If you only ever book the class, you take away the roaming that calms them down. If you only ever send them out to roam, they miss the taking turns and negotiating that a coached session drills. Break time at school is doing more work than it looks like from outside. When money or time forces a choice, ask which of the two your child is shorter of right now.
How He has spread the Earth out for you (Quran 71:19). Space was given first, before anything was asked to be done in it.

وَٱللَّهُ جَعَلَ لَكُمُ ٱلۡأَرۡضَ بِسَاطࣰ ا

Strength of evidence: one line of research. A single study, or a theoretical account.
The two settings train different things, so neither one covers what the other does.
Tai chi, qigong, karate, whatever is running near you at a time you can make. Choose on availability, cost and what you actually like, because those decide whether you keep going.
Put music on. A faster tempo pulls your pace up without you deciding to, and the same effort feels lighter when there is something to listen to.
For a child having a hard time, one adult who plainly thinks well of them makes more difference than almost anything else. A coach or a teacher can be that person.
