Loading ...Saskatchewan in motion in partnership with the Youth Ballet and Contemporary Dance of Saskatchewan pulled of a deadly flash mob! With over 200 dancers and a huge crowd, even the most confused spectators walked away smiling. We went out there to show how much fun being active, moving around, and just enjoing the feeling you get from being physically active can be.

Active Transportation Flash Mob!
posted by: Kenji category: Active Transportation, Advocacy, Cycling, Empowerment, Engagment, Environment, Healthy Living, LeadershipOn Tuesday (Aug 24th) Saskatchewan in motion (SIM) staffers met up with an eager group of people power enthusiasts for an active transportation flash mob.
It was the second flash mob I was involved with organizing for Sask in motion. We took an entirely different approach with this one, different concept, recruitment plan, filming strategy; the only thing that was similar was location.

Competitive Spirit – Activity and the World Cup
posted by: Kenji category: Family, Healthy Living, Play, SportIt doesn’t really matter what you’re motivation is, for us it was the competitive spirit, which can be a really amazing force. Look at the World Cup. People from all over the world are coming together. A few of them come to actually compete as world class athletes. Most come to cheer and be entertained by the competition both in person and all around the globe.

Pin it for the Planet
posted by: Kenji category: Active Transportation, Active in Nature, Contest, Cycling, Environment, Healthy Living, LeadershipThomas Fuller said, “All things are difficult before they are easy.”
If what our buddie Thomas said is true, it stands to reason that people need a good cause to choose to act.
I found a good one; maybe you’ll think so too. Here’s the scoop.
World Wildlife Fund (WWF) Canada has launched Pin it for the Planet. It’s simple and broken down into 3 simple steps.

I’m convinced that if you looked hard enough you could find “a day” for everyday of the year. There are the classics like Canada Day, St. Patrick’s Day, and some fascinating others that pop up year after year. Today however, is World Health Day. I’ve done some investigation to educate myself and sum it up for you. For what it’s worth, I’m on board with this day.

It can be an interesting challenge trying to find a specific topic to blog about. This time I was inspired by finding out Feb.3- 9 2010 is National Eating Disorder Awareness Week in Canada. Instead of looking at eating disorders specifically, I thought I’d take a look at what our bodies need! Not only to survive, but to be physically active on a regular basis.
People worry about shape, size, and weight for all kinds of reasons. I think the most important thing to know is that there are healthy ways to meet realistic expectations. People quite literally come in all shapes and sizes, and being healthy is what truly matters.
Fact or Fiction?
Does muscle really weigh more than fat?

In honor of the blizzard Saskatchewan just had, I thought I’d whip up a little something about the shoveling we’re all going to have to do. I had just finished my workout for the day when I decided to tackle the snow pile. By the time I was done clearing a path out to the world, the shoveling had been a more intense work out than the weights I had done. Every year shoveling always used to sneak up and wreck my back for a couple weeks when we’d get a good snow. After a few years in a row of that I learned my lesson. So here are my Snow Relocation Tips!

Why is Physical Activity Fun?? Ask Tim
posted by: Kenji category: Engagment, Family, Healthy Living, SportI was stuck on blog inspiration for this week – I had a couple of thoughts but nothing I was feeling desperate to share with the world. Then I checked my twitter (have I mentioned how much I love twitter.. I love it! [follow me @Kenji22] haha). A second glance at my direct messages revealed a tweet for my “awesome friend Tim” with another idea about how he stays active playing league rec hockey. So this one’s for you Timma!
