Details of workshops- Provided by Emma Hopkinson

Monday 18 Feb

4.15-5.45pm Bracken Edge Primary School, Newton Road, Chapeltown, LS7 3HE

This is the Gee4orce Youth Dance Group 12-18 year olds – but most are GCSE age, approx 15 in the group. Would be great to do some kind of physical activity with them looking at the issues of obesity and how it relates to exercise – perhaps the weight suit idea (can book again if you guys want it?!?) or even the ‘traffic light’ and ‘plate’ exercise to get them to understand the importance of what they eat – or if you guys have something new you want to try then please feel free. Please make the workshop an hour long so the guys can still warm up with their tutor Gee Goodison – I will attend also.
