We've been thinking about our focus of the year, Active Lives, today. Then I found these quotes from class participants last year, they were talking about exercise without realising it!

"I am soooo hot and sweaty but this is really fun!"
Participants, Snodland CEP School after Zumba Kids, July 2014

...

‘Dance is cool. That's why it’s my favourite time. We get thin from exercise and you get to go on a stage to perform. That's the fun part.’
Participant, Balfour Juniors Dance Club, July 2014

ooo, look at Agnes' secrets to longevity! Dancing is on the list!

Happy Birthday Agnes.

'Agnes Cook this week celebrated her 100th birthday and, according to her, the secrets to longevity are "family, moderation in all things, oh and dancing!" Dundee born Agnes turned 100 at the beginning of this week and celebrated becoming a centenarian surrounded by cards, family and friends and a big birthday cake. Agnes said her love of ballroom dancing, which she shared with her husband, continues to keep her fit, healthy and “racing” up and down the stairs of her home. The celebrations are not over yet as there is a much-anticipated huge family party at a nearby hotel to look forward to this weekend. Happy birthday Agnes! Have a wonderful birthday week.'

Did you know, we are focusing on increasing activity in our lives? And are starting with our children's classes, as habits are learned in our youth.

So... we have been thinking of even more active warm ups for our classes... Rebecca has come up with the idea of the times on the clock (better with small groups) every one runs to 3 o'clock, then 12, then 5 for example, and then they become the hands of the clock whizzing through the hours around the circle.

I wonder if they mov...e backwards, rewinding when they go anti-clockwise?

Tick tock tick tock...

'The benefits of Pilates can be seen clearly in the workplace.
The typical office worker is overstressed, out of shape, and run down. They are typically shallow breathers, slouchers and may suffer Occupational Overuse Syndrome. Pilates, with its unique series of exercises, is able to correct ALL OF THESE THINGS.'

Now we're looking forward to Tuesday lunchtime Pilates even more!

Pilates in the Workplace - The Method Pilates
As Pilates instructors we know that the benefits of Pilates are far-­‐reaching. Pilates is so much more than just a series of exercises, it is a mind-­‐body therapy that changes the way we move, think and interact. Far from just toning and sculpting, Pilates alters the way we move and hold our bodie…

And here are some shots from one of today's Active Armchairs Social Dance Classes at Montgomery Court:

'Cathy and Doff get dancing.'
'Peggy joining in.'
'Mickey dancing too.'
'Mary Dancing.. happy.'

Throw Back Thursday!
This may well be the first photo of Active Armchairs that was ever taken!

The photo was taken at Strood Age Concern (Now Age UK Strood) This table of gents always enjoyed their Active Armchairs sessions. This was taken at Halloween (hence the spider on the wall) all the way back in October 2010.
