You were made to move.

As a creative, you probably spend hours at your bench, your wheel, or in front of your screen, fully immersed in your craft. I see it all the time with the artists I support, and I’ve been myself too. But over time, all that sitting starts to take a toll.

On average, adults sit for over 9 hours a day and that doesn't include the extra time we spend on our phones. After hours of focused work, it’s natural to reach for a break... but instead of truly resetting, we often end up scrolling. And while it might feel like a pause, it usually keeps us in the same static posture, hips tight, spine compressed, and nervous system overstimulated.

That time spent sitting and scrolling doesn’t just affect your body—it impacts your creativity too.

When we’re sedentary and overstimulated, it’s harder to drop into flow, stay focused, and feel inspired. Our minds wander, our bodies ache, and the creative process starts to feel more like a struggle than a joy.

That’s where this challenge comes in.

Scroll to Squat is your invitation to swap the scroll for a deep squat (or modified squat  to start reclaiming deep, grounding movement that supports both your body and your creative flow.

Over these 5 days, I’ll guide you to:

• Gently rebuild your ability to deep squat (with plenty of modifications)
• Improve hip mobility and ease lower back tension
• Use habit-stacking to naturally integrate movement into your day
• Create more space, physically and mentally, for your creativity to thrive!

We’re not aiming for perfection, just presence. Let’s start where you are, move with intention, and make space for a new rhythm that truly supports the work you love.

Why deep squats?

Because reconnecting with this foundational movement helps unlock mobility, improve circulation, and ground your nervous system, fueling both your body and your creativity.

In this challenge, you’ll:

• Learn why deep squats matter for your posture, spine, and long-term creative health
• Rebuild mobility that’s often lost after years of sitting
• Practice safe, accessible modifications that honor your unique body
• Use habit stacking to make squatting second nature—like dropping into a squat when you catch yourself doom scrolling
• Connect with a creative community moving right alongside you

Designed with creatives in mind

This is about helping you feel strong, mobile, and grounded in your body so you can keep doing the creative work you love, without pain holding you back.

• You’re a Jeweler: Long hours at the bench can lead to compressed hips and stiff ankles. Deep squats help restore range of motion and bring circulation back to your lower body.
• You’re a Potter: Sitting at the wheel for extended periods can tighten your hips and strain your back. Squatting helps gently open the hips, support the spine, and bring balance back into your body.
• You’re a Graphic Designer: After hours of sitting and screen time, squats can wake up your lower body, decompress your spine, and counteract the postural stress of desk work.
• Other studio artists: Whether you’re seated at a loom, easel, or laptop, this challenge will help you reconnect with your natural mobility and create space for movement within your creative routine.

Deep squats are one of the most natural and essential human movements and we’re here to reclaim them together.

Each day, you’ll receive:

• Bite-sized movement guidance
• A reflection prompt to deepen awareness
• A simple challenge to stack onto habits you already have, like scrolling
• Encouragement to share your journey and connect with fellow creatives

Reconnect with your body. Reignite your creativity.
