Walk with Ease
The Twin Cities Faith Community Nurse Network is asking Christ the King to pilot a program from the Arthritis Foundation and are offering it to us at no cost. This program can help you:
- Reduce the pain and discomfort of arthritis
- Increase balance, strength and walking pace
- Build confidence in your ability to be physically active
- Improve overall health
You do not need to have arthritis to attend. It is beneficial to all. The program will run from February 22nd - March 29th. This involves meeting at the church once a week. We will then go over short simple exercises and some health topics, then some brief walking at the church at your own pace and ability. This is a 6-week program that is geared toward gradually increasing your stamina. People will need to commit to 3 times a week. The Sunday afternoon class will count for one day. You will walk on your own the other two days. The church is always a safe and available area for walking. If you don't wear a step/distance tracker, we can have distance maps of the church available for you. You will be lent a book and given a tracking sheet. The books are also available for purchase . The more people that sign up and complete the requirements, the more money the church will receive. This class will be held in conjunction with the Walk and Talks at the Mall of America. Those that want to walk further than at the church, we can carpool or you can drive yourself to the MOA where you can join up with the Walk and Talk program. Questions?
