Movement to Feel Good! 

How does movement make you feel? 

This is how I feel after I exercise, full of energy and proud of what I have achieved. I love to move and challenge my body. What can I do and what can I work towards achieving? 

Whaea Holly’s Movement Goal: 

To move my body in some way everyday! 

Including a mix of high, medium and low intensity workouts throughout my week.

What is your movement goal? 

- To practise a certain move everyday. For example: A hand stand, head stand, push up etc. 

- To get a certain amount of steps per day. 

- To take your family through a Tōtara fitness 

   session!

Why should we move our bodies?

Moving our bodies can make us feel happy as our bodies release endorphins. Additionally, it’s free, fun and all we need is a bit of space. We can keep active in a variety of ways, by ourselves or with others.

How can we get active at home?
