My mission is to inspire our youth to be healthy and happy. I am a student of human development and movement. I believe that self care is health care and have made it my life's work to teach children the skills necessary to care for themselves so that they may live long and happy lives. I want kids to be able to move well, move often, eat real food, be happy, get along, work hard, and rest well.

About Coach Ortiz: I am a Physical Educator. I have been teaching and coaching in the Pojoaque Valley School District since 2005. I believe in quality movement, eating well, having a good attitude, and resting as powerful ways to keep us healthy and thriving all the days of our life.

“If we could give every individual the right amount of nourishment and exercise, not too little and not too much,
