LOO MOVEMENT INCORPORATES…

  • Alignment Coaching

    Skeletal misalignment leads to stress on your joints. When you learn to sense optimal alignment, you can protect your joints from excessive wear and tear, which leads to smoother movement, less pain, as well as greater strength and flexibility.

  • Yoga

    Yoga is a physical, mental, and spiritual practice that originated in India. Regular practice improves flexibility, balance, and strength, as well as helping to reduce stress and anxiety.

  • Qigong

    Qigong is a Traditional Chinese Medicine modality that combines gentle, flowing movements with mindful presence. This harmonizing practice enhances the circulation of Qi energy, promoting a deeper unification of body and mind.

  • Pilates

    Joseph Pilates developed specialized equipment and exercises to teach movement originating from the core. As the body adopts this more efficient approach, individuals often experience improved posture and joint stability.

  • Meditation

    Meditation is a practice in mental training to access heightened awareness and inner calm. This process can lead to a more profound connection to the body’s sensations.

  • Intuitive Bodywork

    Our bodies respond well to touch, whether it’s a gentle manual cue, a soft-tissue release, or an alignment correction. Valerie is trained in various hands-on therapies, including craniosacral therapy, myofascial release, and reiki energy work.

LOO MOVEMENT® IS WHERE SCIENCE MEETS INTUITION

Here’s what our clients are saying…

  • "Valerie is a sorceress who has improved my quality of life dramatically. Rather than a rigid routine, she taught me how to strategically select "a la carte" from my menu of mobility, strength, and core Counter-shapes. Today, my shoulder pain is long gone and my mobility is much better. I have scoliosis, and now when I look in the mirror, my shoulders are even for the first time in 30 years. Most importantly, I feel empowered to know how to respond to small issues that may come up. It feels good to be so much stronger and to be able to be active again!"

    -Jane Y., 1:1 Instruction

  • "Core & Mobility is my Sunday church - self-care for the body and soul on a weekly basis! It's fundamentally transforming my aging body into one that’s more stable, mobile and resilient. The philosophy is a most-welcomed opposition to “no pain no gain", bringing in deeper consciousness, more relaxation, and support for my body that wants to stretch, reach, and gain durability. Valerie's instructions are clear, calming and my body feels nourished after an hour! Loo Movement truly honors my body."

    - Shiree T., Core & Mobility, Quartet Class

  • “In Valerie’s Reformer Pilates class, I can safely build strength, improve my alignment, and have a more attuned relationship with my body. In just a couple of months, I have noticed big changes: I experience hip and knee pain much less frequently, and my body feels stronger, more capable, and balanced!”

    -Randy G., Reformer Pilates

  • “Valerie has led me on a journey to better alignment, posture, and exercise form. She has given me specific, updated alignment corrections and new Counter-shapes to continue to evolve and progress my practice. I've redefined my relationship with my body and I'm grateful for her spot-on intuition. She's helped me improve my health, invest in myself, and prevent future injuries. Thank you, Valerie!"

    - Cameron N., 1:1 Instruction

  • “I stand up straighter after working with Valerie! I like to be active and I was looking for a teacher who would help me address my issues proactively. She taught me Counter-shapes to open my chest, strengthen my upper back, and help my spine and shoulders be more flexible. Now I'm more relaxed and can move more naturally without being afraid something is going to hurt. I always feel better after class, plus I know that if I need more personal attention, I can get it in my 1:1 sessions. Loo Movement is awesome and Valerie is my go-to wellness coach!”

    -Sharon L., Quartet class, 1:1 Instruction
