Loo Movement

A Physical Therapist-informed blend of Qigong, Yoga, and Pilates for restoring optimal alignment.

As a trained physical therapist for over 20 years, and a certified instructor of yoga, qigong, and Pilates, and trained in hypnotherapy and reiki, it goes without saying, the body has always been Valerie’s passion. She’s a continual explorer of movement, present-time awareness, and the unification of body and mind. Valerie is passionate about approaching the body holistically and is fascinated by the intersection of where science meets spirituality, east meets west, and problem-solving meets intuition.

I feel honored to be hosting my first solstice event on Sunday Dec 21, 5:15-6:30pm. This will be a gentle way to honor the season, soothe your nervous system, and reconnect with yourself during a busy time of year.

I will guide the first half with gentle Loo Movement counter-shapes, then certified sound practitioner Laura Moir will offer a calming sound healing with bowls, gongs, and chimes. Come rest, reset, and welcome the returning light.

Spots are limited. Sign up with link in bio!

The 11:15am Techniques class filled up with a waitlist, so I added a new 12:15pm class this Sunday. Two spots are still open! Thanks to everyone who used the waitlist feature — it really helps me shape the schedule for you.

Registration is open for the new Monday 5:15pm Techniques class starting January 12! 🎉

This small, semi-private class (only 4 students) is perfect for improving your alignment, learning Counter-shapes, and getting tons of personalized attention. Each month has its own focus, making it a great way to begin or deepen your Loo Movement journey.

Grab your spot while it’s open! Link in bio. And if it fills, hop on the waitlist, I sometimes add another class when there’s enough interest. 💛

So fun to have Jessica join me in my home away from home, Mexico City! We loved seeing the pyramids at Teotihuacán, both from the ground and from a hot air balloon! I’ll miss her as she heads back to UCLA for her second year 💙
