Training Run Walk for Youth with Down syndrome!

*Contact Kurtis at 425-894-6747 if you can't find us at the park*

Uplift Movement will be hosting our very first community run, walk, and training event this October! There are all kinds of organized opportunities to exercise for individuals without Down syndrome. We created Uplift to bring equal opportunity for exercise to the Down syndrome community. Our team’s Movement Specialist, Bryant, has designed exercise specifically tailored to this group to help with:

- muscular strength

- cardiovascular endurance

- body composition specifically in the mid section

- strengthen joints and ligaments

- increase core stability

The whole time, our team’s Behavioral Specialist, Kurtis will be on site to encourage and support if needed as well as to ensure everyone is involved and is able to participate! The event will be held at Burke-Gilman Trail in King County Washington on October 17 from 10am-12:00pm. Family and friends are always welcome, but if you’d like to take some time for yourself, let us take care of your kids so you can relax for a few hours! We’ve got plenty of recommendations nearby for you to explore.
