Stuck?
Growth is a marathon. Is your team equipped for the race?
While you juggle customers, investors, strategy, hiring and the next stage of growth, your team keeps the business moving.
What quietly fades under long hours, tight deadlines and constant change isn't commitment.
It's the energy, creativity and connection that helped your company grow in the first place.
Sustainable performance isn't built through occasional workshops, team events or after-work drinks.
Dance!
Is your working environment as innovative as your business idea?
Make your office days worth the commute - where people can destress, recharge, clear minds and connect. For a shift in energy they feel immediately.
Embedded, not added
Runs inside standups, all-hands, planning and retros. Zero new calendar blocks.
Inspiration, not competition
Structured movement for those who want it when they need it — no skills required.
Strategic, not random
Designed to strengthen identified capacities needed to deliver and have fun under pressure.
Really?
Just five minutes of dance-based incubation significantly improved creative performance.
Yes, really. Dance is the fastest lever for performance.
Moving to music and rhythm does magic. It reduces stress faster than a walk around the block, resets attention more effectively than caffeine, resolves mental blocks faster than a whiteboard, and rebuilds trust between people faster than a two-day offsite.
Not because it's fun — although it is — but because dance activates more of the brain than any other work activity.

MOVING PEOPLE. BUILDING MOMENTUM.
For the past 20 years, I've helped business leaders navigate growth and change—most recently leading Communications for Roche's new Digital Health business.
Dance has shaped my life for almost 40 years, keeping me resilient, creative and connected.
As my career progressed, finding time to recharge became harder—even though I needed it more than ever.
That inspired MoveMentum Works: bringing movement into everyday work to help teams recharge, think differently and perform at their best.
Based in Northwest Switzerland · Region Basel.
Strategic communication meets 40 years of dance.
- Business impact at the core
- MBA with Startup Focus
- your Sparring partner at eye level
- Zero organisational overhead
Questions?
- Movementum embeds short, movement-based interventions into your team's daily routine. It activates energy, focus and creative capacity — without adding meetings to already full calendars.
- Yes, really. Movement — not performance dance — is the fastest way to shift group energy, reset attention and rebuild connection between people. Two to seven minutes is enough. Teams that move together think together.
That's perfectly okay. The goal isn't to turn everyone into dancers — it's to create experiences that energise, reconnect and inspire people in a way that feels natural.
Most teams become surprisingly engaged after just one session. If dancing isn't the right fit for your culture or a particular group, we can design alternative formats such as artistic performances, inspirational talks, breathing and mobility sessions, or movement-based stress reduction. Together, we'll create a program that fits your people and your company culture.
We define your challenges, priorities and objectives together — I'll take care of everything else.
From understanding your organisation and designing tailored modules to selecting the right dance professionals, coordinating the programme, facilitating the sessions and measuring the impact, I manage the entire process from start to finish. Your internal workload stays minimal.
Every programme starts with a baseline and ends with an evaluation.
Depending on your objectives, we measure outcomes through team pulse surveys, engagement indicators, eNPS or other agreed success metrics before and after the programme. You'll receive a clear summary of the results to help communicate the value and business impact internally.
The concept itself is new. To my knowledge, no organisation has yet integrated movement and dance into everyday work in this way.
What isn't new is the expertise behind it. MoveMentum Works combines nearly 20 years of experience in strategic communications, employee engagement, leadership communication and change management with almost 40 years of dance experience. The programme is also grounded in scientific research on movement, cognition, creativity, stress reduction and team dynamics.
That's exactly why I offer an Experience Day.
It's an opportunity to explore different modules in a low-risk format and discover what resonates best with your team. As an early adopter, you'll benefit from a discounted first-mover package while helping shape this new approach together.
The standard program runs for three months, which is typically enough time to establish new habits and observe meaningful changes.
Every organisation is different, so programs can be shorter or longer depending on your goals, priorities and budget.
Movement has no boundaries — and neither do the possibilities.
I've curated a portfolio of movement-based formats designed to strengthen energy, creativity, cognitive performance, team dynamics and cultural connection in everyday work.
Examples include:
- Reset modules with breathing, stretching, shaking and gentle movement to reduce stress and restore focus.
- Energy boosters such as Cuban dance animations during lunch breaks or before all-hands meetings.
- Brain activation exercises using coordination and movement before strategy sessions, brainstorming workshops or sprint planning.
- Team-building experiences including line dancing, flash mobs or collaborative choreography for offsites and company events.
- Performance pop-ups that surprise and inspire employees in the office or at internal events.
- Cultural experiences, where professional artists share the history and traditions behind different dance styles before inviting participants to join a simple movement session.
Every program is tailored to your organisation. Whether your goal is to recharge teams during periods of intense growth, strengthen collaboration, support change initiatives or make office days worth showing up for, we'll design a solution that fits your people, culture and business priorities.
- It can be as little as five to fifteen minutes per working day, embedded where your team already meets. No offsites, no extra calendar blocks, no productivity trade-off. Of course this can be adjusted according to your needs and wishes.
- All three. The system is designed for Northwest Switzerland and the Basel region on-site, and works equally well for hybrid and fully remote scale-up teams across Europe.
- Higher daily energy, sharper focus in meetings, and a visible lift in team dynamics and retention. Founders typically report faster decision-making and a return of the playfulness they had before scaling.
