Founded by Valerie Baadh Garrett, the Movement Academy Project shares resources, programs, and consultations to support movement education of students and teachers in schools and to inspire healthy movement in the community.

Via private studio or Zoom sessions, live workshops, and published articles, books, and videos, Valerie invites you to experience and explore how movement can invite new ways to be at ease in the body and in relationship to others, at all stages of life.

Valerie is Waldorf teacher trainer and a somatic movement therapist in the movement field of Spacial Dynamics®. Located in Sacramento, California, she brings therapeutic and educational movement of Spacial Dynamics, often with a gentle underscoring of music, to private clients in an Arden neighborhood studio, to young adults with autism at Meristem in Fair Oaks, and to Waldorf schools.

Specialties include:
