Dr. B, PT is a school-based Physical Therapist, working in NYC. She is a mother, hobby enthusiast, and the wife of Mr. M. Mr. M is a licensed Physical Education teacher. His entire career has consisted of getting children involved in the game. As a former NCAA Division I college athlete, he values the benefit of sports on and off the court.
As a result of the COVID -19 Pandemic in 2020, Dr. B & Mr. M were both forced to transition to remote learning. During that time they noticed two consistent challenges their students faced. Those challenges included staying engaged and having access to materials that supported physical activity in their smaller urban residences. While trying to find creative solutions for these challenges they began creating educational movement videos on YouTube. That quickly transitioned to creating a “patent pending”activity mat, that they could use remotely and eventually in-person. They both witnessed the tool transform their sessions and classes as they provided an individual space for physical activity. Additionally, their colleagues noted the fresh perspective and improved student engagement.
As educators who both understood the value of reinforcing academics with movement, the home based project for their children and students was birthed into a business, Movement Medley LLC.
Together the couple is constantly working towards their mission to promote education and movement, by providing online resources, educational tools, community events, and advocacy.
Check back soon to see their latest projects.
