Why running matters
As physios, we love to see kids running. Whether they play footy, netball, or just enjoy running, kids learn best when they are excited about what they are doing! So, if your childs wants to run faster or improve their coordination and agility skills, we would love to help! Running helps with coordination, motor and muscle development and boosts our mood and self-esteem.
For some of us running well doesn’t come naturally. There are tips and tricks to running that we share as part of our sessions. Our aim is to build running confidence so kids want to run more often.
Age-appropriate skill development
Activities:
· Running drills for speed and form
· Fun agility drills to improve coordination and speed
· Developing power and strength for jumping
· Collaborative games
· Active play for health and fun
· Injury prevention/management tips.
