A bit of history

Founded in the early 2010s, Terapia Movimento Corporal emerged from the growing interest in holistic health in Rio de Janeiro. The studio was established by a team of physiotherapists and dancers who sought to blend Western rehabilitation methods with Eastern movement philosophies. It has since become a local hub for body awareness practices.
