FFF: Spark Session outcomes & what's next

At the session on Thursday October 30th, we explored what family friendly fitness sessions could look like. We agreedย the sessions would have to be:

  • Free
  • Regular, perhaps on a few different days/times to facilitate as many people's schedules as possible
  • 30-45 minutes long
  • Body positive and accessible for all abilities, fitness levels, etc. and focused simply on movement (not body shape or weight loss)
  • Open to bringing kids (how exactly, tbd!)
  • Somewhere with a fenced playground/area for kids, potentially rotating between different places, and seasonally changing (outdoor/indoor)
  • Non-equipment, with a variety of different exercises
  • Contribute to building community and getting to know other local kids and parents
  • Participation at your own risk
  • Able to be done without a facilitator, for example by having a number of different 'programs' available that are easy to follow
  • Potentially able to be done at home by yourself or online, if you can't make it out of the house!

The next steps for Family Friendly Fitness will be to bring together a project team to work out the finer details and do some planning, and to do an inventory of the best days & times for sessions!

If you have any additional considerations, worries, ideas, or thoughts - feel free to share them below in the commentsย โค or join our Facebook group here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1172364290892204

We would love some more people on board the project team to help with planning Family Friendly Fitness, please let us know below if you're keen for this!ย Joining the project team is not a permanent commitment, and your participation is completely dependent on your capacity at any given time. Anyone is welcome to jump in (and out), and contribute whenever they want to.
