I walk a lot and thought I was doing it quite well...until a dear friend gave me Movemate. It taught me more complete movement by having to use the feet, from heel to big toe pushoff, to move the pelvis more. This sends the movement up the spine that encourages counter-rotation easily and frees the head to look around!
It's a wonderful product and beautiful too. Even better, walking outside has become easier and even more enjoyable. Thank you, thank you, Jane

I have noticed that while working, I tend to put all my weight on my left foot, which is detrimental to my posture. With MoveMate, I am able to constantly switch my weight to the other foot, and it's amazing! When walking on the ground, I feel much more stable than before - it's like I've started using my entire foot to its full potential.
I read that doctors recommend working for 20 minutes sitting, 8 minutes standing, and 2 minutes doing exercises (and then repeating this cycle). I am currently following this advice (spending 8 minutes on MoveMate), and I really like it! It seems like a well-balanced work routine.
I also want to give a special thanks to Maya from the support team - she helped solve the problem of not having direct delivery to my country. I am very happy that MoveMate eventually reached me and is helping me lead a more active life!

Love this board! I especially enjoy standing on it during meetings to keep me from tapping my foot or being distracted by something else when I am on Zoom. Great addition to your standing work station.
James J.
I've finally found something that keeps me active and moving while at work. My low back feels more at ease and my hips more mobile. Even my ankles felt stronger from the arches being engaged. I love the MoveMate!
Julie E.
The movemate had been an excellent addition to my cube. I like using it as a foot massager/fidget toy throughout the day and standing/walking on it during meetings and woke watching training videos. Overall it's been fantastic!
Anjana .
Definitely worth the investment, miles ahead of anything on the market
Molly
Love this!
I like to switch it up during the day and this fits the bill! Fun and helps with my krinkly hip.
Bare foot or with shoes its just lovely.
I have had for a year use it daily.
Great addition to my WFH office

I wasn't really sure what I was looking for but knew that I wanted some kind of balance board that would prevent a static stance whilst working at my standing desk. Movemate seemed to be the perfect solution, as I was also looking for something with a touch of style. I've found that Movemate has significantly helped with stretching the ligaments in my feet and having suffered with Morton's neuroma due to narrow feet. My preference is to use Movemate bare footed to get the full benefit. A great find..well done guys, an excellent design.
Rachel G.
I am really pleased with my Movemate. I use it at my standing desk to stay active in my office throughout the day. It is also good to use sitting.
Vickie
The perfect companion to a stand-up desk! Love the added movement during the day and I feel less 'stiff' after the workday.
Isabelle L.
I like it! It’s good to help with step count and keep the blood flowing, definitely a great addition for a standing desk.
Udo S.
Movemate is always under my desk. Even if I don't actively and purposefully use it, just to rest my feet on the board and 'play' is so much better than resting the feet on the ground. Exercises on movemate help me with balance and agility.
Nic T.
Love being able to fidget and move while standing at my desk. Gives me unique ability to just move while standing still
Suzy M.
I do not use it as much as I should. It’s been great for my balance and for circulation in my legs.
Chris D.
trying it is adopting it
Best investment this year and beautiful wood work
Catherine B.
This is a wonderful team of two creative dedicated professionals.
The Movemate has been wonderful for my hips after spending years sitting at a desk.
I would highly recommend the Movemate to anyone - just to get us moving.
Matthew B.
Excellent product.

Movemate is excellent to fix muscle imbalances and improve flexibility in your lower legs. It helps to make you feel more stable and less prone to pain in your feet, knees, hips, back, neck, and shoulders. It's easy and fun!
Joannie L.
As a Certified Ergonomist, I’ve noticed that more people are transitioning to standing desks to help with their posture and reduce their pain while working at a computer for long periods.
To help encourage movement, I advocate alternating between sitting and standing every 30 minutes. However, I notice that when people are standing, they often lean onto their desks, shift their weight from one leg to the other, and rest into a hip. These prolonged stances can exert pressure on joints and create imbalances, leading to discomfort and pain.
Enter Movemate - an innovative and aesthetically pleasing solution. It eliminates the tendency to lean and helps strengthen the secondary muscles that support your primary muscles. This helps to sustain a more comfortable standing posture and avoid the pain and discomfort of being at a desk all day.
