Day 2~ Power down to Power up!

At Summer YDA 2013 we power down the electronics to power up the body and mind! In order to power up the body our youth participated in several physical activities today. The kids got their groove on with dance lessons and received a sense of balance from calming yoga with Giselle the dance instructor.  After grooving it was time to get moving to the soccer field for team kick ball and other team building activities.The goal of these activities were to enhance the idea of working a with ones peers to accomplish a task that could at times seem too large to manage on one’s own. And it would not be a true day at summer YDA if there was not swimming involved! So it was time to cool off and hit the pool. All youth picked up from the day before, some challenging themselves with flip turns and others with learning how to float. To fuel our bodies for such a fitness packed day, Subway provided a healthy breakfast and lunch! With sponsors such as Kaiser Permanente and inAssist Health Management, making YDA an active place where students develop healthy lifestyles is possible. Thank you to all our sponsors for making days like today possible!
