The 2010 Tour

Posted by krashnik On February - 13 - 2010

It’s been awhile since you’ve seen an update here at the personal site.  We’ve completely revamped the entire MOVFitness.com website and turned it into a thriving social network.  This was in preparation for our next movement: The Tour or 2010.  I traveled among over 20 states during 2009 and have already been across the country once for the new year.  But this doesn’t compare to the all out tour scheduled for 2010.  Below you can see travel dates and the cities I’ll be in. 

In these cities, I will be hosting dance workshops at various ballroom studios and also be giving corporate wellness seminars at Fortune 500 corporations. 

To learn more about each, I’d advise to check out my videos on both.

Looking forward to teaching others about health, fitness, dance, and business.  It’s been a pleasure building our business into the empire it now is.  We have plans to extend our travel into Asia for 2011.

Ballroom Yoga

Posted by krashnik On January - 30 - 2009


One DVD for 2009 is complete with MOVFitness.  Ballroom Yoga: Alignment & Technique for Ballroom Dancers was just filmed this week with MOVFitness instructor Christina Castelanelli.  This DVD introduces a sequence of Anusara poses to ballroom dancers and helps them understand and develop better alignment while in dips and frame.

Filmed in picturesque Santa Barbara with the American Riveria and the Pacific Ocean as backdrops, MOVFitness is known for bringing beautiful fitness videos where proceeds benefit local charties.

I am glad to have the opportunity to work with Christina on this project.  As a ballroom coach for years, it has always been a concern to me when working with professional dancers that they don’t have proper alignment.  Practicing this series can give a dancer confidence that they can be streamlined while in correct form.  I’m excited to be a part of this project and hope it is accepted well among the ballroom dancing community.

Ballroom DVDs

Posted by krashnik On January - 12 - 2009

Many of our DVDs are for Ballroom Dancers or fitness professionals. After publishing books, calendars, and websites for so long, I decided it was time to expand into DVDs.  I’m really happy to be able to offer this to the ballroom community.  I am heavily involved in the creation of all of these videos.  They will have a nice blend of fitness, ballroom dancing, and whichever speciality the teacher brings to the picture.

Ballroom Dancing

Here’s a video of Erica Colvin & I doing a foxtrot.

I’m a professional ballroom dancer. I’d love to learn other forms of dance. Please contact me if you want to trade styles – I’m always interested in learning new things.
