Faye's Tips

         Set some goals


  • Dancing, pick your favourite songs and dance around to them for 15 minutes,


  • Sit to stand  - 5 sets during the day 10, 12, 16, 18, 20


  • Do okey cokey with big movements


  • Karaoke time


  • Try brushing your teeth with your non-dominant hand


  • Throw a ball (or crumpled up newspaper) to someone or against the wall, see you many times you can do it without dropping it, maybe get brave a clap between each throw. Or use hand to catch and throw


  • Hula hooping - practise learning a new physical skill, (big sized hula hoop)


  • Egg and spoon (I use boiled egg) walk around the house/garden  without dropping it, 


  • Learn a new dance the cha cha cha, mamba, salsa, 


  • Practise balancing on one leg, hold as long as you can, then change to the other leg, hold as long as you can. Do it again and try to beat your last time.


  • Read an article or pages of a book whilst lifting your knee up towards your hips.


  • If you have a racket and ball, or crumpled up newspaper. Count how many times you can bat it up and down in the air, without dropping it. 


  • Balance a book on your head and walk around the garden, time how long you can do it before it drops. Try and beat this time.
