Michelle is committed to develop and offer empowering mobility to people interested in learning new ways to move more efficiently using the Anat Baniel Method^SM. Michelle works with children and adults with special needs, as well as artists, musicians, athletes, health professionals, and people in need of learning new ways to move more effectively. After working with Michelle, people often report increased mobility, balance, coordination, and vitality.

Fortunately Michelle began studying with Anat Baniel early in her 20-year physical therapy career. Michelle knew she found her life’s passion while experiencing her first five minutes of a Movement Lesson with Anat in 1996. The Anat Baniel Method^SM enriched her specialties in neuromuscular re-education, gait training, and balance and vestibular rehab while practicing in hospital and chiropractic clinics with adults and children. Michelle is on the forefront for transforming healthcare and education to include NeuroMovement^® as standard practice for evolving mobility with dignity.

Michelle received her Bachelor of Science in Physical Therapy from Marquette University in 1994. She graduated from Anat’s Chicago Feldenkrais^® Training in 2000. Michelle completed her ABM Children’s Mastery in 2006, followed by Vitality and Anti-Aging and High Performers Masteries in 2008. Michelle began supporting her ABM Professional Basic Training in 2009 and became an Assistant Trainer in 2012. She has been teaching community Movement Lessons since 1998 at hospital wellness programs, health expos, massage schools, university and high school programs in addition to workshops for parents, teachers, physical therapists, nurses, medical administrators, community Parkinson’s and Multiple Sclerosis support groups, horse riding clubs, Shawano Folk Music Festivals, and the Midwest Women’s Herbal Conference. Her private practice is based in Green Bay, Wisconsin. This includes teaching at ANU Studios for Well-Being in Neenah, WI.
