The Burdekin Shire Council and Burdekin Neighbourhood Centre have partnered to bring residents over the age of 55 into a free initiative to encourage movement and exercise.
Beginning last week, the ‘Move It Burdekin’ initiative is a 15-week program that offers low impact training, exercises, yoga and chair activities, to suit a range of different fitness levels and improve the physical and mental wellbeing on Burdekin’s residents.
The first post-cyclone session was held at Burdekin Neighbourhood Centre on Monday, January 29, wherethe vibe was “pumping”.
“Huge shout out to facilitator, Andrea Piotto, for bringing her expertise and energy to the program!” Burdekin Neighbourhood Centre posted on social media.
“Going by the laughter, smiles and energy in the room - everyone enjoyed 'moving it'”
The social aspect is also highly encouraged, with participants welcome to share some refreshment, a coffee, and a chat after each session.
Also supported by Move It NQ and North Queensland PHN, Burdekin residents are encouraged to get involved, and get moving!
