At The Movement Arts Lab we are dedicated to helping artists thrive with longevity of career in mind.
We want to change the narratives behind bodies and movement and offer resources that can help with injury management and prevention, as well as conditioning for peak performance. We understand that your body is your livelihood, and that the demands the industry places on one’s instrument are high, and can leave you feeling vulnerable with little resources for long term solutions.

COMMUNITY
We are dedicated to continuing our education to provide evidence based information, drawing from current movement science, and seeking guidance and influence from other health care professionals.

We are committed to fostering partnerships in the arts community and beyond with like minded professionals and companies who strive to uplift artists around with globe.
