Sportlich bleiben!

The martial arts - but also other sports with a similar teaching concept, e. g. dancing, gymnastics, athletics - improve the auditory, visual, tactile/haptic and spatial perception of children and adolescents by use of special exercises. Concentration spans expand, achievements can be felt again and learning disorders such as dyslexia or dyscalculia decrease. Especially students who are displaying problems in their academic performance and social behavior due to perceptual or partial performance disorders, AD(H)D or autism benefit from (combat) sport.

Illustrated group exercises for physical education and individual exercises at home make this book a practical tool, which also explains why affected people behave how they behave. In addition to useful addresses of various contact points, the former kickboxing world champion Andrea Schnell reports in an interview how she - a dyslexic herself - became successful as a martial artist.
