About this gym
Movement Collective was started by local fitness professionals hoping to foster their independent businesses by sharing space and working together. Sam and Brian both began their journey of conscious movement by training in Shaolin Kung Fu under Sifu Joseph Meissner. Brian started his own gym called Cypress Fitness and Sam took over operations of New Orleans Shaolin, the martial arts school; together they envisioned a single location that could house both businesses and foster cooperation, mutual benefit, and lower overhead. As the idea grew, they opened the space up to more businesses and found a location in Downtown New Orleans. Movement Collective does not run its own public classes. Instead, it is a co-working facility: independent trainers, group-class instructors, and wellness practitioners (e.g. New Orleans Shaolin, Cypress Fitness, People's Community Acupuncture Collective, Recovery Dharma, Foxhole Fitness, Crescent City Combat) rent the gym, studio, or yard to run their own client sessions and classes under their own brands and schedules.
