Help Launch Cascade Movement Center!
Donation protected
Hi, My name is Lesley. I am the founder of Cascade Movement Center (CMC) in McMinnville, OR.
I started CMC as a wellness center committed to sharing skills and resources to help my community experience the joy and healing power of movement for overall fitness and holistic health.
As a local personal trainer and yoga instructor with over 10 years of experience (and an outdoor loving mother of twins) I saw a need in McMinnville for a holistic wellness studio that supports and fosters community with a dynamic approach to exercise. Cascade Movement Center will be this space. It will be a place not only for gym nerds, but also for yoga lovers, outdoor enthusiasts, and families.
CMC will offer classes that support various health and wellness goals led by a talented community of local instructors.
We will start one-on-one personal training services and community group classes Monday, May 6th. We will continue to add offerings and services, eventually expanding our existing studio space later this year.
Funds raised will go towards the following:
- New flooring ($10,000)
- Various Equipment: Yoga/fitness mats (24), bolsters (24), chairs (12), steps (24), mobility ladders (2), pull up bars (2), rowing machines (2), suspension training systems (4) ($5,000)
- A harmonium and singing bowls for meditation classes and events ($1,000)
- Strength building equipment such as kettlebells, dumbbells, racks, resistance bands, and various mobility tools ($5,000)

Estimated Total Cost (Minus: Insurance, cleaning, management software, and utilities): $28,000

Cascade Movement Center will be a supportive and inclusive one-stop-shop for your fitness and health needs. We will offer classes for functional strength, conditioning, mobility, core, prenatal, as well as children's classes.
In addition, we will provide individualized one-on-one and small group services for locals and tourists.
We will partner with local nonprofits and businesses for our events to layer flora/fauna education and lunar/solar cycles into our experiences, when possible. Our offerings will change with the seasons and highlight ways to better connect with nature around us.
No donation amount is too small to make a difference.
Cascade Movement Center will be a wonderful success because of your on-going community support & engagement!
Please share the vision of CMC with your friends and family. Join us for classes or engage with our community, when possible. Together, we can make a positive difference for our community!
Thank you!
