Move With Intention

The people behind the work

Human connection meets practical structure.

Move With Intention® was founded by Lacey Cook and Iván Quintero. Together, they bring complementary strengths to work that involves the whole person behind the performance.

Lacey Cook and Iván Quintero, founders of Move With Intention

Different strengths. Shared intention.

Lacey & Iván

Lacey leads with human connection and deep listening. She designs experiential facilitation and movement that help adults learn by doing, with care for meaningful details and room for fun.

Iván brings strategy, systems, and operations. He turns insight into clear plans and structure, stays calm under pressure, and brings the consistency of athletic discipline to execution.

Together, one keeps the work deeply human and the other keeps it moving. Their approach is warm, direct, and participatory. You do not only talk about a different way of leading and living. You begin practicing it.

In the room

Experiential, practical, and led together.

Lacey and Iván lead sessions side by side, from a leadership team in a small room to a full auditorium of educators. Participants move, reflect, and practice tools they can use the same day.

Shared philosophy

Awareness. Action. Repetition. Integration.

Notice what is happening. Choose a meaningful action. Practice it more than once. Integrate what works into the way you lead and live.
