Your Coaches

Robin Taylor, Founder & Head Coach

I have always been passionate about the power physical movement has on our wellbeing. Being active is a central component of who I am and it has helped me navigate the negative physical effects that life can have on our bodies.

After having two children, the impact of movement became more important…and more complicated. The old methods of “working out” just didn’t work with my changed body and my training sessions left me feeling demoralized and frustrated. I was experiencing what lots of women go through after baby: stress incontinence, diastasis recti and debilitating low back pain.

Determined to heal my own body and get back to feeling good, I began an iterative process of education, testing and good, old-fashioned trial-and-error on my own body. I learned to heal my pelvic floor dysfunction, repair my core and get out of pain once and for all. The positive and lasting impact of evidence-based, high-quality, consistent movement, coupled with a desire to help others move and feel better, inspired me to create MVMNT Studio.

This is your safe place to heal, get strong and never look back.

Coach Mikayla holds a BS in Kinesiology from San Diego State University. Her passion for coaching began after a life-altering car accident and spending months in a wheel chair relearning how to walk. She understands the disconnection that can happen within our bodies after an injury or when dealing with chronic pain. Mobility, corrective exercise, strength building and core reconnection are her specialities.
