Fitness with the Hofers


Physical activity is a great avenue for self-care. The Hofers, two of our finest teachers, have provided a short video to introduce a couple exercises you can complete at home. We want to encourage all our families to engage in physical activity for the following reasons:


* strengthens muscles and bones
* increases energy levels
* improves emotional health
* a healthier heart
* lowers blood pressure
* supports a healthy weight
* supports positive outlook and healthy habits

The American Heart Association posted a short article that highlights all those benefits, check it out: Why is physical activity so important for health and wellbeing?

Physical activity does not look the same for everyone so if you are moving and busting a sweat, you're doing a great job! Grey Ghost Nation- our challenge for you is to complete 20 minutes of physical activity a day. Ready..set...go!!
