MOVE’s Supported Therapeutic Exercise Program (STEP) provides supported therapeutic exercise and access to adapted equipment to individuals in the community who need support to exercise.

STEP includes the development of individualized exercise programs, full access to MOVE’s specialized gym equipment, one-on-one therapy by a registered Kinesiologist or Athletic Therapist, group exercise programs, and support from trained staff and volunteers.

Once an initial assessment has been completed by our Kinesiologist or Athletic Therapist, an exercise program tailored to your needs and abilities will be created. Financial assistance is available to those who qualify.

Online services include:

• Customized Exercise Programs (includes two personalized and unique workouts)

• Video Conferencing Consultation With Our Certified Athletic Therapist/ Kinesiologist

How do I apply for financial assistance?

MOVE offers financial assistance to those who qualify, all of our subsidies are first come first serve. As we have a limited number, our subsidies are 6 months in duration then the member needs to re-apply. Members must agree to coming at least once/week in order to keep the subsidy. We have a waiting list for subsidies therefore after 6 months you will need to re-apply and then be on the waiting list. This way more people will have access to the subsidies.

Our application can be found HERE. Along with our application MOVE requires your most recent notice of assessment or personal tax return, BC care card and proof of current Victoria residency. Please bring all necessary documents to your initial assessment.

What are your COVID-19 safety precautions?

MOVE is running by appointment only at this time, as well as following all guidelines from Provincial health authorities with strict procedures in place to ensure all members, staff and volunteers are safe and healthy. This includes mandatory masks, temperature and health checks prior to every appointment and an increase in cleaning and sanitization of all equipment.
