One initiative which has taken off in the last couple of years is the 'Kick Yourself Fit' (Get Back Into) sessions. This is a fun way to get fit for Ladies only.
The aim of the sessions is to have fun, learn a few football skills and play a few games. It’s for all fitness levels and abilities, especially if you haven't played for a while or have never played before - everyone is welcome, just come along, meet new friends and have some fun!
Playing football is a great way to stay fit and will provide you with a total-body workout. It's also great for beating the blues as sessions can improve mood, confidence and self esteem, as well as help to reduce stress and aid better sleep.
The next Kick Yourself Fit (Get Back Into) sessions will be taking place in Stevenage throughout the summer 2010!
Summer Kick Yourself Fit (Get Back Into) Sessions 2010
When: Starts 14th July Wednesday's throughout the summer Time: 7pm - 8pm
Where: Stevenage Borough Football Academy, Broadhall Way, Stevenage, Hertfordshire SG2 8RH
Cost: Only £2 per session!
If you haven't been able to come along yet, it's never to late and with the sessions extending over the summer months, the participants who have been coming over the last 10 weeks can tell you, you won't be expected to perform keepie-uppies, head the ball or score a hat-trick! The great thing about the kick yourself fit sessions and women's football is you can just be yourself.
