Well one of my worst nightmares came true yesterday. MOVE has gone underwater. A huge flood happened inside the studios and MOVE was submerged. Needless to say.im just absolutely heartbroken. So as I deal with insurance, get the place dry, pull up all the floors, baseboard and try to find wood subfloor and new flooring in this climate.
I appreciate your patience. I am working day and night to get back to our regular programming and I am literally moving as fast as I can. So sadly I can't give a reopening date as of yet. But I promise you that I am doing absolutely everything that I can to make this as speedy as possible. We are however held hostage to the shipping industry at the moment and getting flooring is proving to be a challenge.

Basement studio (straight past the archery range and down, across from the women's 30HIIT & kickboxing gym) MOVE New West offers a nurturing environment with a focus on dance, yoga and pilates.
Relevant for covid safety: space is ventilated by cross draft (doors open at both ends) or AC. Tape marks help keep social distancing and cleaning protocols are good, but you have a good chance of crossing paths with a human. If you aren't ready to leap to being around people yet, their new online classes are extremely encouraging and let you stretch, sweat and shimmy from the safe isolation of your home

I've been going here for 2 months and have been extremely happy. It's a welcoming studio with a great class selection and knowledgeable, energetic instructors and students from a mix of ages and fitness levels. The pricing is very reasonable, worth every penny (the two week intro pass was a great deal!). Jenni works hard to get to know the students and bring a feeling of community to the studio. She and Sam have kicked my butt into getting more fit every class. I would recommend this place to anyone, from fellow beginners to experienced fit folks.

I signed up for the two-week unlimited class trial option, and knew from my first visit that I would be coming back regularly. Jenni has created a studio that is welcoming to people from all backgrounds and experience levels, and her classes are both fun and physically challenging. Truly a fantastic place to get fit, have fun, workout in a group environment, and challenge your body to try new things. I can't recommend this studio highly enough. Try it - you will not be disappointed! Jenni and team - you all rock!

Going to MOVE has changed my life for the better. Jenni used to teach me dance as a child and she continues to inspire and motivate me with her amazing, unique teaching style. Her classes make me feel like working out isn’t a chore, it is fun and energizing. I would recommend this to anyone and everyone who is looking for something different .

I love that I always come out feeling improved and the instructors are all so awesome (especially Jenni) they create a relaxed slumber party atmosphere, even while challenging you to push yourself further. My abs are always sore coming out. Maybe it's the exercise, it might also be all the laughing.

Wanted to try Barre for a while, Google brought them up so tried the two week trial and went to one of nearly every type of class... and now that my trial is over, signed up for longer!
There is a really welcoming atmosphere and the classes are awesome! Jenni is amazing and I look forward to my next class every time.

This a fantastic studio. The owners really pull out all the stops to make this a warm and welcoming space. You can use their mats and enjoy a complimentary cup of tea after class. They even have hair elastics and feminine products in the washroom if you need them.
I tried yoga and The Barre. Both were great! Jenni is a very enthusiastic and kind instructor. I would like to come back for more classes. Highly recommended!

This studio is awesome. If you live in the area (or even if you don't, like me) you should go check it out! It has any equipment you could possibly need (including mats!) available for you to use for each class.
Jenni is awesome. I've been taking classes with her for 5+ years and she has a great core following of members! I live by Brentwood Mall in North Burnaby so it's a bit of a drive for me (20 minutes or so), but I still haven't found an instructor or a class that I see the same results from as I do from her HardCore class. So... off I go on little mini adventures to New

The best studio! I tried one class here and got hooked. The owners and teachers are so friendly and knowledegable. One of the owners, Jenni, teaches many of the classes. I like that they have such a wide range of classes: Barre, yoga, Pilates, Zumba and more. People of all ages, levels and body types will feel welcome here.
I also like that they supply the mats and equipment, and tea so you can relax and chat after class.

MOVE studio is awesome. The owners are both fantastic & the Thursday night restorative yoga with Angelina is possibly my favourite class ever. When you finish your class there is really relaxing hot tea from the Great Tea Wall waiting for you. I register conveniently online before I head to the class. They have a great selection of classes that range from pilates to dance to yoga. The atmosphere is calming and I'm thrilled to have such a great studio just blocks from my house in Sapperton!

Arriving in the area from a smaller community, I found other studios I visited to be a bit overwhelming, especially as a yoga beginner (holy enormous class sizes, Batman!). I had almost given up on finding a big town studio with small town vibes. Enter MOVE! The lovely Jenni and Aaron have created a studio that has warmth and soul. The space is beautiful and calming, the people are exceptionally friendly, and even the fullest classes keep their intimate feel. I am so grateful to have found this gem. If you're looking for a studio that feels more like a second home, check MOVE out - you won't regret

MOVE is the best! I love the idea of yoga, pilates AND dance all in one spot. The instructors are full of energy, super friendly and fun. The owners, Jenni, Aaron and Pogo immediately make you feel welcome and part of the team. No matter what kind of day I'm having, after just one hour at MOVE, I'm always leaving with a smile and feeling so much better. Do the 2 week unlimited trial and I guarantee you'll come back for more. Thank you guys for creating such an amazing place! :)

I've been coming to Move for a little over 3 weeks now and I LOVE it! The unique variety of classes keep it fresh and the instructors are fantastic. The classes are fun and even though you are getting a killer workout, somehow you are so busy having enjoying the class you don't notice (until the next day, that is!). I can't say enough about this gem, you really have to try it out for yourself.
This is more than a studio, it is a community.

As someone who really enjoys moving and dynamic activities, I had always thought Yoga was not for me: MOVE made me change my mind and is now part of my daily routine.
The choice of classes is incredibly diverse and the monthly pass is a really good deal as it gives you unlimited access to all classes.
Jenni, Aaron and all the other instructors are out of this world: they are very welcoming and attentive to everyone's needs, they take you where you're at and they know how to get the best of you. So there is absolutely no pressure: the classes are a lot of fun but you get out with a good workout

Been here a few times for the late yoga class on Tuesdays.
It's a cute little studio, the space is small but very well laid out, there is a small assortment of goods you can purchase - all canadian which I appreciate. They aren't pushy about you purchasing anything but are really knowledgable if you have questions.
The studio itself is very clean, the bathrooms are as well.
The two owners are approachable and friendly, willing to have a quick chat but also content to just let you be.
There's more than enough yoga supplies offered - mats, blocks, straps, bolsters
