Loo Movement

Loo Movement A Physical Therapist-informed blend of Qigong, Yoga, and Pilates for restoring optimal alignment.

As a trained physical therapist for over 20 years, and a certified instructor of yoga, qigong, and Pilates, and trained in hypnotherapy and reiki, it goes without saying, the body has always been Valerie’s passion. She’s a continual explorer of movement, present-time awareness, and the unification of body and mind. Valerie is passionate about approaching the body holistically and is fascinated by the intersection of where science meets spirituality, east meets west, and problem-solving meets intuition.

🦶✨ Knee / Ankle / Foot Series starts this Saturday

If your knees, ankles, or feet feel sore after hiking, running, or regular workouts, it may be time for a system upgrade.

In this two-part Loo Movement workshop, we’ll focus on improving joint stability and alignment so you can move with more ease and confidence, from the ground up. You’ll learn carefully selected Counter-shapes alongside a deeper understanding of anatomy and biomechanics (aka the why behind the work).

✨ Part I: foundational concepts + Counter-shapes
✨ Part II: more personalized work for where you need strength and mobility

Workshops are where things really click. Students often progress faster and walk away with tools they can actually use at home. Think: Loo Movement grad school 🤓

🗓 Saturdays Jan 24 + Jan 31
⏰ 2–3:30pm
📍 Spots are limited

Thank you to everyone who joined us for our Winter Solstice movement + sound healing event! 🤍 Slowing down together felt like a true gift for our nervous systems.

I am deeply grateful to Laura for sharing her sound healing and to each of you who made space for slowing down. I look forward to offering more moments like this in the future.
