RISE Student Sit/Stand Desk
The RISE Student Sit/Stand Desk is purposefully designed to support students from Elementary through High School, offering a healthy, active learning option that keeps the brain and body engaged. Engineered with proper ergonomics and silent movement, this desk empowers students to learn, focus, and move, all without disrupting the classroom environment.
Key Features
-
Supports Proper Posture & Movement
Height-adjustable design accommodates a wide range of grade levels, encouraging natural movement and upright alignment throughout the school day. -
Ships Fully Pre-Assembled
Ready to use right out of the box. No tools, no hassle. -
Silent, Non-Distracting Motion

Flat Tabletop Surface

Brain-Based Movement Design
Built on Action Based Learning principles, the RISE Desk is intentionally designed to activate Low Intensity Steady State Movement (LISS)—a level of movement proven to support focus, memory, and cognitive performance. Unlike high-exertion movement that can work against learning, LISS keeps the brain activated while supporting calm, sustained attention.

ABL manufactures classroom furniture designed to put the student’s brain into its most optimal learning state. All of our educational equipment has been created with neuroscience best practices in mind, which results in improved student performance, enhanced effectiveness of curricula, and children’s energy channeled toward learning.
ABL active learning and sensory equipment provides a non-distracting, silent way to allow children to move, fidget, wake up their brains and stay engaged and focused in the classroom. This makes it easy for schools to accommodate all learners and keep the focus on serving the needs of the whole child. Action Based Learning aligns with the CDC framework for addressing health in schools, The Whole School, Whole Community, Whole Child, or WSCC model.To learn more about the science behind movement and learning educational furniture, check out Action Based Learning Training Academy.
