Dance for Health is a research-based initiative to strengthen mental well-being. We focus on the joy of dancing, social connection and think about things other than the demands of everyday life.
The course can help you who have recurring problems with stress, fatigue, sleep problems, depression, anxiety, headaches or pain in the stomach/back/neck.
Warm-up, free movement, guided dance and relaxation are included in each session. We dance barefoot, but if you want to wear shoes, that’s okay. Feel free to bring socks and a warm sweater for the relaxation.
No prior knowledge is necessary. Come as you are and just dance – you are welcome!

Part 2 next Wednesday same time and place.

Anyone interested will train on their own tonight. Leader has picked up a small injury and needs rest. Pick up the key at the reception at the Tennis Center and you can access the stuff.

This is a trial session for those who have never kayaked before. We paddle at a slow pace so that everyone can keep up, regardless of previous experience.

Requirements to participate: You must be able to swim

Safety on the water is the highest priority, and on land, we will instruct how to perform self-rescue and buddy rescue in case of an accident. The leaders are equipped with safety equipment, in case someone capsizes or needs towing assistance.

During the trial session, we will go through the following:

• Overview/adjustment of kayak and equipment
• Instruction on getting in and out of the kayak
• Overview of the basics of kayaking
• Instruction on safety and paddling techniques
• Tips and advice during paddling from the instructor

Jenny Teir serves as an instructor alongside Anki Stenkull-Aura. Jenny is a teacher at Vasa övningsskola and is studying to become a wilderness guide with a specialization in kayaking.
