Community driven fitness
This type of fitness is growing in popularity and it’s becoming more vital that we seek out connection in our busy, daily lives. If you’re not sure where to connect with others, try one of our FREE classes we offer through Active SWV. People who participate in our programs, often say they enjoy the community that is formed and how the community aspect helps them come back time after time. Community driven fitness will not only boost your physical health, but new research finds that group classes are even better for your mental wellbeing than a solo sweat session. A small study discovered that people who participated in group classes reported reduced stress and increased physical, emotional and mental health benefits than those who went solo or didn’t participate in any physical activity at all. The researchers also noted that in addition to the community component was that music and dance used in group classes may enhance mood. Active SWV has several opportunities for you to connect with a group and get your body moving as well. Check out our FREE programs and get plugged in.
