Alex Reininger is the founder of Mindful Motion, a Bend-based movement instructor dedicated to helping people connect, build confidence, and experience joy through movement. Raised in Bend, Alex grew up snowboarding at Mt. Bachelor and recently returned to the area after a decade away, reconnecting with the mountain and the community she calls home.
With over 14 years of dance training and a background in figure skating and roller dance, Alex teaches line dancing at The Coyote, youth dance at The Dance Connection, and ice skating at The Pavilion. She also works alongside her family at Leapin’ Lizards Toy Company, their longtime downtown Bend toy store. Through Mindful Motion, she creates fun, welcoming experiences for all ages and abilities.
Her mission is simple: bring people together and help them feel more alive through movement.
