TSMT® II – Group-Based Planned Sensorimotor Training

TSMT® II – Group-Based Planned Sensorimotor Training

Who is TSMT® II Recommended For?

Group-Based Planned Sensorimotor Training (TSMT® II) is recommended for children aged 18 months to 12 yearswho exhibit one or more of the following challenges:

Speech and Motor Development

  • Delayed or impaired speech development
  • Motor development delays, coordination difficulties

Attention and Concentration Issues

  • Short-term memory and working memory deficits
  • Difficulty maintaining multi-channel attention
  • Challenges in remembering task sequences
  • Struggles with independent work completion

Learning Difficulties

  • Learning-related disorders (dyscalculia, dyslexia, dysgraphia)
  • Poor spatial awareness
  • Difficulty distinguishing left from right
  • Weak synchronization functions

Behavioral Challenges

  • Anxiety, low self-confidence
  • Weak self-regulation, mild hyperactivity
  • Difficulty cooperating in social situations

Sensory Processing Disorders (SPD)

  • Issues with sensory integration and regulation

Who is Eligible for Group-Based TSMT® Therapy?

Children participating in the Longitudinal Complex Assessment who achieve 50-75% in Nervous System and Motor Maturity but score below 75% in the Cognitive Attention area are recommended for group-based therapy.

It is essential that children in this program are cooperative and capable of working independently or with minimal support in groups of 4-8 participants.

What Results Can Be Expected?

TSMT® II is particularly beneficial for children who:

  • Struggle with motor coordination
  • Show signs of hyperactivity
  • Are not yet school-ready
  • Need focused attention development

How Does the Therapy Work?

The therapy takes place in a gymnasium setting, filled with stimulating sensory input, usually without parental presence. Exceptions include infant groups and children with severe developmental delays who can still integrate into a group.

Each training group consists of 4-8 children with similar skill levels, ensuring a tailored and effective learning experience.

Exercises are conducted in a pre-arranged room with structured training elements, targeting:

  • Gross motor skill refinement
  • Improved attention control
  • Sensorimotor synchronization
  • Enhanced praxis (motor planning)
  • Body schema development
  • Spatial orientation
  • Lateralization and dominance development
  • Serial processing and rhythm skills
  • Multi-channel attention improvement
  • Integration of primitive/infantile reflex profiles

These skills form the foundation for successful school adaptation, helping children become more confident and independent learners.
