Movement Center Los Angeles

A meaningful start to the 21st season with Los Angeles Ballet 💖✨

Our Pre Season Dancer Screening was a great opportunity to connect with fellow colleagues and work individually with each dancer as they prepare for the season ahead.

As part of the Movement Conditioning & Wellness Team our goal is to help each dancer feel supported strong and prepared for the demands of the season while building a foundation for a long and healthy career. Grateful to be part of this team and to support these dedicated and talented dancers.

Here’s to a healthy and inspiring 21st season!🩰✨

Congratulations to the Los Angeles Ballet Trainees in collaboration with Westside Ballet of Santa Monica who have officially earned contracts with LAB! 🩰♥️🙏

This achievement is the result of an exceptional year filled with relentless hard work dedication perseverance discipline and an unwavering commitment to growth. Every class rehearsal performance challenge setback and breakthrough contributed to this moment.

As the conditioning coach for the LAB dancers and trainees and as a member of the wellness team at Westside Ballet, it has been incredibly rewarding to witness the evolution of these young artists. We worked closely alongside the Westside Ballet and LAB faculty to help develop not only their physical strength, mobility, stability, and resilience but also their confidence in movement and overall athletic capacity as dancers.

Our goal was to provide them with the tools to move more efficiently perform more powerfully recover more effectively and build bodies capable of meeting the demands of a professional dance career. Watching them apply that work in the studio to stage and now seeing it culminate in professional contracts is something truly worth celebrating.

This accomplishment belongs to the dancers their teachers coaches families and the entire support system that helped them along the way. The future is bright and this is only the beginning

Congratulations! Holly camille Ashley Chung We are proud of the artists and professionals you are becoming ✨🩰💪

Education has always been at the heart of Merrithew.

Today, we’re proud to share that Merrithew has officially acquired the GYROTONIC® organization - creator of the globally recognized GYROTONIC® and GYROKINESIS® methods, known for their distinctive approach to fluid, whole-body movement.

For decades, both organizations have helped people move with greater strength, mobility, control and confidence through world-class education and movement experiences.

This moment represents more than growth. It reflects a shared belief that movement has the power to change lives - and a continued commitment to advancing the future of mindful movement education worldwide.

We’re honoured to help carry forward the legacy created by founder Juliu Horvath and excited for what this next chapter means for instructors, studios and movement professionals around the world.

What a beautiful experience it was to spend quality time with colleagues moving together in nature through an intensive Gyrokinesis® class ~ specially tailored for dancers and guided by none other than Juliu Horvath the founder of the GYROTONIC® method. 🌿✨

There’s something truly powerful about stepping away from the everyday routine and reconnecting with our bodies breath and each other in such a natural setting. Surrounded by fresh air open skies and shared intention we found moments of laughter presence and deep connection both within and around us.

Grateful for the opportunity to recharge, reflect, and strengthen the bonds that make us not only better movers but better humans. These are the experiences that inspire true creativity and community. 💚
