Think of us as the merger between CrossFit, Yoga, Flexibility, Mobility, and Body-weight Strength Training. Most people are looking for that sweet spot in training where they can become super strong, really flexible, feel amazing, look even better naked, and not get hurt. At MOVE, we combine several of these training methods into one. Our classes focus on skill acquisition, strength development, joint strength and mobility, core and low back training, shoulder prehab/rehab, endurance training, and much more. We also offer private training sessions, where customization is perfected. Our introductory program, called Fundamentals, allows you to work one-on-one with our coaches to learn the basics and prepare for classes. Once you’ve graduated, you’ll get to join our tribe of happy, healthy, quirky folks. We blend unlimited class access with scheduled private training sessions to keep you accountable, and ahead of the game.

Welcome to MOVE, Coach Steve Ellis 👋

Steve brings 40+ years of coaching and a lifelong love for gymnastics. He grew up competing in Chicagoland, started coaching at 16, and never stopped—even while serving 31 years in the U.S. Air Force, retiring as a Chief Master Sergeant (E-9). Along the way, he shared his expertise at 11 gyms across the country.

He holds an A.S. in Avionics Technology (Community College of the Air Force), a B.A. in Intercultural Studies (Moody Bible Institute), and completed master’s-level coursework in Pastoral Studies (Moody Theological Seminary).

Steve is fired up to bring his discipline, technical detail, and athlete-first coaching to help our community build real strength and skill.

Come say hi to Coach Steve in class—let’s get to work.

Here’s what class actually looks like—and what you’ll get from training with us. Today we worked rope climbs, Russian ring push-ups (a step toward ring muscle-ups), and wall-assisted handstand push-up eccentrics.

What you can expect when you show up consistently:
- Strong, stable shoulders that feel good under load
- Grip + core that carry over to pull-ups, dips, and toes-to-bar
- Clear progressions toward skills like ring muscle-ups and HSPU
- Better positions, fewer flare-ups, and confidence on the rope, rings, and wall
- A plan that makes sense week to week—so progress feels steady, not random

In-person or online, we assess where you are, build your plan, and coach you through the details that most gyms skip.

If milk was the answer, osteoporosis wouldn’t be this common. Here’s what actually builds stronger bones.

• Calcium needs teammates: Pair calcium with vitamins A/D/K2. Think sardines with bones, egg yolks, aged cheese if tolerated, and midday sun or D3/K2.
• Collagen + minerals: Bone broth and gelatinous cuts (shanks/oxtail) provide collagen; add vitamin C foods and magnesium (cacao, pumpkin seeds, greens).
• Protein & habits: Aim 20–40g protein per meal. Choose whole foods; limit soda/ultra-processed. Mineral boosters: sesame/tahini, small fish, kefir/yogurt if tolerated.

If your midline wobbles, everything wobbles. Our Fundamentals program locks in the pieces that make training feel solid—how to breathe and brace, how to hold a clean hollow/arch, and how to move your spine with control (not guesswork).

We’ll build anti-extension and anti-rotation strength (think dead bugs, bird dogs, Pallof work), then tie it into real movement—hinges, squats, carries, and entries for skills like handstands. The goal is simple: a core that actually transfers force and a spine that feels organized, not cranky.

Expect fewer “tweaky” reps, better positions under load, and carryover to everything else you do here.

Midday movers, this one’s for you. Starting Oct 2 at 12:00 PM, we’re adding a full-body strength + mobility class designed for the lunch hour—coach-led, scaled to your level, and meant to send you back to the day feeling energized, not wiped out.

Expect calisthenics-inspired strength, joint prep for shoulders/hips, core work, and a simple finisher with a little breath work to downshift stress. If you’ve wanted a smart noon option, we finally built it.

Wins like this are why we coach. This client was paired with Coach Jorge based on goals and training history, and it’s been a great fit. When your coach can both do the skills and explain the “why” behind each drill, you make real, repeatable progress—not just one good day on the bar.

What we’re seeing across students is pretty consistent: better pulling and pressing strength, cleaner skill lines (think first chin-ups, steadier handstands, stronger ring supports), fewer nagging aches, and more confidence session to session. It’s the combination of smart progressions and clear cues—technique first, then strength layered on top—that adds up.

We coach this two ways. In Clearwater, you get small-group training with hands-on feedback and a plan that meets you where you are. Online, you get the same methodology—personalized programming, movement assessment, and video feedback—so you always know what to practice and how to adjust.

If you’re ready for coaching that turns effort into outcomes, we’re here to help—in person or online. Use the link in our bio to book a free intro.

If you want more zinc, B12, and copper without another supplement, oysters are hard to beat. They’re small, dense, and surprisingly versatile—great for recovery and everyday energy.

How I use them depends on the day. Fresh on the half shell gets lemon and a little dill. Busy week? I grab tinned oysters, squeeze citrus, add herbs, and throw them on sourdough or a warm rice bowl. Craving something cozy, I pan-sear with garlic and lemon or stir them into a light broth with potatoes and greens. The common thread is simple: citrus + herbs keep the flavor bright and the prep quick.

A couple of notes from coaching: buy fresh from reputable sources and eat them the same day; if you’re pregnant or immunocompromised, go cooked; and tinned options make it easy to stay consistent. Small food, big payoff.

Our Story

Think of us as the merger between CrossFit, Gymnastics Inspired Strength Training, Flexibility, and Mobility.The combined experience of our coaches in the fields of Exercise Physiology, Traditional Strength Training, GST, Martial Arts, and Movement allows for a diverse yet highly effective training experience.

Our coaches are able to teach key levels of development – from the absolute beginner starting anew, to the intermediate athlete/lifter/weekend warrior and into the realm of competitive, advanced athletes.

Our mission is to coach all our members to the point where their bodies are once again strong, resilient, and more bendy. Most people are looking for that sweet spot in training where they can become super strong, really flexible, feel amazing, look even better naked, and not get hurt. That’s us!

We have a robust beginner program called Fundamentals, where you’ll get to work one-on-one with our coaches to learn the basics and prepare for classes. While in Fundamentals, you’ll also get exposure to a couple of our famous stretch classes – always an enlightening experience for the hips, legs, back and shoulders (in a good way).
