We are starting a new exercise program to bring spark and interest to our participants, and get folks more engaged in movement. We have always had an exercise routine during our day, however we felt it needed a little sprucing because it was getting a tad stale. We want to energize everyone and have more fun while getting our exercise.
We are excited to launch this new program starting today, January 5th, 2011! We will be using music and props in innovative ways. So far we have had a lot of fun and great success with our new program. We will start adding this new routine to our day just a couple times a week, but are hopeful that in February we will begin doing this new program each day.
We want to make exercise fun! Create body awareness by using props that will give some sensory input, use movement patterns to create brain connections. Remember the benefits of movement for your loved ones - it's healthy, improves flexibility, mobility, balance, decreases pain, improves sleep, builds self-confidence and boosts the immune system, it is also good for the brain and social activities... just to name a few!
Keep those bodies moving!
Let us know if you want any suggestions about exercises at home that you can do with your loved ones.
