Founder Story
Movement Designed to Feel Good was born out of a deep desire to disrupt the wellness industry and current fitness practices and replace some of the more toxic and shame based fear tactics with compassion, heart, and joy. In lieu of seeing your body as a problem to solve, we create a container for you to enjoy and tap into the expansiveness, strength, and positivity that is possible with an intentional and conscious movement community. Building community and radical self compassion is at the heart of MDTFG. Charlotte uses her 20+ years of professional movement experience and unmatched energy as a catalyst for creating positive wellness experiences. She believes that her students deserve to feel good, in the body they already have and has tried to impart this throughout her teaching and performance career.
Lolita San Miguel, Pilates Elder
"Charlotte knows the work. She has an energized, experienced, and pleasant teaching style. Charlotte has a good eye. Many teachers look, but they don’t see. Charlotte looks and she sees, which is what distinguishes her as a knowledgeable teacher."
