Tracy A. McQuaidCreator/Movement Educator

My teaching stems from life experiences and modalities that ignite joy, rhythm and ease in the body while unearthing balance within the organism.  My intention in assisting each individual I work with is to physically activate the deep inner core unit along with encouraging the energy center of the body to flourish.   By using corresponding breathing patterns and movements we create flowing sensations.  The ultimate goal with these sensations is to discern and liberate stiffness in the body while resetting the myofascial system. 

I opened Fluid Kinetics in 2010, as movement has been an integral part of my daily life beginning with dance classes at a young age. My passion and accreditations include a lifetime of movement and curiosity along with certifications in the GYROTONIC EXPANSION SYSTEM® , both as a Licensed GYROTONIC® Trainer and a GYROKINESIS® Trainer. In addition I have completed a 600 hour comprehensive Pilates Instructor Certification and many more hours of continuing education.  I draw inspiration for each client session based on the body in front of me along with my diversity of experiences.  I believe the uniqueness of each interaction as important an element as the function of each session. The opportunity I have to share this gift with others brings my enthusiasm of movement to life.

I am grateful for the variety of programs and teachers I have studied with that continue to influence my teaching today.  And my supportive husband, Pete, who encourages me to follow my passions.  We call Fernandina Beach home and share it with our furry kids; Crosby, Nanci and Kendall.
