An Extension of Little Giant Steps
All Stars
All Stars
The Brain Sprints’ All Stars program begins with an in-person screening at our Brain Sprints Center. The screening is designed to pinpoint challenges and provide the foundational level of NeuroDevelopmental (ND) brain building activities. These Neurodevelopmental activities, implemented by one of our on-site Brain Coaches, greatly reduce or often eliminate the root causes of brain inefficiencies over time. The All-Stars system addresses issues with gross motor, fine motor, language, auditory and visual function as well as sensory integration, behavioral and academic concerns on a foundational level.
Who should participate in an All-Stars Program?
ND is effective for everyone from birth to 99 years of age. The All-Stars System is an in-center option for parents that want professional implementation of program activities including math and reading instruction. This System has proven successful for individuals with these challenges:
- Children with undetermined or unlabeled learning struggles
- Children who have been placed in foster care, adopted or traumatized
Children who have been labeled:
- Accelerated or Gifted
- ADD/ADHD
- Auditory Processing Disorder
- Dyslexia
- Dyscalculia
- Learning Disabled
- Sensory Processing Disorder
- Typically Developing
- And more…

How Does it Work?
The All-Stars program is a two-hour a day afternoon developmental and academic enhancement program with a Brain Sprints professional. The foundational, NeuroDevelopmental program created from the screening is implemented by trained Brain Coaches in our Brain Sprints Center. Neurological connections are established and strengthened by adjusting the set of unique ND activities. This builds on the foundation of the previous cycle.
Each two-hour coaching session includes:
- One hour with the Movement Coach doing brain organizing and stimulating activities, including those that increase math facts proficiency
- Hour two is spent with an Academic Coach (2:1 student/teacher ratio) working on reading and math as well as individualized activities
The first year consists of three 4-month cycles beginning with a ND Screening and continuing with daily instruction at the Brain Sprints Center. Academic testing to track progress and parent updates end each cycle.
A full evaluation may be recommended during the year instead of a ND Screening based on the needs of the child and the goals of the family.

Basis for Success
Brain Sprints’ Coaches believe that all future abilities are determined by what is presented to the individual’s brain, not what a label attempts to dictate. The focus of the All-Stars system is to further brain pathway development by addressing the root causes of symptoms associated with labels or learning struggles. The results - accelerated functional and academic abilities!
All All-Stars Systems address foundational brain function in 6 areas:
- gross motor
- fine motor
- language
- auditory
- visual
- tactility
If an evaluation is included, the All Stars System can also address concerns with behavioral, metabolic and academic challenges through the six areas of developmental function on 9 levels of brain development.
How to Get Started:
1. Screening: Schedule a screening if you have not already.
2. Schedule your coaching hours/Submit Payment: Contact the office to choose from the available coaching hours. Refer to the Brain Sprints’ calendar for all scheduled days for service at the center. Coaching takes place 46 weeks of the year with designated weeks for vacation and breaks.
3.
Continued All Stars services: A screening or in-person evaluation starts each 4-month cycle. Most children use the Brain Sprints program for 18-24 months. Every 4 months, your individual situation will be assessed and the best recommendation for moving forward will be presented.
