Time to add something new into your older adults fitness classes and PT sessions? Looking for ways to get your participants laughing and socialising together, or for new ways to challenge your class? Or maybe you're just looking for a fun way to earn professional development points? Whatever the reason, our Agility Ball for Older Adults online course fits the bill.
Including a ball in your workouts adds a whole lot of joy to your class, and is a great way to get people exercising and moving without even knowing it! Balls can be great for improving mobility, building strength, challenging balance, and working on hand/eye coordination. They're also a great way to get your class interacting and having fun as they chase after an errant ball, play games, and exercise together.
A ball can provide an effective, efficient, and tough workout for your older adult participants - we've got 168 ball exercises, including standing, floor, and partner exercises, and ideas for cardio too, that are going to really test them! By the end of the course we hope you will: Know the benefits of using a ball and see why it is a great addition to your older adults workouts; Understand the importance of variety; Understand the benefits of ball exercises beyond the physical; Be prepared for some of the challenges involved in ball classes; Understand how to perform and teach a wide range of exercises; Be confident you can choreograph and deliver a cardio routine with a ball; Incorporate balls into your floor workouts; Embrace the fun and chaos of partner ball exercises; Know how to put together and deliver a fun class with a ball.
