Official Expert Recommendation for Stoleto from Yanitsa Tabakova
Expert recommendation from Yanitsa Tabakova
Speech therapist with experience in assessing educational needs and working with children with special educational needs
"In my practice as a specialist who has worked both in a therapeutic environment and within the resource support system, I have participated in processes of assessing the individual needs of children and students, as well as in determining the necessary resources and conditions for their education.
This experience allows me to view every solution not only through its effect on the child but also through its applicability in a real educational environment.
In this context, 'Stoleto' dynamic chairs and active sitting accessories—including the balance chair, kneeling chair for dynamic sitting, and balance board—were observed and used.
The assessment of this type of equipment is not based solely on the child's individual behavior, but on its impact on the entire process: participation, organization of activities, and the possibility for effective inclusion in the learning environment."
Practical observations when using Stoleto
As a result of practical observation, it can be summarized that the use of dynamic sitting:
- supports the maintenance of a functional body position without the need for constant external correction;
- creates conditions for more effective participation in the learning process for children with various profiles of difficulty;
- reduces the need for additional behavioral interventions during class;
- facilitates the work of pedagogical specialists by stabilizing behavior in a classroom environment;
- supports the child's adaptation to the requirements of the school environment;
- helps build sustainable habits for posture and body organization in everyday conditions;
- allows for the use of movement as a functional element of learning rather than as a distracting factor.
Why this matters for schools, kindergartens, and support centers
From the perspective of assessing educational needs, this type of solution has particular value.
The reason is that they do not require additional resources to implement, yet they can improve the effectiveness of the already existing educational environment.
Practice shows that when the environment supports the child's body, it improves not only behavior but also the ability to absorb educational content.
Conclusion of the expert recommendation
Based on my professional experience in assessing and supporting children and students with special educational needs, I believe that 'Stoleto' dynamic chairs and active sitting accessories represent a justified and applicable solution that can be integrated into the existing educational system without the need for structural changes.
The equipment is suitable for use in schools, kindergartens, centers for personal development support, and other institutions working with children as part of practical measures to improve conditions for learning, concentration, and participation.
I believe that the implementation of such solutions has the potential to increase the effectiveness of the educational process on both an individual and a group level.
This recommendation is issued to serve before educational institutions, municipalities, and state bodies when making decisions related to providing a suitable and adapted educational environment.

Not just a chair, but a revolution in sitting!