I love recommending this product to my clients because it works! I use it myself, and it has helped with my ankle issues and low back pain.
Aral T.
It’s hard to find time to keep my body moving with back-to-back sprint meetings and tasks
Especially while I’m still recovering from a ruptured Achilles, movement has been very limited to say the least. But that’s not an excuse for me to sit around and just wait.
Matthew L.
Movemate is great. It takes a little while to get used to it, but it beats the only real competitor (the Gymba) by a mile. Truly an innovative product that defines a new class of ergonomic balance boards.

Well constructed and designed. Recommended buy.
Lisa C.
My Movemate arrived well packed and ready to use. It is lower profile than I expected so it doesn’t add too much height when at a standing desk (I’m tall and my standing desk height is maxed so this was a worry). It is extremely user-friendly and I have been using it daily since I got it. It’s heavy and stable and seems well constructed. There is a slight squeak of wood against wood in some movements, but nothing loud or annoying and it might just be because it’s new. I’m very happy with this after a week of steady use - it let’s me add a variety of movement when standing which is exactly what I was looking for. I’m impressed!
Adelina M.
I *love* my Movemate. And all my coworkers are already jealous of it. Definitely recommend this if you work standing up, it feels great to move around and explore all the different stances.
Jaideep M.
My movemate is an integral part of my work from home set up, elevating my standing desk to something even more beneficial for me. While standing is much better than sitting and slouching, I found that the addition of the movemate allows me to get much needed movement and engagement in the various muscles in my body. The movemate is simple to use, looks great, and has helped me deal with tight leg muscles caused by prolonged sitting.
NICHOLAS G.
Price is maybe a little high, but the product is a great little piece of office furniture
Kim G.
I absolutely love my movemate! It is so comfortable and I don’t get fatigued from standing at my desk. It feels so natural and I love how many different combinations of moves you can make. I am heavy and I feel very sturdy; the craftsmanship is perfect. Shipping was fast and friendly and I loved the personal thank you note. An amazing company and an amazing product.
Robert S.
I can finally work standing up without discomfort! Being able to move so naturally while working is priceless and really helps counter the negative physical effects of having a desk-job. Movemate were also really helpful getting the board shipped internationally.
Ayobami O.
I've probably doubled how often I work while standing all thanks to the Movemate board. It's intuitive from the moment you step on, and you can help but smile as you simultaneously massage your feet while strengthening your feet and toes. It's an expensive product but would recommend
Steve C.
I wish I had this MoveMate years ago! Works fantastic especially with our new Mac Pro Stand that can adjust the height of the display and stand up desk. The MoveMate feels like an extension of my movement and completes the work space set up. I am already feeling the benefits and feel a good workout in the legs in core. Also great on the feet!
Epic innovative, sustainable product.
Riley M.
I’ve loved my experience with Movemate and the Movemate company. The product is well designed, helps me to strengthen my core and loosen up stiff muscles while working at my standing desk, and helps me focus better while I work (I have ADHD so being able to move and fidget while working helps my mind tune in). I get that it’s not for everybody, but if moving while working helps you focus, or you’re rehabbing a lower body injury, this thing is wonderful.
Gregor G.
In the pic, you can see my setup: I got two chairs and I can also lift my laptop/screen so I can stand in front of my screens. At the floor, you can see my MoveMate in front of my desktop.
When I'm not using it, I push it under the table and sit on one of my chairs. I rotate through the chairs, standing by myself, standing on my MoveMate all day (I also walk to and back from work for in sum 8km a day and do yoga at least twice a week). All of it helps me to manage my needed level of being active with my body. I'm going on 50 and I can tell ya, this is what I really need at this point.
Only switching through the chairs would not help. Only adding just standing would also not help. I need my MoveMate to extent how long I can stand in front of my desk.
(Also: the move on the MoveMate where you use your feet in all directions, combing moving left/right and back/forth, is close to the way I usually dance, so there I go practicing my dancing all day!)
Allison G.
I am a movement teacher and was excited to find something multidimensional for the body. Jenna Zaffino is a fellow movement teacher who I admire. I saw Move Mate on her IG feed and used her code to order it!
Angela H.
Super easy to use out of the box -- love that I can get in different movements so seamlessly
Maria I.
This is my second board (one was a present) and I loved them!
Catherine B.
