This is an excellent curriculum-based approach that is contemporary and amazing supporting both learning and well-being

Debra Fletcher (AMDSB)

As an educator, this methodology of engaging learners is wildly refreshing - movement, engagement, application....and fun! A fresh approach to everything that our learners, young especially, need to develop confidence and agency in their learning!

Jimmy Judgey (co-founder Tutor Bright)

I brought Amy and her team to begin a staff PD day and wowzer! She knocked it out of the park!! Our staff of 64 educators (OCTs, DECEs, EAs, office admin) enjoyed the creative movement session and easily saw the curriculum connections that could be made. They equally valued the SEL component as we are all looking for new proactive ways at helping our growing number of students who arrive in our classrooms with self-regulation challenges. Two enthusiastic thumbs up for the Move EDGEucation digital resources our educators will be rolling out in their classrooms this fall.

Louise VanderPut (Vice Principal HWDSB)

We need a world where we are more in our body and less in our head. Moving EDGEucation is bringing balance to the education system with her body-based teaching methods and it is truly revolutionary. Kids are sitting more than ever; glued to technology more than ever; playing outside less than ever. This approach is bringing body intelligence back into the classroom in a way that is fun and inspiring.

Hima Batavia (Centre for Social Innovation)

As teachers, we need to provide our students with more opportunities to learn in different ways to ensure we meet all of their needs.  I love the way Moving EDGEucation connects learning between the body, the brain, and the being, and respects students for who they are. Students have a blast learning concepts in new, fun, and innovative ways. I am excited to be involved with such a creative approach to teaching and learning.

Alison Campbell (Elementary Itinerant Transition/Guidance Teacher - YRDSB)

I have attended several sessions at the elementary school where I am a teacher. It is incredible how they can engage students of all ages (Grade One to Eight) in movement. Everyone participates at their comfort level so it is truly a differentiated program allowing entry points for all students. Their passion is contagious and you leave the workshops feeling energized!

Shari Keats (Teacher, HDSB)

I love everything about Moving EDGEucation program. Its fun, its easy to implement, it doesn't require extra equipment or space and everything can be found in one spot. What I love most is that all students can be successful when participating in it as it allows easy entry points and encourages individuality.

Annie Nicholls (Teacher - SCDSB)

Thank you for your devotion to education through your work and passion. I believe in the kind of work you are doing and have the same belief that concepts are richer and deeper when accessed through creative movement and creative thinking. You are providing necessary resources in our changing world.

Larissa Benedetti (Teacher - HDSB)

The content was so relevant, the takeaways incredibly valuable and the connection to the cross curricular expectations gets educators talking in the four frames.

Melissa Purchase (UGDSB) 

I believe that students engage in their learning when they are active participants. Moving EDGEucation inspires teachers to incorporate movement into their classroom practice. Seeing our students walking, skipping, dancing, and laughing as they explore literacy and numeracy concepts is the greatest evidence that learning through movement works!

Sandi Cook (Principal  - LKDSB)

This innovative approach to education is exactly what we need more of in our classrooms! Let's stop forcing students to sit at a desk for hours and hours when and have them moving, experiencing and learning in an open and safe space with their peers!

(Welling Dufferin-Guelph Public Health)

As a school behavioural consultant, I often recommend Moving EDGEucation resources as an excellent tool to foster inclusion, well being and academic success in our classrooms. This approach supports a Universal Design for Learning and the principles of Differentiated Instruction. Through the exploration of kinaesthetic movement, students have the unique opportunity to express emotions while internalizing new learning. This tool is easily accessible to teachers and a valuable resource in engaging ALL students, exploring new concepts and skills and consolidating learning. Moving EDGEucation's resources are an asset in minimizing barriers in our classroom and maximizing success for all!

Ashley Weiss (TDSB Behaviour Consultant)

This is exactly what my boys need to make learning a more engaging and interactive process. I wish I had this opportunity growing up.

Justine Shoolman

(Parent and Workshop Participant)

What a fantastic day! Our EDGEucator was professional, superb and delivered an inspiring message which especially got older students out of their shells.

Christian Madigan (Teacher - TCDSB)

I greatly appreciate the approach taught by the program and my students love the learning process. As a teacher working in First Nation classrooms for 10 years, I have observed the success students experience learning through movement, music, creativity, self-awareness and growing confidence. It is meaningful to teach in a way that promotes a holistic approach to wellbeing, unifying the group of learners, while extending the opportunity for students to express their own individuality and self-identity. 

Rebecca Birtzu (Teacher, RAMA First Nations)

The Activities are set up to permit maximum repetition of movement in an ever changing environment with almost no time pressure or peer pressure - optimal conditions for the brain to learn how to orchestrate movement.
