We report preliminary results of a long term spectral line VLBI experiment to observe internal proper motions of water maser sources in the vicinity of newly formed stars. This technique yields a picture of the three-dimensional kinematics of the region and a measure of the distance to the source. First results from the galactic center source SGR B2 are presented.
