Hello, wonderful community!

It’s with immense excitement and a heart full of purpose that I officially introduce DGH Moves – a vision born from years of dedication to movement, resilience, and the belief that true well-being encompasses far more than just physical fitness.

You might know me, Damaris Galdames-Hough, from a spin bike, a Pilates mat, or perhaps from my past as the owner and lead instructor at Chivo Cycle, where I poured my energy into leading up to 15 classes a week. My expertise is built on diverse and rigorous training, including Matrix Ride CXP, The Method by Kristina Girod, Playlist to Waitlist by Lia Marley, along with certifications in Barre Bootcamp, Fat Burning Pilates, and more. Or perhaps, from my professional background in Human Resources, a field where I honed skills in communication, problem-solving, and truly understanding people’s journeys. Each step, every challenge, and every success in these diverse roles has culminated in this moment, in the creation of DGH Moves.

Why DGH Moves? Why now?

My path here is deeply personal. Through my own experiences, navigating life’s complexities as part of a blended family, and enjoying every adventure with my two beloved dogs, I’ve come to understand that movement is a powerful catalyst for not just physical health, but for mental fortitude and emotional resilience. This understanding truly solidified my desire to create something that offers comprehensive support and flexible options, moving beyond the traditional studio walls.

This is precisely why “Thriving Beyond the Diagnosis” is an integral part of DGH Moves. This blog is where I share reflections, insights, and inspirations on navigating life’s challenges, building inner strength, and truly thriving, no matter what comes your way. It’s a space where we explore the mindset that empowers us to complement our physical movement with profound personal growth.

So, what is DGH Moves?

DGH Moves is about empowering your journey forward. We’re breaking free from conventional settings to bring fitness and coaching directly to you:

• Dynamic Outdoor Classes: Harnessing the energy of the open air for invigorating workouts.
• Mobile Cycling Fleet: Bringing high-energy private cycling events directly to your chosen location.
• Personalized Coaching: Guiding you through bespoke programs tailored to your unique goals.

This isn’t just about exercise; it’s about fostering a community where every “move” you make, whether on a bike, in nature, or in your mindset, propels you toward a more vibrant and thriving life. My background, including an MBA and extensive HR experience, underpins DGH Moves with strategic thinking and a deep understanding of what it takes to support individuals comprehensively.

I invite you to explore DGH Moves, read the stories and insights on “Thriving Beyond the Diagnosis,” and join me in building a life where movement isn’t just a routine, but a powerful tool for resilience and joy.

Let’s move forward, together!

Warmly,

Damaris Galdames-Hough Founder, DGH Moves
