Moving Spirit

How You Move Matters. Passion. Purpose. Performance. What are you passionate about? What brings you joy, gets you up in the morning and stirs a fire in your heart?

The stuff that brings you alive is the very best stuff of life. Who wouldn't want more of it? And that's what Moving Spirit is about. We want to support you in creating your best moving body so that you can engage the world with your passion and live life LARGE! Moving Spirit is dedicated to the dynamic exploration of the heart, soul and science of movement. Here, fitness meets flow and creativity and physicality find their true home in the body. Under the direction of Susannah Steers, Moving Spirit's programs evolve from an understanding that fluid, balanced movement comes from awareness and attention to the whole body and its fluid web of inter-connected systems. The Moving Spirit programs engage the whole body and involve a unique integration of leading edge science, holistic health practices, and creative sensibilities. We go beyond fitness and classical techniques to support movement enthusiasts and professionals in finding an embodied experience - creating highly personal, lasting and often transformative results. Our training practices promote a discovery of inner resources, ignite physical vitality and inspire a dedication to self-care and self-expression through movement.

Mindful practice. Consistency. Showing up and doing the best work you can do each time. This is where results are born.

Anyone can dabble. Leaning in to learn, and to experience your movement in a new way is powerful medicine for body AND soul.

We don’t do drop in classes. Instead, you have our entire team at your side, working to support your progress and development. Personalized programs and expert coaching to move you in the direction of your goals - in a way that respects where you are now and where you want to go next.

Allison is all set up for her “Activate Your Inner Core: The Iliopsoas Complex” Franklin Method workshop!

We’ve got a full room this afternoon! Folks will learn about the iliopsoas, important and often misunderstood hip flexor muscles (and more) and they’ll gain tools to support greater ease in walking, running, standing and generally moving around through life!

Enjoy!! 🏃‍♂️🏃‍♀️

A reminder that Moving Spirit will be CLOSED for Remembrance Day tomorrow, Tuesday, November 11th.

We will be taking this day to pause, reflect and remember those who served, and continue to serve, so that we may have peace and freedom. Remembrance Day is a moment to honour their sacrifices and courage.

We can reflect not only on the past, but also on the ongoing importance of nurturing peace and understanding in our turbulent world.

🌸 Remembrance Day ceremonies will be held in North Vancouver at the Victoria Park Cenotaph and at Cates Park.

👀👀 Check out some of these great shots - highlights from our 'New Beginnings' Breast Cancer fundraising event held October 23. This special evening was co-hosted by Moving Spirit, Coast Outdoors and Diane's Lingerie with InspireHealth. Our featured speaker for the event was Olympic kayaker and breast cancer survivor Kamini Jain.

At Moving Spirit Pilates, we see firsthand the power of community, hope, and support in every healing journey. We were honoured to contribute to the Canadian Cancer Society knowing that funds raised will fuel life-changing research, compassionate support services, and advocacy for people affected by cancer across Canada.

If you were part of this event in any way, if you purchased a ticket, made a donation, spread the word or cheered us on - thank you for joining us in making a meaningful difference; helping to create brighter futures, new beginnings, and stronger communities for everyone walking the cancer path.

We think the pictures say it all! 💗

🌟 Cadillac play on a Friday!

Whether you call it a Cadillac or a Trapeze Table, there are so many different ways to work with this wonderful piece of Pilates apparatus. The equipment makes it possible for us support or challenge movement in literally hundreds of different ways.

Here we have a version of the iconic Pilates Hundred exercise, and the Push Through. What are your favourites? ♥️

Welcome November!

Our theme of the month in the studio is 'release'. The falling leaves (and rain) can serve as a reminder that letting go, while not always easy, can open the door to ease, flow, and possibility.

We all carry things that weigh us down ... tensions in the body, habits that no longer serve us, thoughts that keep us stuck. At Moving Spirit, we’re exploring what it means to release, both on and off the mat.

In the studio, release might look like softening unnecessary effort, breathing with more ease, or moving with a sense of spaciousness. Beyond the mat, it might mean loosening your grip on old patterns, beliefs, or expectations that no longer align with who you are.

As you move through November, get curious about what release means for you. Where could you invite in more softness, space, or freedom? We’d love to partner with you in this exploration ... one breath and one movement at a time.

We'd love to hear your thoughts in the comments!
