Today, we celebrate the women who move Malibu forward.

From our founder, .Segel, whose vision brought Malibu Moves to life,
to the staff and ambassadors who work tirelessly behind the scenes,
to the volunteers who show up before sunrise and stay long after the finish line, to our sponsors and vendors who believe in this movement,
and to every woman who laces up, lines up, and lifts others along the way.

Malibu Moves is built on strength, compassion, resilience, and community.

We see the early mornings.
We see the quiet leadership.
We see the courage it takes to start.
We see the power in showing up.

To every woman who moves with purpose — today we celebrate you.

Happy International Women’s Day. 💚

What does earning a medal really mean?

It means you showed up.
You trained when it would have been easier not to.
You pushed through doubt.
You finished something you started.

So yes… we bite it.

Fun fact: The medal bite actually became popular during the Olympics. Athletes would bite their medals because, historically, gold is soft enough to leave teeth marks. It became a playful way to show, “Is this thing real?”

That smile. That pride. That “I did it.”

The medal is symbolic.
The effort behind it is what’s real.

Malibu Moves is built by neighbors.

Volunteers who wake up early.
Families who come cheer.
Local schools we are proud to support.
People who care about this stretch of coast as much as we do.

When you register, you are not signing up for a race.
You are stepping into something local and lasting.

And we do not take that lightly.

Some people show up to serve.

And then they surprise you by showing up to compete.

Dr. Jessica Gass is known throughout the running community for her knowledge, precision, and passion for human movement. Founder of Doctor of Human Movement, DPT, CSCS, FAAOMPT, her credentials place her in the top tier of her profession nationwide.

But what we love most about Jessica is not just her resume.

It is the way she shows up.

Last year she hosted a pop up clinic at the Malibu Moves Expo, supporting runners before they even reached the start line. And then, at the last minute, she stepped in as a 1:30 Half Marathon pacer.

And then quietly placed 3rd overall.

That smile says everything.

Jessica understands the anatomy, the biomechanics, the science behind performance. But she also understands the heart behind it. As a former Division I athlete who battled injuries and fought her way back, she knows what it feels like to be at a crossroads. And she has dedicated her career to helping others find strength and success through movement.

We are so grateful our paths crossed.

Jessica, thank you for bringing your brilliance, your energy, and your joy to Malibu Moves.

If you are looking for physical therapy or performance coaching from someone who truly lives it, she is now available and accepting clients.

This is what community leadership looks like.

Some people don’t just participate in Malibu Moves.
They help build it.

Jalissa is one of the beating hearts behind this movement.

She moves for her daughter.
She moves for representation.
She moves for purpose over pace.

As our Ambassador Coordinator, she works behind the scenes to connect runners, welcome new faces into the community, and spread the spirit of Malibu Moves far beyond race day.

She has crossed our finish line more than once, and now she’s training for the LA Marathon while continuing to lift others up along the way.

This is what leadership looks like.
This is what community looks like.
This is what movement looks like.

We are so grateful for you, Jalissa. 💚

We have seen tears at that finish line.

Not dramatic ones.
Quiet ones.

The kind that come when someone realizes they did something they were not sure they could do.

That is the real reward.

The medal is just something you can hang on the wall.

For the past year, Mayor Riggins has shown up for Malibu in every sense of the word.

She has shown up for small businesses.
For local families.
For our schools.
For our community.

And she has shown up for Malibu Moves, not once, but twice, as a Founding Mover and participant.

We want to publicly thank her for her leadership, her accessibility, and her unwavering belief in the people and businesses that make this town special.

Public service is not easy work. It requires time, patience, and heart. And we are grateful for the way she has carried that responsibility.

We know her impact will continue as she serves on City Council.

And as one chapter closes, we welcome our new Mayor, Mayor Silverstein, and look forward to continuing to move forward together for Malibu.

Some days still feel heavy. And no — things haven’t magically changed.
But as Bad Bunny reminded us recently, “the only thing more powerful than hate is love.” 🤍

Here in Malibu, we choose to keep showing up for one another.
We believe in community, in connection, and in moving forward together — especially when it’s hard.

Love isn’t passive. It’s action. It’s care. It’s choosing each other again and again.

Stronger together. Always.
— Erica & The Malibu Moves Fam

In moments like this, staying true to our values matters.

Recent violence and harm in our country are deeply troubling. This isn’t about politics — it’s about people, safety, and humanity.

Malibu Moves was built on the belief that movement brings people together. We are a small business founded by immigrants and Americans who believe in the promise of community, dignity, and opportunity.

We don’t condone violence.
We believe in empathy, connection, and coming together — because community is the only way forward.

Stronger together. Always. 🤍
