Why is it even more important to exercise in winter?
Well, it's easy to make excuses to stay at home.

However, your body still needs exercise even when the weather is cold, and don’t forget amongst the other benefits that exercise has it can actually boost your immune system so let’s skip the flu this winter!

Here is an idea, come to Anitas Dance Academy, we have a workout that you will enjoy enough to keep up with in winter months.

In sweaty summer days our body naturally craves healthier food like fruit & salad but the arrival of winter, oh my, don’t we switch to comfort foods like pie, baked pasta, gravy & roast dinner of course.
Anyone can take our Dance Fitness classes, we are an all-inclusive fitness program & you can move at your own pace with no judgement.

All fitness levels & all ages are welcome!

Monday 7.30pm & Wednesday 7.45pm Zumba style fitness blend

Transport Woes

Sandra from Timberlea

Whatever happened to 'creative/divergent thinking'?

Whatever happened to 'creative/divergent thinking'?
Many years ago I was a fan of the TV programme - 'The Jetsons'.
Am still waiting for the day one can punch in a selected menu option into a gadget, to receive/digest a pill to do the job. BLISS... no planning, cooking or cleaning up!
The other memory is the use of air space travel!
Why does everything have to be land based in this day and age?
Almost guarantee at least 80%+ of vehicles on the road in peak hours have a driver only!
Gondolas, chair lifts, bullet trains, para-gliders in summer ... surely there can be options to the reliance on 'land based transport'.
Recently reading the comments from the Mayors beyond Central Wellington, made me think that each and every one of those areas have problems which directly impact on them, yet the focus seems to be on Wellington City itself.
Will stop here. Save other comments in the hope other forward thinking people have ideas.
By the way ... I DO expect to get shot down in flames - but would be content if others could think outside the box.

Feather cardigan.

One myth about sport every parent should know

The Team from ACC New Zealand

A more realistic outcome is early burnout, loss of motivation and potential mental health issues in later life.

We’ve talked with the experts to discover how to maintain Kiwi kids’ sporting balance, and how you can help them reach their potential:
