🤸‍♀️ Trampolines are MAGICAL 🪄
🦄 Play-based, child-led, neurodiversity-affirming Physical Therapy

07/17/2025

We’ve been spending our days in the new space bouncing, smiling, and staring up at the trees—and honestly, it’s been magic. ✨

But here’s the thing: it’s not just fun.
The therapeutic trampoline isn’t about burning energy or simply playing around (although we do plenty of that too 😉).

There’s real neuroscience behind it—and it all starts in the inner ear.
Specifically, a small but mighty organ called the saccule. It’s designed to sense up-and-down (aka vertical) movement—just like the kind you get when you’re bouncing or being gently bounced on a trampoline.

Stimulating this system creates powerful changes in the body and brain—affecting everything from regulation to communication to postural control.

But I get it. Not everyone talks about this stuff. So I decided to write a quick e-book all about it—short, sweet, and packed with insight on why vertical movement is a game-changer.

💥 Want to learn more about how the therapeutic trampoline works and why it’s so much more than it seems?

POV: Three Spider-Men showed up to class today 🕷️🕷️🕷️

And every single one of my athletes did something new.
✨ A new movement skill
✨ A new word or way to communicate
✨ A new way to regulate, connect, or show up in play

Their faces lit up. Their parents’ faces lit up. And mine did too.

Progress doesn’t always look the same—but it is happening.
In their own time, in their own way.
And that’s what makes this work so beautiful.

Today was one of those days where everything just clicked—and I’m grateful to witness it.

I wish I had stopped and documented the emotions I’ve felt this past week while setting up our new space . Because this week hasn’t just been about moving mats or adjusting trampolines—it’s been a flood of memories, a swirl of past and present, and honestly… I’ve teared up more than once.

I’ve been in a gym since before I can remember. My mom was a gymnastics coach and judge, and when I was 11, she decided to build a facility of her own—one that prioritized safety, learning, and the joy of movement. She wasn’t just teaching gymnastics; she was teaching movement education. I watched her create something rooted in values that still guide me today.

That gym became my second home. It’s where I grew up. Where I tried every job, where I made mistakes, and where I learned how to turn theory into practice. How to teach, how to listen, how to lead. How to scaffold a skill and run a business. How to make space for everyone and help them be and feel successful.

Setting up our new space this week brought all of that rushing back. From remembering how intimidating it is to unfold a trampoline to watching my own kids and Charlotte’s kids run through the gym like I used to… it feels like a full-circle moment.

I’m so proud to carry that foundation forward—into a space that continues the legacy of movement as medicine, as education, as empowerment. It’s not just about learning to jump or flip. It’s about building brains, bodies, confidence, and joy.

In my next post, I’ll share more about what this space will offer—but first, I just wanted to sit in this moment and say thank you.

I took this photo,today, just five days before we move our equipment into its beautiful new home at .
And I can’t stop smiling.

This move is more than a location change—it’s a dream come to life.
A space filled with open air, connection, nature, and possibility.
A space where kids (and adults!) can move freely, feel deeply, and be fully themselves.
A space where therapeutic movement meets the brain, and progress feels joyful.

🌿 Starting in July, I’ll have more availability for individual sessions on Thursdays and Fridays in this incredible new location—and I can’t wait to share it with you.

Saturday sessions at The Rock will still continue as usual, so you’ll have more flexibility to choose what works best for your family.

If you’d like to be the first to know about group classes and adult sessions, please message me to be added to our email newsletter.

This next season is going to be something really special.
Thank you for being a part of it. 💚

Some goodbyes are bittersweet — and this one is.

For the past few months, I’ve had the joy of sharing the gym on Saturday mornings with someone who truly got it.
Avery wasn’t part of my team — she was a preschool gymnastics coach working alongside us.
But from the moment she stepped into the gym, she saw my clients.

She learned their names. She celebrated their wins, no matter how big or small.
She waited for them to be ready.
She didn’t expect them to change — she changed how she showed up.

She noticed all the things I work toward every day at Balanced Creations — things that often go unseen:
✳️ Connection before compliance
✳️ Movement at the child’s pace
✳️ True inclusion, not just access
✳️ Joy, safety, belonging

She noticed — and she made the gym feel even more like home.

It’s bittersweet to say goodbye, not just because I’ll miss her, but because my clients will too.
She cheered them on exactly as they are, and she believed in their success — however it looked for them.

This is what Balanced Creations was built for.
And seeing someone reflect those values back to us — without ever needing it explained — was a gift I didn’t even know I needed.

Thank you, Avery.
You’ll always be part of our Saturdays in spirit. 💙

When I say Adaptive Trampoline changes lives — I mean it.

I’ve had kids come through our doors who were told they’d never have the chance to jump again because of an injury that led them to use a wheelchair.
Kids who were told they were too disabled to ever be part of a gymnastics class.
Kids who hadn’t yet spoken a word to their families — and a few weeks later, whispered “I love you” after a session.
Kids who were told they were too disruptive or couldn’t follow directions to be included.

They came in carrying those labels.
But here? They leave with new skills, new confidence, and the belief that they are already enough — just as they are.

Adaptive Trampoline isn’t about changing kids.
It’s about creating spaces where kids can move, play, and belong — no matter what challenges they face.

Because every child deserves the chance to soar. 💙

If you’re looking for a program that meets your child exactly where they are — with support, encouragement, and joy — I’d love to meet you.
