Get Fit!

We had a great time at Get Fit yesterday!  It was such a blessing to me personally, I have to say.  After the big flop with weather and location last spring and canceling our first meeting for fall Get Fit last week, I was feeling a little down about the whole class. 

Our homeschool group has some great fitness people—soccer, baseball and track, oh my!  This little-once-a-week-class seems like meager and unnecessary offerings.

The goal has always been to provide fun fitness for families—ooh!  That was an unintended but happy alliteration. We use the President’s Challenge for guidelines.  But we want to have fun, too!  I mean, if it isn’t fun, what is the point?

So we tried a new format that put the fitness exercises in their place—they came first and we tried out best.  Then we got to the business of fun!  We will play a group PE game each week.  Yesterday we did musical towels. 

Thanks, friends, for coming out to play.  I am looking forward to next week!590937