After years of sitting at a desk it has left me with tight hip flexors. Movemate has encouraged me to get up and move, it has reduced stiffness in my hips and improved my mobility.
Victor G.
Super happy with the purchase. A bit pricy but worth it. I use it daily and will keep using it more and more. Standing while working on the computer got better than ever.
Anna H.
I use movemate now for about 2 weeks at my office. I love it, cause it gets me up on my feet more often. All my collueges love to use it to...it's fun
Tawni S.
Usually I stand for awhile intermittently to work and when I do I get sore. Movemate has definitely reduced the pain and extended the length of time I stand!!!! Worth every penny!!!
Miranda C.
MoveMate is a beautiful and functional piece of artistry! I love how it feels on my bare feet and it is fun to experiment with all the different types of movement you can do on this board.
Jennifer C.
I absolutely love my Movemate! I was hesitant at first given the price but as an accountant I have a very sedentary life and have been looking for ways to incorporate movement into my day. Movemate is the perfect product to help with this, very much worth the investment
Deniz C.
I love it, wish it was more affordable though. And more silent: ) It's making creaky sounds, and it's just been 2 weeks that I got it.
Patrick P.
Very comfortable and fun to use, like the many different ways it can be maneuvered !
Peter W.
Well done! It''s fucking amazing!
Simone M.
I love it. It's easy and intuitive to use. It feels like a foot massage. It's beautiful (saying this because I am a woodworker), it's mostly made from natural materials. I feel more motivated to stand at my desk with the balance board than without it, so it's a double plus for me. Less time sitting AND a bit of extra movement because of the balance board. The one downside: I had it at home for a few days and my kids loved it so much that it caused some drama when I finally took it to the office. They practiced their surf and dance moves on it like there was no tomorrow.
Alison D.
I was lucky to get a quick shipment of my movemate to the UK. The customer service team were responsive and helpful.
I ordered the movemate because I was getting a lot of back pain sitting at a desk all day. Since it arrived, I've used it every single day, for several hours at a time and my back has been great.
I would highly recommend.
Roger C.
I thought that being a large guy could have been a problem but everything works perfectly. The texture is great on bare feet and the continuous movement at my standing desk is superb. Heartily recommended.
Christine B.
Using it has been making my back feel so much better while at work.
Harvey W.
It gives you the flexibility to move your feet in different directions.
Sarah H.
This board is everything I hoped it would be. I have a desk riser at work and just standing was not comfortable. I came across movemate and was hesitant because of the price point. However, it is worth every penny. The way the board moves feels like how I was trying to move when I was just standing. It’s so easy to use and seems to help relieve pain and reduce fatigue.
The only thing I’m having to get used to is my bare feet directly on wood. My feet feel a little raw sometimes… but they do recommend starting off using it for small amount of time to get used to it. I don’t see that as anything against the board, just something to get used to since I like to stay on it for longer periods of time.
Highly recommend this board!
Christine
Using it has been making my back feel so much while at work.
Sara G.
I bought this lovely object after my wife shared and Instagram video of it. I saw a therapist had been using it for somatic trauma work, so as a therapist in a community where historical trauma is the basis need of healing I was even more curious. I metwith him virtually and fell I love with what this product could do.
To this date I've only used it with myself, my wife who is neurodovergent, 1 client and 3 coworkers. Everyone is amazed.
To be continued..
Devon M.
Love it!! As soon as I'd had a day to play with it, I was recommending it to all my friends with standing desks. I love how natural the movement feels, and being able to shift around makes it easier to stand for longer and helps me stay focused through boring tasks that are a struggle when I'm stuck in a chair. Makes me wish I had more than one work-from-home day a week to use it!
Will C.
Amazing craftsmanship! Engaging founders!
Kai B.
Honestly I love it. It’s an easy and fun way to increase activity while working or just watching TV. Solid craftsmanship as well.
Esma M.
I didnt want to buy a treadmill for my standing desk because its not easy to concentrate while working… this allows you to move while you work, easy to use and playful… the only downside is: I do not wear my shoes at home and after 15 min it starts to hurt my foot moving my foot helps but still at some point i need to get off
Udo S.
I have MoveMate for more than 1/2 year now. Often I keep the board under my desk so the feet rest on it. Without focusing on it the feet move and therefore stay active. It also helps with my posture while sitting in front of the computer.
