Our Story
In the late 90’s, after working professionally in the dance industry for such artist as The Backstreet Boys, Missy Elliott, Madonna, Will Smith, and Aaliyah, Tymme and Aury Reitz surrendered their lives to Jesus. Their passion for God’s kingdom and revival in the arts led them to launch Word In Motion Dance Company and several ongoing events.
Tymme and Aury eventually became the lead pastors of Life150 Church in Burbank, California, where they provided an opportunity for all to experience and express the unfailing love and power of Jesus.
​
In 2026, the Lord had them pivot their ministry approach and begin Connect L.A. Bible Study Gatherings.
Tymme has released 4 books. His most recent book, "The Core of Who You Are," is a six week small group bible study on identity.
Other projects to view is "The Rise Effect TV," a YouTube Show that highlights community champions and inspiring lives.

Stay tuned for the new podcast "Dancing with God" launching in 2026.
