.

a friends son is doing some DORE stuff, she has said there is a small improvement in his co-ordination etc. he has to do a couple of exercises each day i think.

thanks

anyone else had any experience of DORE/learning breakthrough etc?

he has only been doping it since easter btw.

Friends' ds is doing Dore and they have noticed an improvement but that could also be down to a number of factors (maturity, school and so on). The exercise programme is fairly regimented, requirinbg copoperation from the child, and cna be hard to fit . To my mind the unique benefits are not sufficiently proven to justify the cost (over £2k). You can get similar , if less stuctured, advice from an OT.

is there a limit to how many times i can bump my own message??

No experience sorry, but if you do a search for "Dore" in the search facility there are some old threads that might be helpful.

Can you say what it is specifically that you wish to know about the Dore program, I know quite a bit about it, but not sure what you want to know?

im looking for something that is likely to help lovely 8 yr old boy - low confidence/concentration, difficutly making friends, poor listening skills. school currently reviewing etc his progress, possibly dyslexia or similar. read about learning breakthrough on internet - seems cheaper version of dore? are either of htem any good etc

improving slowly - can I ask is he good at sports and co-ordination? Is he good at climbing and bike riding etc?
