Our Chair Dancing workshop in Calgary was all about movement, music, and self-expressionβ€”made accessible for everyone. Participants explored rhythm, coordination, and creative movement from a seated position, all in a fun and supportive environment. 🎢✨

Chair dancing offers so much more than just a great time. This workshop helped participants:
βœ… Build strength, flexibility, and body awareness

Every move was a chance to try something new, feel empowered, and celebrate what our bodies can do. The energy in the room was incredible, and the smiles said it all! πŸ’›

πŸŽ„πŸ—οΈ Teamwork, creativity, and giving back!

During the staff holiday celebrations, teams took on a fun structure-building challenge with a meaningful twist. Staff were asked to bring in non-perishable food items for the Veterans Association Food Bank of Edmonton , then split into four teams to build their own towers using the donated items.

Each team put their creativity and collaboration to the test, resulting in some impressive (and competitive!) towers β€” all while supporting an important cause. Take a look at the towers below and vote in the comments for your favourite! πŸ’™βœ¨

πŸ πŸŽ„ Sweet creations and holiday teamwork!

Program participants got into the holiday spirit during the gingerbread building competition, splitting into groups to design and build some truly amazing houses. With plenty of creativity, collaboration, and a little frosting magic, each group brought their own festive vision to life.

The activity encouraged teamwork, problem-solving, and creativity β€” and the results were as impressive as they were delicious. Such a fun way to celebrate the season and enjoy time together! πŸ’™βœ¨

🎳 Strikes, Smiles, & Community Connection!

Our daytime programs in both Edmonton and Calgary include opportunities to enjoy the community, learn new skills, and build confidence. The recent bowling day in Calgary was a perfect example, filled with laughter, teamwork, and moments of personal achievement!

Being able to share activities like this encourages social interaction and strengthens physical skills. It also creates space for friendships to grow while exploring the community in fun and engaging ways, and celebrates visibility and inclusion for people with disabilities.

From cheering on friends and applauding every pin knocked down, the Calgary bowling day was a wonderful reminder of the joy and growth that comes from being active in the community. πŸ’™βœ¨
