The Rhythmerside Approach is a movement and music-based programme designed for children and young people (movement partners) with profound and multiple learning difficulties to enable a positive movement experience and sensory awareness. The programme includes various songs, focusing on movement of different body parts, and aims to facilitate movement, proprioceptive awareness and kinaesthetic learning through rhythm, touch and sensory stimulation.

In the Rhythmerside Approach, movement partners are exposed to developing their physical literacy and movement to music, helping to build muscle memory and enhancing both gross and fine motor control. Massage, stretches and positional changes are incorporated to loosen muscles, ease stiffness, improve body awareness, develop the proprioceptive sense and improve comfort and engagement for overall wellbeing.
