Empowering Healthcare through Movement and Education

At Explore the Magic of Motion®, we believe that movement—whether physical, mental, or social—plays a key role in improving health. This belief is the foundation of everything we do, inspired by Dr. Jazmine Tooles, our founder, who has dedicated her career to making healthcare more accessible, engaging, and culturally sensitive.

 

Dr. Tooles’ journey began in 2012 when, as a student at the University of Delaware, she developed the Physical Therapy Fun Patch Program for Girl Scouts. This innovative program taught girls about healthy living through exercise and introduced them to physical therapy as a healing profession. Approved by Girl Scouts USA as a Council Badge from 2013 to 2018, it later became a Fun Patch that scouts could proudly wear on their vests.

 

Driven by the success of this initiative, Dr. Tooles took her passion for health education further. In 2013, with support from her classmates and faculty, she created movement-based health literacy workshops, engaging over 40 Girl Scouts and 30 student physical therapists in hands-on learning. These workshops, which helped children understand health concepts in a fun and memorable way, continued annually at the University of Delaware’s STAR Campus until 2020.

After graduating, Dr. Tooles expanded her impact across New Jersey, hosting workshops at clinics like Life in Motion Physical Therapy, MossRehab, JagOne, Specialized PT, WillowCreek Rehab and CentraState Medical Center. These workshops reached over 300 children and 250 volunteers from diverse communities, helping them navigate the healthcare system, improve health literacy, and learn to advocate for their well-being.

 

At Explore the Magic of Motion®, we believe that healthcare education should be accessible, empowering, and tailored to each individual. By combining the power of movement with technology and personal engagement, we are shaping a future where every person—regardless of background or resources—has the tools and knowledge to live a healthier life.

 

Join us in our mission to improve health literacy, healthcare navigation, and cultural competence, and together, let's make the magic of movement work for all.
