Moovjam inspires and builds momentum. It embraces the total child, empowers the adults who guide them, and leads to a major societal change that will result in a shift towards healthy eating and active living.

Moovjam advocates a strategy of self-defense in a health hostile world, recognizing that families need help to cope with real life pressures. Moovjam initiatives are FUN. Activities are interactive and inclusive, with minimal “sit-down” discussion. Ongoing support and incentives keep kids and families motivated in habit changing, non-competitive environments.

Moovjam professionals –nutritionists, therapists, social workers, neuro-psychologists, nurses, fitness trainers and doctors actively engage and support students, teachers, parents, and fellow professionals on a daily basis via email, telephone and video-conferencing. This is provided as a free service, to help children and adults overcome the challenges that can prevent a healthy and fit lifestyle.

Moovjam uses effective cognitive-behavioral modification strategies, such as role modeling, positive reinforcement, and teaching children to self-monitor. Moovjam is dedicated to delivering culturally competent, age-appropriate, multilingual programs that reflect and celebrate the diversity of individuals and different cultures.
