Octaband 16-Leg Stretchy Movement Band

Designed by dance/movement therapist Donna Newman-Bluestein, the Octaband is a fun, interactive tool with nearly limitless group movement possibilities!

The stretchy material, bright colors, and innovative design stimulate self-expression, spontaneity, and awareness of others. The circle in the middle provides a focal point for the group as participants stretch an arm out from it, and return it to a relaxed state. The 5-1/2" hem allows those with a limited grasping ability to participate, making it an excellent therapeutic tool.
