👋 Swipe to meet Michael and David - the dynamic duo leading the Movement Plano team!
Michael is our newest addition to the DFW leadership team (despite working here for a full year this month)! Originally from Boston, this girl dad of 2 daughters is a huge sports enthusiast who loves basketball, football, and baseball. Around here, we also know Michael to be a top-tier vest connoisseur 🦺
David started climbing in 2017 (actually with our friends @movementgymsdmv!) and has been passionate about fitness well before that - he even used to manage our fitness program! This Maryland native is a proud pet dad to 3 huskies and 2 cats. When he`s not connecting with members at the front desk (his favorite part of the job!), you might catch him playing lacrosse or coaching the JP LAX team!
Both of these guys are super friendly and love to chat - so next time you see `em in the gym, don`t be shy, say hi! 😁

If we learned anything last year during the Games, it was that speed climbing is the future of the sport. That’s why we’re excited to announce that as of today, April 1, all of our DFW locations have been completely converted into speed climbing-only facilities! ⚡️⚡️
Why spend 3 hours projecting all sorts of routes when you could climb the same route 557 times in that timeframe? Efficiency is key. No more agonizing over choosing a route - just the pure joy of doing the exact same movements over and over again, but faster!
These changes impact not only our rope walls, but bouldering as well - because if you’re grabbing holds other than the speed holds - why? To support this transition, all yoga classes will now play the speed timer beeps as background music for the entire duration of class 🩵
The future is speed, and the future is now. In 2025 - we’re swapping variety for velocity. #SpeedIsAllYouNeed #MovementGyms

Last week, we welcomed @usaclimbing National Team Head Coach, Josh Larson, to collab with our DFW setting team to creating all new training routes for our local Elite climbers!
As some of these athletes (peep @annie.climbs.sanders 👀) prep for the upcoming IFSC World Cup season - these climbs will be instrumental to their training plan!
These things are HARD (seriously - some of the hardest climbs we’ve ever had in the gym). We can’t wait to watch our local crushers works on these (and a full round of WC style boulders, also at Plano!) this spring!
Thanks for hanging out, Josh 👊
