Hi! I'm Dr Marcia (she/they). I'm a Doctor of Physical Therapy, author of Movement for Every Body, child of Haitian immigrants, chronic illness warrior, powerlifting strongwoman, and certified yoga teacher.
All bodies, abilities, sizes, strengths, & genders are welcome here to learn all things physical therapy, yoga, mobility, & strength. You'll find 3-5 minute quick tutorials on yoga poses (of all kinds) and exercises as well as 5-25 minute follow along mobility flows and yoga flows.
I love offering different options for different bodies to explore, accessible variations, and tips to scale up or down moves in my videos. I love to move slowly with intention and mindfulness, I hope you love moving with me!

It was never about having enough time but always about making the time. Get moving and grooving in whatever pockets of time you have.
Consistent and intentional movement can accomplish even if it’s only 5 or 10 minutes.
Think of it like brushing your teeth. A little bit goes a long way.

I'm curious, how often are you adding weights and bands when following the mobility flows?

if you sit at a desk for hours or have a long commute, might I suggest a little floor time and this stretch right here...

Strong arches and flexible feet build a sturdy foundation for exercise.
Knees cave in during squats? Arch pain with running? Foot cramps after dance?
Check your feet my friends!
and how convenient. I have a whole playlist of exercises you can try.

low key I wanna start some videos with "I tried the viral xyz" but it's just a normal thing I want to rope people into doing.
*I just tried the trending viral N95 mask and omg!*

PSA having a diagnosis in common doesn’t mean you’ll have the same solutions in common.
for ex, people ask if they can do my exercises with hypermobility. well I’m hypermobile and I can do them… but I can’t decide FOR you if you can or should. Like my hips don’t pop out their sockets only my shoulders do, I can’t even do a split.
Even with a shared diagnosis it’s not going to be the same experience for everyone.
If you have trouble figuring out your body and what works, besides my many videos on here, my book Movement for Every Body is always a great resource for that!