I also use MoveMate in addition to my Tonal equipment, doing workouts while standing on the board. It adds an extra complexity and fun to the exercises.
Chuck B.
I'm very pleased with my purchase. Knowing there would be a delay, Movemate was very transparent with their timeline and communication. Once received, I have been very impressed with the functionality and quality of this board. I ruptured my Achilles in December and this board has been a fantastic addition to my rehabilitation therapy.
Will
Amazing craftsmanship!
Engaging founders!
Summer J.
Being a health-conscious (and fidgety person), I needed to find a way to decrease sedentary time spent working full time at a desk - that wouldn’t disrupt my workflow. Movemate is the perfect solution!
Mark N.
1000% highly recommend. I do wish it was more challenging, but I also understand the whole point is to make it thoughtless to use during work... Other than that, fantastic product, well built, top notch customer service, exceeded all expectations!!
Kirsten H.
In german: Super toll verarbeitetes Balanceboard. Damit will man eigentlich nur noch stehen beim Arbeiten.
Jenny P.
I like the way it feels on my feet. But I don’t feel I get much movement out of it on my carpet which is where I stand for work. Side to side is fine but if I want to move each foot in a back and forth action there isn’t much movement. It also moves all over the place on carpet and I have to constantly stop and move it back.
Jake V.
I recently received the movemate as a gift from my wife, Debby, and I have been using it every day since. I must say, it has been a game-changer for me. As someone who spends most of their day sitting in front of a computer, I often experience discomfort in my legs and back.
I can't imagine not using this board now that I have it. It has become an essential part of my daily routine, and I am grateful to my wife for getting it for me. Highly recommend giving it a try. Your body will thank you!
Sophia M.
Fantastic product! As an avid paddle boarder (and someone that works long hours), this product is such a joy to use.
Alexander C.
Great way to keep moving during zoom meetings! I move more every work day now.

This board is great! It really helps you being easy while working.

Wonderful activation from the bottom of the foot up! As a ballet coach I’m always looking for ways to activate and integrate the ground up connection. Awesome product!
Joseph S.
The board is amazing! I love it. Makes standing fun!
Ashley T.
I absolutely love my MoveMate! It arrived a few days ago and is exactly what I expected and more. The customer service has also been fantastic. Highly recommend this product and company! Happy moving!
Alex
Great way to keep moving during zoom meetings! I move more every work day now.
Mara D.
I work in one of the most iconic office buildings in the world...Frank Lloyd Wright's SC Johnson building in Racine, Wi. While his mid-century design for set for the future, ergonomics wasn't his #1 priority. With my Movemate I can flex, move and have less body aches from sitting at a desk all day. My acupuncturist was even jealous about my Movemate.
Taylor B.
I love this! I use a desk treadmill at home but cannot take it to work so I tried the Movemate and it works great! I love all of the different ways I can move on it to change up the muscles I am using and the level of movement. I have sensory issues and need to stim to focus and calm the overwhelm that comes from the work environment. The Movemate allows me to get good sensory input on my feet and vary my movement to stim. I wanted something sustainable and natural rather than plastic so for that, it is worth the high price. I can easily type with any movement (except the swivel, clearly). I cannot sit to work any longer and only standing in one spot makes my legs hurt so being able to shift and move in various ways has taken away the discomfort and helped me focus. I can be on it for hours without discomfort. When someone comes into my office I often half sit on the side of my desk so I am not standing while they sit and I can continue to move and rock my feet in that position. If I have to say any complaint, it is that it does shift a little but it does not take more than a moment to adjust.
Morgan S.
What a brilliant addition to my work from home set up!! I feel more active during my day and even more attentive and focused!
Christina T.
This is better than my old treadmill desk! I can use it while on calls, I can use it under my desk while sitting, I can move it around if I'm sitting somewhere different for a day, and it doesn't take much space. I have fun doing different movements.
Hadi A.
I like movemate, I just wish it can move more.
Shahzad J.
That it allows you to balance building strength thru instability with being stable is a game changer. Makes it sustainable long run. Seems easy to do and is so fools you into thinking it's too easy, but do it for a while and you can feel the work out when you get off. Great for ankle strength for mountaineering and hiking etc. Highly recommend.
Ross W.
