Strike a Hero Pose for Super Powers!

Did you ever just strike a pose and suddenly feel more confident?

Strike a Hero Pose for Super Powers: Help your students (and yourself) find a posture that will help them build confidence and become more productive!

The other day I was watching old re-runs of Grey's Anatomy, when one of the doctors was standing in a pose similar to this little cutie.

She took a strong stance: arms strong, chin up, strong chest, with a look of determination on her face. The doctor explained that there was a study showing that 5 minutes in this strong stance before a hard task, a person gains confidence and performs better. (I found a reference to this episode HERE.)

After I saw that episode, I had to find out if it were a real thing, and I found a couple of articles about it: You can check these out:
I read about the advantages to a person's confidence, job performance, relationships, and a positive mindset!

Well, now I can't wait to try it! But even more... I want to see how the children react to it! I can just imagine they'll be quite creative in their power poses! Plus, I'm thinking of all the times these power poses can be brought into the classroom! 

The first thing that comes to mind is testing... but my brain is racing with all sorts of other things: presentations, tough concepts, writing, science experiments, or even STEM projects!

Plus, teachers could use a little superpower posing as well. How about a little power posing before that observation?

How do you think a power pose would help in the classroom?
