters collaboration, communication, and innovation—skills vital in an automated workforce. While scalability remains a challenge, initiatives like mentorship programs and organizations such as the Medix Foundation are making impactful learning more accessible.

Harnessing Experiential Education to Enhance Adaptability and Problem-Solving Skills | Vince Kiel

In today’s fast-changing world, education is evolving to focus on adaptability, creativity, and leadership, moving beyond mere knowledge retention. Experiential learning, which immerses students in hands-on, real-world experiences, is at the forefront of this shift. It fosters personal growth and equips learners with the skills needed to navigate modern complexities.

Cultivating Adaptability Through Real-World Challenges Experiential learning stands out by placing students at the center of their education. Unlike passive methods, it engages learners in real-world challenges through simulations, internships, or projects, enhancing problem-solving, critical thinking, and adaptability. Research shows that immersive, problem-based environments help students thrive under pressure and view setbacks as opportunities for growth.

Building Resilience and Problem-Solving Acumen Resilience is best developed through hands-on experiences that expose students to real-world obstacles. By tackling genuine challenges, learners innovate, adapt, and build confidence. Studies from Harvard and McKinsey highlight that active learning boosts comprehension, problem-solving, and resilience—skills increasingly vital in an automated world.

Enhancing Collaboration and Communication Skills As automation rises, demand for social skills like teamwork and leadership is growing. Experiential learning naturally cultivates these skills by fostering meaningful interactions and effective communication. Team-based experiences improve collaboration and problem-solving, preparing students for modern work environments.

“In a world driven by technology, the ability to communicate effectively online and offline is foundational. Experiential education doesn’t just teach youth to solve problems; it teaches them to articulate ideas, navigate diverse perspectives, and foster genuine dialogue. These are the skills that transform capable individuals into true leaders.” – Vince Kiel

Challenges and Opportunities for Educators Mentorship and apprenticeship models are gaining traction but face scalability challenges. Over 56% of American workers lack mentors, particularly in trades and technical fields. However, organizations like the Medix Foundation leverage extensive networks to provide scalable, hands-on learning opportunities across various industries.

Conclusion: Embracing a Future of Learning Experiential learning is transforming education by prioritizing real-world engagement, critical thinking, and resilience. It prepares students with essential skills and fosters a mindset of continuous growth, ensuring they thrive in an ever-changing world.

Toddler - Transferring with Tongs

Transferring from one vessel to another is a valuable tenant in the Practical Life curriculum. Transferring refines a student's hand-eye coordination, concentration, and fine motor skills while calling to their sensitive period for order. Using tongs is great preparation for writing and other skills that require fine motor control, helping to develop the hand muscles necessary for successful manipulation of writing implements. As they transfer back and forth, the repetition allows them to feel a sense of accomplishment and mastery.

Butoh sensory engagement with visual art and live music

Butoh-Fu

A unique method of notation for Butoh Choreography

One of the key elements of Butoh-Fu is the Imaginative Space

Words are used to conjure and manage the physical and emotional landscape of a performance

Hijikata‘s visual method of using paintings as sources allow dancers to draw from rich visual context bridging two dimensional art with the dynamic nature Butoh

Rei Rei (Rachael K) 2024 Butoh performance was inspired by Kelsey Ashe screen prints. When Kelsey invited Rei Rei to bring her Butoh group to perform for opening night she was thrilled!

Instead of hiring and training Butoh performers it felt more intuitive for Rei Rei to invite Kelsey to perform Butoh as a wellness part to the preparation pre show and a way to culminate all the hard work into a cathartic movement installation performed in front of an epic screen prints on scrolls

The costume designer Molly - Rei Rei calls her Hope - was also invited to perform Butoh. As a trio they explored and collaborated on the beach - a favourite site for sensory experiences.

Sensory engagement

The practice emphasises the need to heighten bodily awareness and emotional sensitivity allowing performers to engage deeply with the themes presented in the choreography.

Our somatosensory system is a huge network of nerve endings. This controls how we perceive sensations such as touch.

Our urban busy modern lives mean we are subject to excessive sensory input.

By dancing the imagery in Butoh we are enveloping ourselves in unconscious neural patterns that can be tapped into with words that relate to our sense of touch and awaken the memory of our sensations

This awakening can offer profound emotional and psychological transformations. These site specific somatic butoh experiences can lead to increased trust, confidence, and feelings of wellness- enhancing body awareness, which is linked to better Emotional regulation resilience and management of pain.

Love Rei Rei
