Children learn through movement.

Clinical research links movement education to positive impacts in all domains of a child's crucial developmental years - cognitive, social, emotional and physical.

Our experienced team works with preschools, kindergartens, parents and teachers to integrate activity and movement into the classroom. Research has shown that active movement at a young age encourages defined brain activity and enhanced interpersonal skills throughout life.

Movement Plus is dedicated to bringing movement into all areas of learning. We specialize in:

  • Teacher workshops
  • One-on-one partnering
  • Preschool and Kindergarten Consulting

What others are saying about Movement Plus

“If you educate or care for your children, you should take part in Martha’s seminars.  Not only is her seminar compelling and informative, but it is fun, energetic and interactive from start to finish.  I left feeling confident about the strategies she taught and could not wait to implement them in my class.”
