Pop culture is part of our heritage. The challenge is to raise the stakes and add to its legacy instead of recycling it. Co-founded by French journalist David Benaym and performer Danny Tidwell (American Ballet Theatre, So You Think You Can Dance, Memphis on Broadway) in 2006 for the fashion-forward, arts-oriented and socially conscious web 2.0 generation, Movmnt Magazine aspires to bridge the gap between pop culture and today’s real talent, and recognize artists over fame junkies.

From high fashion to maintstream to urban brands, Movmnt is a credible way to reach trend-setting (and trend-following) buyers as well as a powerful consumer group that mainstream magazines do not reach. For dance related advertisers, Movmnt is selective in our advertising. Our magazine focuses on broad content over every genre of dance, yet highlights specific advertisers. Your visual marketing will not get lost in Movmnt. Movmnt maintains a close relationship with both major and independent music labels. In an age driven by technology, we are seen on MySpace, Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Flickr, Digg, Delicious, our own network movmnt.net and more Web 2.0 exclusives. The growing Movmnt team of editors, writers, columnists, graphic desiners, photographers, stylists and contributors hail from all over the world and from publications such as The New York Times, Vogue, Vanity Fair, InStyle, Dig, L’Officiel, L’Uomo and L’Optimum.

MRMagazine.com Innovation In Print: David Benaym and Movmnt Magazine June 9, 2009 “David Benaym’s latest issue was anything but normal. He opted for a magazine that folds out to be a poster. His reasons are simple: the economic crisis and the environmental crisis. His solutions were to reduce the size of the magazine for this issue, try to reinvent the publication and save both on money and trees.”
Marcy shinder (american express open forum) A Philosophy Of Reinvention May 19, 2009 “David focused on his brand. Movmnt is about dance and pop culture as a lifestyle – not publishing. He communicates this via the graphic chart and visuals throughout the magazine. He redesigned his web site and made sure to keep the visual identity of movmnt.com consistent with dedicated pages on social networking sites like Twitter, Facebook, MySpace and YouTube.”

RE: bottles Movmnt Magazine is launching a new campaign in partnership with dance studios, conventions, competitions, and festivals to help bring awareness to our daily habits that pollute the Earth. As members of the artistic community, we have the duty to lead by example and stop using plastic bottles like Kleenex. We can refresh ourselves and recycle with one simple gesture: Refill our own bottle.
$10
If your company or dance studio wants to be a part of the Re: initiative, Movmnt will help you set up a cost efficient fresh water station and can customize the bottle for your brand. For orders of 50 bottles or more, contact Anjuli - re@movmnt. com Movmnt bags are perfect to throw your shoes and clothes in and head out to dance class. Drawstring bags with the Movmnt logo are available for purchase or come as a free gift with a new subscription.
