Nothing brings us more joy than helping you learn tools and resources to move education into a more emotionally intelligent, whole, wellness-focused environment that champions different learning styles in a fun and creative way.
We love any opportunity to come and let you and or your students & teachers experience our approach first hand. Our ultimate goal is to inspire educators to implement these strategies into their classrooms on a regular basis
“Children learn through doing – play is how they explore their world, learn how to assess risk, try things out, and get to know themselves”
—Bethe Almeras
Elementary School Partnerships
Our goal is to be a supportive partner as you embed our key philosophies into your everyday educational practice. The result? Students are more active, engaged, creative, confident and connected, which research has shown results in higher classroom performance.
Different levels of EDGEucation are available: from working with students, to supporting teachers to effectively integrate Movement-Based, Social/Emotional Learning Methods right into teaching practice and curriculum.
We can work with your Students, Teachers or BOTH!

Student Activation
The gym will be buzzing with positivity (and sweat) as 3-4 classes get together to move their bodies in a highly engaging and inclusive environment! Students will not only be physically active moving their bodies to various music styles but will also be nurturing positive character traits like: creative expression, problem solving, self-regulation, confidence healthy peer interaction and other social/emotional skills! Once we start moving, you will see how uplifted students (and the teachers!) get, creating an environment where you can't help but have a smile on your face! It's so incredibly inspiring to see!
- Suitable and adaptable for ALL students K-8
- Try a general Movement-Based SEL Experience or choose a full Numeracy or Literacy Focus (especially great for returning schools)
- The day also comes with a 30min lunch and learn and mini resource package.

In this workshop you will gain a deeper understanding of our key philosophies and framework learning to use Movement and Social/Emotional Learning Methods to deliver different curriculum concepts (numeracy, literacy and more!). A great kinesthetic and differentiated instruction tool to increases academic engagement and understanding of concepts, while also supporting student well-being, DPA and positive classroom community. This is not an "add on" to the day, but a different way of looking at delivering curriculum where physical activity, creativity and connection to self and others becomes just how we do things - bridging the gap between meeting our curriculum expectations and the changing developmental challenges of students growing up in a digital world!
