Who dreamt of a better world; Who rose to the occasion; Having faith for the cause; The ones who dared to move.

Making a way for others to dream dreams and created a generational breakthrough.

This Is What MOVEs Us

It starts with a drop of water, then the ripple effect.

And here, there’s room for those who believe in the same. One day because of you, many will experience a life of breakthroughs.

We invite you to take part in this journey.

Who Are We?

Here, you see fitness coaches, educators, entrepreneurs, marketers, and thought leaders coming together under one roof. Shoulders by shoulders, chanting “Breakthrough”.

We believe that a fitness business’s impact can only be magnified at the level of a people’s movement when powerful leaders join forces to achieve a just cause.

A cause so just that people who came together, despite being already powerful in their own rights, are willing to put humanity before disparity.

More Leaders

More Impact

So the mission is simple: We bring breakthroughs to coaches through leadership development who in turn build more leaders. The more leaders we have, the more clients we are able to serve and impact.

Our clients are then leaders themselves who bring breakthroughs to those they serve. Together as breakthrough communities all around, we create a breakthrough ripple effect that eventually becomes a breakthrough movement.

This is the fundamental vision of our business. This is what we believe.

Are These Your Current Struggles?

A career that was once promising...

You know... the passion, the purpose and the excitement,

But somehow, it started to wane off over time when you're constantly thrown with challenges (shown on left) that you can't seem to overcome by doing what's within your control.

The truth is...

The conventional path and system for coaches have failed, resulting in many coaches are dealt with cards that could put even the most passionate coach out of the game.

Most of us here at MOVE were once like you, some were lost and constantly on a search for something purposeful, some had thought of ending their fitness career to pursue something more sustainable.

Our mission is to elevate the welfare and wellbeing of coaches and we are here to bring up healthy and powerful leaders that can impact the world together.

However, we have listed the prerequisites in the details of the available positions above that are fundamental. If you tick those boxes, we welcome you to apply for our recruitment audition.

I don't have any personal trainer certification, should I go for one before I apply?

We will then refer you to a personal training certification that is the most suitable for you. In saying that, we will still not confirm a place for you until we have taken you through a full interview process.

I don't have any studio management experience but would like to try it out
