Transform My Classroom
Ready to transform your traditional, sedentary classroom into a setting where your students are ready to move and learn? Start here!
Active Seating
Active seating—like under-desk pedals, accordion stools, balance disks, stability balls and stationary bikes—is a super popular entryway program. Teachers get it. Students get it. It’s tangible. The seating is our first step in building deeper relationships with our teachers and students.
It addresses some of the most pressing needs students are facing today: Social and emotional learning. So many students are struggling with mental health, absenteeism and learning loss due to the pandemic. Movement is a critical tool that gives students the power to overcome feelings that get in their way of learning.
In fact, 80% of teachers report that active seating helps their students’ social and emotional learning. And 75% of teachers report their students are more on task. That’s a huge deal. Students need every advantage—and active seating is at the top of the list.

Stationary Bikes
Everyone loves these stationary bikes so they can read and ride at the same time. We set them up in school libraries and hallways so they can be used by all students in turn. Our goal is to get them in all Alexandria City Public Schools.

Toolkit
Recognizing the need for teachers to have simple ways to get kids active right at their fingertips, our Move2Learn Toolkit contains fun activities to increase focus and ignite the brain.

Out of School Time
We love it when students start and end the school day whey they participate in programs like running, walking and yoga clubs or get to and from school under their own power by walking, biking or rolling.

SEAL
M2L is hard at work bringing Move2Learn : Move2Heal Social Emotional & Academic Learning (SEAL) lessons to ACPS students. We developed and are now teaching the benefits of movement on emotions through a series of lessons entitled “Boosting My Emotions Through Movement.” Students learn the science behind the mind-body connection, identify a variety of emotions that often stand in the way of learning, and practice simple movements and deep breathing techniques aimed at mitigating negative emotions and re-focusing on learning.
We delivered SEAL lessons to over 1,700 students in grades K-12 during the 2021-22 school year.
