❤️ CAMP ME 2026 — THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART ❤️

As I sit and reflect on the 2026 Camp ME Dance Retreat, my heart is completely full. What we experienced this weekend was so much more than a dance retreat. It was connection, growth, laughter, friendship, courage, and so many unforgettable memories. 🏕️❤️

To our incredible instructors — thank you for sharing your talent, knowledge, stories, and hearts with our dancers. You gave them so much more than choreography. You inspired them, challenged them, encouraged them, and reminded them why they fell in love with dance in the first place. I am beyond grateful for each of you.

A very special thank you to Mikayla and Vega for everything you brought to Camp ME. Your love, energy, support, and dedication helped make this weekend so incredibly special. We could not have done it without you. ❤️

And to the Camp ME parents — THANK YOU. Thank you for trusting us with your dancers, believing in what we are building, and supporting this crazy little dream of ours. Your support means more to me than you know. Thank you for allowing your kids to step outside their comfort zones, disconnect from the noise, and experience something truly different.
And finally, my deepest and most special thank you goes to my wife, Christine. ❤️

Christine, thank you for standing beside me through every idea, every challenge, every late night, every detail, and every crazy Camp ME moment. None of this would be possible without you. You believe in this dream as much as I do, and I am forever grateful to have you by my side.

To our 2026 Camp ME family — thank you for making this weekend unforgettable. I hope every dancer left with a little more confidence, a little more courage, and a whole lot of love for dance and for themselves.
This is why we do Camp ME. ❤️

Escape. Train. Evolve.

Until next year… 🏕️✨
With so much gratitude,
Eddie

“Physical fitness is the first requisite of happiness.” — Joseph Pilates

Having a Pilates practice lets me say YES to so many other things. 🥰

Because when you feel good in your body it’s easier to do good, not just for yourself but also for the people and the world around you. 🌍

Do Pilates, Do Life better ☺️. ✨

We don’t train just to get better at exercise. We train to get better at LIFE. 💪

Pilates + strength training keep me strong, mobile, curious, and ready to say YES to moments like this.

Move well. Stay strong. Keep playing. 🩵💫☺️

POV: You go to the supermarket after dance class just to grab a few things… and somehow it turns into a Michael Jackson music video. 😂🛒🎶

My wife and I cannot be taken anywhere after 10PM. 🤦🏻‍♂️😂

When “Man in the Mirror” hits, apparently the ice cream aisle becomes a stage.

You can’t take us anywhere. And yes… we REALLY love Michael Jackson. 😂🕺🏻❤️

ONE NIGHT ONLY—LET’S KICK OFF OUR NEW SEASON TOGETHER! 🔥

In Movement is honored to welcome legendary dancer, choreographer, director and mentor EDDIE GARCIA to Palm Desert for an unforgettable master class!

Eddie was hand-picked by Michael Jackson, beginning with “Smooth Criminal.” He went on to perform in “The Way You Make Me Feel” and “Speed Demon,” followed by five years on Michael Jackson’s record-breaking Bad and Dangerous world tours. His extraordinary career also includes credits with Janet Jackson, Jennifer Lopez, Paula Abdul, Mariah Carey, Ariana Grande and many more.

This is more than a dance class—it is a rare opportunity to learn from an artist whose work helped shape pop-performance history. Eddie brings decades of professional stage, screen, touring, choreography and directing experience into the room, and we cannot wait for our dancers and community to experience it.

We invite dancers throughout the Coachella Valley and beyond to join us, support this exciting kickoff class and help us begin the new In Movement season with incredible energy. Let’s show Eddie how strongly our desert dance community supports world-class training! 💜
