In Motion- February 20th
We had another full house this morning - and welcomed Ona McDonald who gave an amazing talk about Osteoarthritis and Osteoporosis. Ona demonstrated some movements to help alleviate some aches and pains and taught us about the importance in activating our glute muscles - in everything we do. We would love your feedback on this mornings talk - please take our poll below. If you have any questions and would like to connect with Ona, she can be reached at: onamcd@sympatico.ca.
Did you enjoy Ona's presentation?
Yes - it would be great if she could come back another time.
No - I did not enjoy the presentation.
I did not attend.
NEXT WEEK- February 27th
Please join us next week for a presentation with Dawn Hannah from Alzheimer's Durham who will be speaking about Brain Health. We will also be welcoming back Carol Drew who will be leading a Nia class in the Dome. Nia is a sensory-based movement practice that draws from martial arts, dance arts and healing arts. It empowers people of all shapes and sizes by connecting the body, mind, emotions and spirit. Don't forget your comfy shoes!
New Process
In Motion Program Check-In

As our membership numbers grown, we are looking for ways to streamline our program check-in process. When you arrive at the In Motion program, please ensure that you check-in at the front desk - for attendance. Don't forget to bring your In Motion tag!

Our presenters start at 9:00am sharp. Please ensure that you arrive early - as there is limited seating. In an effort to reduce distractions for the presenter and our In Motion members, the event room will be closed to late arrivals at 9:15am.

Don't worry if you are late!! If you arrive after 9:15am, we will be opening the Dome for people to get an early start on activities.
