We are currently recruiting families of children with DCD/Dyspraxia from Australia, the UK and the USA for our mental health and physical activity intervention. Please share with any families you think may be interested. Thank you! @KWilmut @bypriscila facebook.com/share/v/12Ez2D…

New paper🚨 Exploring motor #imagery in relation to #sports, #music, & #dance ⚽🏌🏻‍♀️🎸🕺🏻 @ucdbodylab @UCDPsychology @UofTKPE sciencedirect.com/science/articl… Implicit motor imagery was influenced by experience in sports & music; explicit imagery may be more influenced by formal training
