Getting active

Do you feel stuck in a rut? Are you intimidated to try new activities? If so, you’re not alone.

It’s common for people to skip out on activities they know they would enjoy because they are scared of injury or lack confidence in their abilities. Imagine what it would be like if you didn’t have to think twice about:

• Running around with your kids or grand-kids

• Enjoying nature on a beautiful hike

• Going on excursions during your vacation

• Playing tennis with your friends

• Joining a running/or biking club

• Doing anything you wanted to do

Believe it or not, this can all be achieved by learning some simple skills. Developing control over how you move your joints and squeeze your muscles builds a foundation for success. Improving your balance will ensure you that you stay safe in whatever you choose to do. From there, understanding basic movements skills will give you the confidence to explore new things.
