The Movement Sherpa Podcast
Movement Sherpa is a podcast about the many ways movement shapes our lives.
Hosted by physical educator, parent, and author Chris Luby, each episode explores an everyday movement from riding a bicycle to climbing, and play, through stories, science, and real-world experience.
Whether you're a parent, teacher, lifelong mover, or simply curious about why humans move the way they do, you'll leave each episode seeing familiar movements in a completely new way.
Movement is for everyone.
