At iMoveFor, our journey begins with lived experience across borders — shaped by years of working in the development sector in different continents, across public health, policy, and community engagement. Through this path, one truth remained constant: the workplace is more than just where we work — it's where we live, grow, connect, and often struggle. Today’s professional environments are facing a quiet epidemic. According to the World Health Organization (2021), sedentary lifestyles at workplaces are directly linked to a 20–30% increased risk of cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, and certain cancers. In parallel, mental health challenges are rising — with 1 in 2 working adults globally likely to experience a mental health condition in their lifetime (World Economic Forum, 2023). We believe that the workplace is our extended community — a space where connection, trust, and belongingness are not luxuries, but essentials. As the World Economic Forum highlights, the #1 predictor of employee wellbeing isn’t free coffee or yoga mats — it’s a deep sense of connection and belonging at work. Movement is our response. Not just as exercise, but as a science-backed catalyst for mental clarity, emotional balance, and social connection. Research from Harvard Medical School and the Canadian Mental Health Association (CMHA) shows that even 20 minutes of light movement can significantly reduce stress hormones, boost mood, and improve interpersonal engagement. Shared movement at work — walks, stretch breaks, or mindful motion — creates more than health: it builds relationships, empathy, and shared culture. With this belief, iMoveFor was created — to help organizations and communities reconnect with the power of movement for impact. We support workplaces in integrating behaviorally informed movement routines, embedding wellness policies, and cultivating environments where people don’t just work — they thrive. Our name is our call to action: iMoveFor Focus. Growth. Trust. Wellbeing. Impact. Join us in reimagining the workplace — as a place of health, human connection, and shared momentum.
