What are these Coordination Patterns? What do they cause? Simply put, they are the mind−body, and movement–mind link*. They cause our core style, our way of doing things, from brushing our teeth, to talking, to creating great art. In fact, everything we do. We can see them in the way we move and our conversations.
THEY ORGANIZE OUR STYLE … THE WAY WE DO THINGS
pushing, pulling, quick, now, “Do it.”, visual, competitive, goal oriented, engages our power and strength
placing, holding still, sense of order, auditory, one step at a time, composed, correct, deals with details, formal, engages our thinking and integrity
rocking, swaying, bouncing, playful, interacting, feeling, people oriented, dreaming, team oriented, engages our imagination and cooperation
free flow movement, random, graceful, intuitive, kinesthetic, seeking essence, possibilities oriented, engages our ability to be connected and let go
*The four Coordination Patterns are the neuromuscular patterns (neuro = brain, the nervous system PLUS muscular = the muscles moving bones system) which 1) coordinate our movement, 2) coordinate the order in which our mental processes are functioning and 3) coordinate our movement with our mental functions.

“I find the Coordination Pattern Theory to be very accessible for all ages and learning situations. It immediately resonated with me because of its focus on the mind/body connection. My students enjoy exploring and using the Patterns for coordination, creativity and communication. The teachers I train find the information invaluable for understanding multiple leaning styles and planning lessons that engage these multiple styles. ―Anne Green Gilbert