I was lucky to get my hands on a MoveMate when they first became available. I was reluctant at first as I am 61 years old and I thought it was just a little out of my league. I am glad I rethought the whole thing because I absolutely love it. It is a little steep price-wise, but for me, it ended up being worth every penny as I use it almost daily. I wish I had had it before I retired from work, as I was working in call centres throughout most of my career and was always tethered while sitting at a desk. I don't always stand when I am at my desk now at home, but when I do I am on the MoveMate. Sometimes I just get on it and go for a spin anyway. I have zero regrets, if you are on the fence, "go for it" is my advice. You are not going to be sorry. Kudos to the MoveMate people, you have an amazing product. :-)
Qhalisa K.
As a professional who spends most of her day at a desk, but also loves the gym, the Movemate has been absolutely necessary in providing me the balance I require to keep me moving while I work. My muscle recovery after heavy gym lifts, and energy levels are significantly improved, not to mention the added bonus of how much better it feels not to sit for 8 hours continuously! On days that I actively use my Movemate, I feel a noticeable difference in posture, lower back pain and muscle stiffness/soreness. The Movemate has become a staple in my work environment and I can't imagine my days without it!
NIMET
I was gifted this product by my brother. I have varicose veins and due to this have blood circulation issues in my legs and since I have started using this product it’s been such a blessing! My blood circulation has improved so much. It is very user friendly. Besides using it as part of my daily exercise routine I use it at work too and really helps to keep my blood circulating when standing for long. I love how versatile it is and I can move it around easily wherever I need to use it. I would recommend this to anyone anytime ! Thank you for this superb innovation!
Nahida B.
Love my MoveMate!
Sepehr A.
Having just gotten a standing desk, I already start to feel why this is such a necessary addition to my setup, without the move mate I find myself in bad posture and just wanting to eventually sit back down but with the move mate I can stand for longer while having my posture be straight and just that bit of activity almost makes me more productive and engaged in what I’m doing, not to mention my feet feel amazing, like they just became cushions all of a sudden
Alex D.
I’ve always liked to move when I’m working and have tried maaaaany different foam standing pads, or active mats but MoveMate has been an absolute game changer for me. I got it in the summer of 2022 and have been absolutely loving it!
Not only is it great for staying active during work, but it has also been helping me recover from some injuries as well. My physio found I don’t distribute my weight evenly across both legs, and it’s really hard to notice on flat ground. When I’m standing on the MoveMate I can really feel the weight distribution and it has been helping me even it out which has been helping my body recover as well. Awesome product
Bob J.
This is the best thing to ever happen to a standing desk! absolutely love it! anyone looking to elevate your desk experience and reduce body pains, I highly recommend giving this a try!
Adrien B.
I had the best customer experience ever with a very efficient customer team. The Movemate looks really durable and as I've been suffering from knee problems increasing with homeoffice, it's helping a lots. I took a lots of time to compare the different boards for standing desk and the movemate is definitely the best. Thanks !!!

Sherry S.
I am 62 years old, 5 foot tall and look nothing like the young fit instructor on your video. I also and spend way too much time sitting at my desk. On impulse I picked up a desktop converter, not even sure I'd use it, since my standing desk I have in office as part of Bloomberg LP's software Engineering team goes way underused. Still, sitting is clearly taking a toll and I am ridiculously stiff when finally get up. Maybe with a good standing mat, I thought I'd actually raise the desk at home. I started to look around, fell straight down the rabbit hole and found the MoveMate at the end.
I almost talked myself out of the splurge, but the since I could try for 30 days and return, I went with it. I am so glad I did. It feels great to stand on the MoveMate. I have begun standing a couple of hours a day. I get much less stiff. This especially feels great barefoot.
I wish I could afford a second for the office, but I am glad I have one for home! I would recommend that anyone take these guys up on their trial. Just don't expect to send the board back.
Jennifer C.
I love the Movemate board! It allows my body to move at my desk while working and my hips are now less stiff from using it. I was previously in physical therapy and with PT and the continued use of Movemate, my hips are much more mobile and in less pain. The customer service was excellent and they offered a video demonstration on how to use it.
Imran J.
After about a week of using it, I can tell I'm inclined to stand up more frequently then before, making my stand up desk useful again. Once I'm on the board, I find it to be helpful for inspiring fun and active movement. I would highly recommend this to anyone who works from a desk.
