Our Story

Founded on the guiding principles of movement, connection and community

We believe in the journey to becoming our best selves. We believe in intention behind every movement. And we believe in finding balance in all that we do. 

The Movement Loft is a balanced mind-body-soul approach to fitness and health, built around an inspiring community. 

At our core is a reimagined take on what it means to be fit; trading in the old-fashioned ‘no pain, no gain’ mentality for a more balanced approach that is guided by what the body craves, strength through community, and creative practices that energize and reinvigorate the soul. 

We’re inspired by our elite movement instructors who coach us, guide us and empower us to find balance both inside and outside of the studio. Moreover, we’re inspired by our community of peers who are positive, creative and supportive. 

Find your Balance. Embrace your Tribe. Power your Health.

How The Movement Loft got its start

Established 2020… The Movement Loft is a solo, Latina owned, self-funded dream. After years of intense fitness and dance training that resulted in a yoga injury in 2015, Ellen sought a more balanced approach to fitness that felt fun, inclusive, safe, comfortable and body-positive - and imagined that others were looking for the same. Combining her love for dance and yoga, The Movement Loft was born (on paper at least). At night after work, for years Ellen planned and saved to create the space.

2 weeks after opening, covid hit and the world came to a shutdown. While it hasn’t been an easy story to live through, it is the truth of the space and a story of perseverance. We welcome all bodies who want a space that is friendly, welcoming, and most importantly, build on community.

Connecting through movement and shared experience.

We ground ourselves in learning how to prepare the body, strengthen the mind, and condition the soul. Each class is a sensory experience combining movement, sound, taste and sensation for a soulful experience.
