Idea Fair
We are on the Move
How has this idea enhanced your club's operation, etc.?
Exercise equipment like old heavy bags, medicine balls, and weights were moved from one studio to another through teamwork in a group exercise class workout. The equipment needed to be moved because of a studio renovation project so we put the members to work! The group exercise class participants got a workout and the club saved some money for a moving service which otherwise would have been outsourced to a contractor to move equipment.
How was this idea implemented, and what have been the club members' reactions?
Walking lunges, or “suitcases”, and team lifts were all incorporated to move equipment. It generated a creative, fun, and rewarding experience that offered camaraderie with CCV members in a new and unique type of workout. Many in the classes have been asking when we will do it again!
