{Social - Emotional Empowerment Learning & Movement For Girls}
BIG NEWS!!!!!
We learned some great lessons during the pandemic and one of those is that we want kids
everywhere to be able to learn the power of movement and how to use their voices to
advocate for themselves and others!
This means ALL of our curricula is now available to download for FREE!
Thanks to generous donors, we are able to ensure all kids everywhere can have access to
Mini Mermaids and Young Tritons!
"I believe that when girls know that they are capable of doing just one thing they didn’t think they could do, they unleash the power to do everything else they might do. And that makes the world a better place for all of us."
