Workout Flex Class, Full Body Workout- Active Exercise, Health, PE (8-12)

Description

Get ready to flex your muscles in this flex exercise class! Let’s get active with a full body workout in a real gym with a bodybuilding champion! We will perform balance, agility, and strength exercises while having fun and learning!

Class will always begin by getting our muscles warmed up. We will guide your child through the warm-up and stretching. Safety first!
Next, we will model and perform a variety of exercises for both our upper and lower body. We will use our “dumbbells” (2 water bottles will work just fine!- or optional light dumbbells). The exercises and workouts will be fresh and fun each class! All exercises can be modified to ensure each child is feeling successful and strong!
Finally, class will finish with a cool down stretch and conversation.

Each week there will be learning opportunities and games to learn muscle names, healthy habits, ways to stay active, and nutrition facts.

There will also be opportunities to engage with other learners about fun things such as our favorite books, movies, and other activities we enjoy! These will be in the form of interactive discussion posts, video sharing (if comfortable and wanting feedback from me), trivia, weekly challenges (such as trying to eat food from each color of the rainbow), and playing games (such as “fact or fiction” and “describe it”). Our goal is for there to be lots of physical activity, engagement, and learning!

You can expect your child to receive lots of encouragement and praise throughout our workout. Both our teaching and coaching style center around giving each child a lot of individual attention. In a flex class, learners will be encouraged to submit short video clips of their exercises if they would like any feedback on form or technique.
They will finish each workout video feeling excited about fitness, and with a new workout routine they can practice at home!
