Earth Day provides a moment for regenerative action, for Viviobarefoot and for people and organisations around the world. It is a rallying cry to celebrate Earth, unite as a global environmental movement, emphasise the need for urgent action and show how perilous ‘normal’ ways of life can be.

HYPER-MOBILITY – what is it and how can it affect your child´s growth? One mother got in touch with us to tell her story, hoping it might help others.

Kids learn best when they´re moving – and moving barefoot is even better for their growing feet, bodies and brains too.
