Review:

A book that is easy to follow and understand. Every school age child should be educated with Stickyman Movements. If we start teaching our children at a young age that movement is something that will benefit them all their lives we will decrease a lot of major diseases --Teresa Chavez, Middle School Teacher, El Paso, Texas

I have found using Stickyman Movements inspires people to move. They are easy to follow and people enjoy doing them. I find a little humor goes a long way. Stickyman is influencing change. --Terry Cameron, Physical Therapist Assistant, Home Health West

Now we have a different approach to improve people s movement. We can utilize their imagination adding humor and determination with a program that anyone can do. For change to occur people need to empower themselves and Stickyman does just that for people of all ages. --Patty Vatter, Nurse, Seattle, Washington
