Daily Fitness Tip: Oct. 9

Stretching is Super!  Flexibility and regular stretching is important for all ages!  Regular stretching can improve:

1.  Balance & Coordination: both of which are important throughout motor skill development during childhood, but also for everyday function for adults young and old!
2. Circulation:  Think better blood flow to the brain during your student's next spelling test!
3. Mood:  Stretching can offer relaxation, but also play a role in stress managment!

Make it a goal to stretch more!  Spend a few minutes in the morning before everyone rushes off to school and work or as a family before bed!
