Hello, it’s me. Dr Marcia (she/they)! I am a doctor of physical therapy, yoga teacher, child of immigrants, rescue dog owner, & gender fluid spoonie that will shout Black Lives Matter in any & all spaces. You can find me promoting my book Movement for Every Body, lifting in my living room, napping on the couch, creating accessible content, or shopping for an unnecessary amount of pole dancewear.
I am the one person show behind Move with Marcia! Movement should be mindful, joyful, and help you feel better. If you find you lack motivation for movement, read that sentence again.
Move with Marcia is influenced from my personal practices as a strength athlete, dancer, & yoga lover. Thanks to this and educators such as Accessible Yoga Training and Fitness for All Bodies, I’ve learned how to embrace bodies of many ages and abilities.
MWM is also influenced by everything I’ve learned as a physical therapist. I graduated with my Doctorate in Physical Therapy in 2014. I’ve worked every where from NICU to nursing home, from orthopedic offices to cardiac clinics. With these experiences I realized that people do NOT have the tools needed to move better.
Folks are lost and the struggle for helpful information is REAL. My answer to that issue? Free resources, affordable options, accessible tools for all bodies. We don’t care about weight, skill, aesthetics, or any of that toxic fitness culture nonsense. We care about learning and falling in love with movement again. Movement is truly medicine.
EPI DASSIT.
