We started out with our warm up inside and since it was a beautiful day, we did 3 laps outside around the blacktop.
We then did a similar version of Four Corners that they play at the skating rink but instead of having someone pick that corner and you were out, the person doing the picking of the corner got to choose how many and what exercise that that corner had to do. It couldn't be more than 20 so it could be 15 situps, 10 pushups, etc. So while the person in the middle had their eyes closed, the group would have to either skip, bear walk, run, hop,etc and when the whistle was blown, they had to go to the closest corner. They all seemed to really have fun with this.
Really can't find any pictures to go with this. If you have questions, you can always ask your child to explain it or better yet, make it a family game.
Thank you Mrs. Hawk and Mr. Mortensen for helping
FRIDAY OCT. 19, 2012 YMCA 2:30-4:30 ish
They then had a segment on Martial Arts and got to learn some of the moves which they do. They all seemed to enjoy it. Christy Baker from the Y will be giving me the names of the people that were there helping out with this so we can give them proper credit for their part. They had a really good discussion with the kids about bullying and keeping their body healthy. Thanks to Mike O'Neal, Bruce Mikesell and Daniel Wittles for the Tae Kwon Do lessons.
Then the kids had a Yoga segment which was started off by TJ Suter and then Emily Jasenski from ElementsLife- http://elementslife.com/yoga/ had a session with the kids. Can I tell you how much the kids LOVED THIS!!!! I think they want her to come back for a second round. I think I even saw some of the volunteers trying to do some of her moves :) Anyway it was a wonderful week for the Goal Getters and looking forward to this week.
