Meet Mari Udarbe Han – Movement and Performance Specialist

Mari Udarbe Han is the owner and operator of 519Physio, a treatment space housed within 519 School of Hip Hop where can dance screening assessments, wellness workshops and physiotherapy interventions are all made accessible to the London community!

Mari graduated from University of Manitoba and has been practicing for almost 10 years with experience in orthopedics, treating various sports-related injuries and musculoskeletal injuries.  Inspired by her own dance journey as part of the Kayumanggi Philippine Performing Arts of Manitoba and Synergy Dance Productions, Mari is a big advocate for artist health and wellness.  In 2020, she hosted the first ever “Artist Wellness: Virtual Summit” with many guest speakers covering topics including nutrition, hypermobility, strength, mental health, etc.

Mari believes in treating individuals as a whole, which means recognizing the effects of mental health, socioeconomic factors and the experience of trauma when optimizing performance and function.  The goal is empowerment, rather than creating dependency.

519physio embodies creativity in healing and healing in creativity.  If you have questions about physiotherapy or wellness in general, you can send Mari an e-mail via hello@519physio.ca or find her on Instagram @519physio
