As a rowing coach I’ve worked with many physical trainers. This program is the best program I’ve ever seen for someone to truly learn the fundamentals of how to move their. I’m excited to get further into the program but I’m already recommending it to many friends

I have a hard time navigating the courses. I’m not sure if it’s me or just a learning process. The videos are great, teachers are good and visuals are spot on.

Mixing education and entertainment is super important and MoveU has done an excellent job helping both normal people and exercise professionals learn more about healthy movement in a way that is fun and convenient. Thanks Mike and the Team!

Within three days of starting the MoveU program, I could turn my head to the right, without pain, for the first time in over 2 years. For the price of 4 chiropractic visits (which were not helping anyway) I am now fixing my s*^%! - undoing the hours of computer-oriented work, in and around being a very active, exercise-oriented 50+ person. So grateful to the MoveU team for this approach to structural work.

I love MoveU!
I love the MoveU program. I have been doing it now for about a month and it seems to be helping. I love the energy of Dr. Mike and all of the coaches ; they truly seem to care. It is great to hear what they have all gone through in their body/pain journey because it gives hope. Their energy is contagious too. The program is well set up… although maybe they need to give the “how to follow the program” at the start of all the programs, not just the total body one. The information is in all of the programs but that one just seems to have it all up front, which clears up any confusion. Also, during the videos, especially when the coaches talk, the audio isn’t great.
Other than those tiny things, which do NOT impact the efficacy of the program at all, I have no complaints. THANK YOU for MoveU!

Great program, highly recommend to anyone.
I am still very new to the program however I am already seeing improvements with my posture and pain.
The videos and tutorials are extremely easy to follow and the content is excellent.
I highly recommend.

Not sure (I wasn't but now I am)
I have mixed feelings about MoveU, the theory is great and there is plenty of detailed videos. My main issues, firstly there is no support unless you're happy to sell your soul (and more importantly, your personal information) to Facebook where you can get support from "the community". You're spending a fair amount of money on membership, so support really shouldn't need to be provided by fellow users. It also shouldn't require signing up to a third party service that many people have quite strong (and negative) feelings about.
The layout doesn't seem particularly user friendly and it isn't especially intuitive for finding specific content quickly. Whilst the videos are very detailed, it would have been useful to have summary video options for a quick reminder instead of having to rewatch longer videos each time.
My other issue, the fact that so far, the exercises are actually causing problems rather than fixing anything. When I started, I had a sore shoulder, a month in and that shoulder is worse,, the other one is having problems and my back is now aching, despite never having had back problems in my life. Now it's quite possible it's sheer coincidence, it could be one of those things, it could be that I'm doing something wrong or it could be that the exercises aren't right for me. But because I won't use Faceboook, I have no way of finding out, although, again, it's really not something that other members should be having to provide help with.
If you're more active than I am and happy to use Facebook, this might be a good program for you. But for me it seems as though it's going to end up at best being a waste of money, at worst leaving me more damaged than I was when I started. So not a membership I will likely be renewing.
EDIT
In relation to the reply from MoveU, from what I can see, the Zoom events are just that, events with multiple people in attendance and with a specific purpose, so not really an avenue to get support or feedback on a completely unrelated topic. So again, not really very helpful.
I have now completely given up with the MoveU program and the additional issues the program was causing or exacerbating are easing and settling down.
With giving up on the starting program I had a little look around at the other content and, frankly, I just can't. The newer instructors all seem to have the levels of deranged enthusiasm that can only be rivaled by psychopaths and children's TV presenters.
I'm assuming they are more used to working in group settings for activities like Zumba and aerobics where the over abundance of congratulations might be warranted.. However in something that is supposed to be gentle movement, more along the lines of yoga or pilates, it seems completely out of place. Not to mention on a pre-recorded video, "Well Done!" and "You're doing so well!" become completely meaningless when you're just viewing ahead and are actually sat in a comfy chair in your bunny slippers eating a muffin.
All of which means, I am now dropping my three-star "I'm not sure" review down to a one-star, "I wish I hadn't wasted my money, if you really want to try, only take the single month to try it out" review.

Hi Mark, we are sorry to hear you are not getting the most from the program. We absolutely recognize that FB is not for all and we provide 2-4 zoom sessions per month in order to help our members succeed. You made a reference to the Zoom calls, but we have not seen you take advantage of them. The coaches regularly stay on calls for 30-60 minutes after to answer any questions and to check movements if requested.
The exercises in our programs are very gentle and meant to alleviate, not exacerbate issues. The fitness course is meant to be an extra benefit to our courses, but should not at all be mistaken for our courses. They are a tool for those who have gone through our courses with body awareness and wish to stay fit while getting back to the basics in their movement patterns.
Our coaches provide valuable and detailed feedback to confirm that the movements are being done with attention to details. If you are not willing to join FB, we ask that you make time to attend our Zoom events so that we can help guide your progress. We put many supports in place in order to ensure success, but we can only provide that guidance through interaction with our coaches and Dr. Mike. We'd love to help!
