So have you been inspired by the Olympics to get active?! We
have! Sadly it is over so quickly but alas, the new academic year is upon us
already. So it’s time for those plans that have been on the backburner to be
brought forward.
At eximo, we are
excited by the prospect of bringing dance and fitness to different areas of
Canterbury this September, including Canterbury College, local gyms and our
weekly classes. We will also be running a preliminary 6 week dance project in
the Barracks this September. The objective is to make this a permanent fixture
within the segregated community. A fundraiser will be held on the evening of
the 26th October, the last Friday of the project, to raise funds to keep dance
in the Barracks! With thanks to Creative Canterbury, who provided the initial
funding for the project, we are able to help Canterbury get active in the
aftermath of the Olympics!
If the Olympics haven’t convinced you, the Paralympics will
be commencing on the 29th August. I’m certain this will truly demonstrate
the lengths that we can achieve despite whatever obstacles stand in our way!
