The Meadowood Program: A MOVE™ Model Site

Lori Potts, PT | November 2018

You’ve heard us talk about MOVE™ for years, and there’s no question we’re unabashed boosters for this wonderful program. We first ran into Linda Bidabe, MOVE’s founder, in 1988 when her program was in its infancy and we’ve loved it ever since. If you’re not convinced, or if you just want to understand it better, set aside 20 minutes today, pour a cup of coffee, and watch this beautiful portrait.

 

If you are new to MOVE™, watch this half hour introductory webinar.
