Good morning, everyone!
In addition to my previous a bit informal post about dancing exercise, I (Masaki writing) found that a local NPO has been promoting their original exercise called “Maimai Undo” (Maimai Exercise; Not sure what Maimai means). Link: http://a-life-npo.com/news/221.htm
This NPO, named A-Life Nankan, is based in Nankan-machi, Tamana-gun, Kumamoto Prefecture. According to their website, they are promoting health through sports, exercise, etc. in collaboration with Nankan-machi. The “A” in A-Life means “Anytime,” “Anywhere,” and “Anyone” so they are trying to promote healthy life through exercises that anyone can do anywhere at anytime.
Since this self-quarantine period is going to continue for a while, many of us may (probably already) have a lack of exercise these days and in coming days.
A-Life Nankan has been promoting their original exercise “Maimai Exercise” through a leaflet and a YouTube video.
Leaflet (Please click the image at the bottom-right corner): http://a-life-npo.com/news/221.htm
YouTube (the exercise starts from about 30 seconds): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6H3_zYHns9Y&feature=youtu.be
I feel a bit sorry that the leaflet has a bit low resolution, but you can watch the video (though explanations are all in Japanese, you can follow what the instructor does) and hopefully remain in shape. :) It is a good exercise particularly because it also includes some stretching. We all tend to forget to stretch our body, don’t we?
Stay safe and keep in shape, friends!
