Theatre Games for Fitness Instructors
Learn the basic games and how these simple exercises can keep your students IN the workout and listening to you and to their bodies. Keeping your high-intensity students “in the moment” while working out will increase their focus and, consequently, release their stress, calm them and engage them in the play of their training while developing a more acute awareness of themselves and their environment. Give new meaning to the word kinesiology and the combined phenomena of time and energy for all your students. Help your seniors change direction quickly without falling and share the joy of “just listening.”

Tai Chi for Health and Wellness
Incorporates simple relaxing moves designed to strengthen the body while soothing the mind and spirit. At the end of this session you will take away with you a simple Tai Chi “form” you can perform on a daily basis with ease. Tai Chi increases flexibility, balance, and digestion and provides stress release, mental alertness and increased powers of concentration that can be applied to daily living activities. Tai Chi combines deep breathing and postures that flow from one to another through slow movements.
