The protostellar environment where young stars form has physical conditions suitable to excite a number of molecular maser lines that have traditionally provided an unique probe of star formation kinematics, at the highest angular resolution of radio very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) observations. In the following, we will discuss a number of recent results on our understanding of the gas dynamics traced by masers in the vicinity of young forming stars. These findings provide direct clues on how our community can substantially contribute to the field of star formation in the next decade.
