Built by Women.
For Women.
Since 2000.

For more than 25 years, MoveStudio has been a place where women come together to move, grow stronger, and support one another. We believe fitness is about more than exercise. It's about building the strength, confidence, and connections that help us thrive at every stage of life.

Rooted in the Far North Dallas and Plano area since 2000, MoveStudio brings together experienced instructors, personalized attention, and a welcoming community where women of all ages and abilities feel supported, challenged, and inspired.

MoveStudio Story

Founded in October 2000, MoveStudio has been part of the North Dallas fitness and wellness community for more than 25 years. What began as a small, woman-owned studio has evolved into a welcoming space where people of all ages and abilities can build strength, improve mobility, and enjoy moving together.

Candace Bordelon, Ph.D., joined MoveStudio as a dance instructor in 2000 and grew alongside the studio, expanding her teaching into yoga, Pilates, fitness, and nutrition. In 2023, she became MoveStudio's third owner, relocating the studio to its current Far North Dallas location and bringing a renewed focus to women's health, particularly during midlife and beyond.

While MoveStudio has changed over the years, its foundation remains the same: exceptional instructors, personal attention, and a genuine sense of community. Today, we're proud to continue that legacy while helping women stay strong, active, and independent for years to come.

What Makes MoveStudio Different

Experienced Instructors. Personal Attention. Real Community.

MoveStudio isn't a big-box gym or a one-size-fits-all fitness studio. We're an independently owned boutique studio where experienced instructors know their craft, get to know their clients, and help you make the most of every class.

Expertise You Can Trust

Our instructors bring decades of experience and specialized training in yoga, Pilates, strength training, dance fitness, and women's health. We prioritize safe, effective movement and individualized guidance over fitness fads.


Everything You Need in One Place

Strength, mobility, cardiovascular fitness, and recovery all matter. Our diverse class schedule makes it easy to build a balanced fitness routine without juggling multiple studios or memberships.


A Community That Cares

At MoveStudio, you're more than a name on a class roster. Our welcoming community brings women together to encourage one another, build friendships, and stay motivated through every stage of life.

Candace Bordelon, Ph.D.

Owner | Movement Educator | Yoga, Pilates & Fitness Instructor

With more than 35 years of teaching experience, Candace Bordelon brings a lifelong passion for movement, education, and women's health to MoveStudio. Her background spans competitive gymnastics, professional dance, yoga, Pilates, fitness, and nutrition, giving her a broad understanding of how the body moves and changes throughout life.

Candace holds a Ph.D. in Dance Studies from Texas Woman's University, with extensive academic training in anatomy, physiology, and kinesiology. Combined with decades of hands-on teaching and multiple professional certifications, her education informs a practical, individualized approach to movement that emphasizes strength, mobility, balance, and long-term physical function.

Her teaching philosophy is also shaped by personal experience. Having navigated chronic back pain and hip replacement surgery, Candace understands firsthand the importance of adapting movement to meet the body's changing needs. She believes that exercise should help people feel better, move more confidently, and maintain the physical abilities that make everyday life enjoyable.

A member of the MoveStudio community since 2000 and its owner since 2023, Candace is especially passionate about helping women navigate midlife and beyond. Whether teaching Mat Pilates, yoga, or working individually with clients, her goal is to help people build strength, preserve independence, and discover what's possible at every stage of life.
