We believe that to move is to live.
We are a locally owned consultancy focused on increasing participation in sport, recreation, and active living by incorporating a physical literacy approach into existing and new programs.

Our goal is to make quality movement and active living part of daily living for all.
MOTUS Ventures was created out of a lifelong desire to move. Elisa Maruzzo has been working in the areas of kinesiology, physical literacy, and community development for over 20 years.
From a foundational love of movement as an athlete and coach, Elisa went on to earn a Kinesiology and Business degree from UBC. Adding various certifications and work experience along the way, MOTUS has grown to a firm that has worked at local, National, and International levels with organizations determined to increase participation in sport, recreation, and active living.
At MOTUS, we work tirelessly to build pathways and demonstrate how an active lifestyle – where quality movement sets the foundation – pays dividends for all.
