A Letter from Your Instructor

Hi there,

I'm so glad you've found your way here.

If you've ever watched a child light up just from being outside—running barefoot, jumping in puddles, building with sticks—you already know: this is where the real growth happens.

That's exactly why I started leading outdoor movement sessions.

I wanted to help kids fall in love with moving. I wanted to support families in building healthier routines. And I wanted to create a space where joy, connection, and development could happen all at once.

What started as a handful of playful park sessions turned into something so much bigger: Children regulating better. Caregivers breathing easier. Families connecting with each other for long-lasting friendships.

And holistic therapists like me feeling reinspired, reconnected, and energized by what we do.

I created this training because I know I'm not the only one craving freedom, creativity, and impact. I've poured everything I've learned into this program — so you can skip the trial-and-error and confidently create something of your own.

Whether you're looking to start a full program or just sprinkle more outdoor play into your practice, you'll find the tools, support, and inspiration to make it happen here.

You don't need to be a pediatric specialist. You just need the desire to help kids move, play, and thrive. And a willingness to get a little muddy along the way. 😉

I can't wait to walk this path with you — and cheer you on as you build something amazing of your own.

Let's take it outside. 🌿
