Loading ...Saskatchewan in motion in partnership with the Youth Ballet and Contemporary Dance of Saskatchewan pulled of a deadly flash mob! With over 200 dancers and a huge crowd, even the most confused spectators walked away smiling. We went out there to show how much fun being active, moving around, and just enjoing the feeling you get from being physically active can be.

Active Transportation Flash Mob!
posted by: Kenji category: Active Transportation, Advocacy, Cycling, Empowerment, Engagment, Environment, Healthy Living, LeadershipOn Tuesday (Aug 24th) Saskatchewan in motion (SIM) staffers met up with an eager group of people power enthusiasts for an active transportation flash mob.
It was the second flash mob I was involved with organizing for Sask in motion. We took an entirely different approach with this one, different concept, recruitment plan, filming strategy; the only thing that was similar was location.

3 Steps to Leading Physical Activity By Example
posted by: Kenji category: Advocacy, Empowerment, Engagment, Environment, LeadershipIt’s been a week since our provincial gathering, Inspiring Action-Jump in 2010! I’ve spent a lot of time pondering what I learned from the event and our guest speaker Severn Cullis-Suzuki.Severn shared a lot of personal stories about her work within the environmental movement to explain how she became a young leader. We wanted the hundreds of youth in the audience and across the province to understand the incredible potential they have to be at the forefront of positive change.
Severn broke it down like this:

Why is Physical Activity Fun?? Ask Tim
posted by: Kenji category: Engagment, Family, Healthy Living, SportI was stuck on blog inspiration for this week – I had a couple of thoughts but nothing I was feeling desperate to share with the world. Then I checked my twitter (have I mentioned how much I love twitter.. I love it! [follow me @Kenji22] haha). A second glance at my direct messages revealed a tweet for my “awesome friend Tim” with another idea about how he stays active playing league rec hockey. So this one’s for you Timma!

Gold and Glory at the World Jr. Championship
posted by: Kenji category: Empowerment, Engagment, Healthy Living, SportI’ve never been a hockey player myself but I’m definitely a fan. I’d go so far as saying I’ve tried to play, but actually classifying my actions as “playing” might be a different story. Haha. Thankfully there are many people who are amazingly talented at hockey! So even though I can’t be impressive, I can be impressed by the athletes who do it right. Luckily for Saskatchewan this year’s World Jr. Hockey championship was held here. Two cities, my home town, Regina and S’toon welcomed some of the best young players from around the world to play for gold. I think that’s what is so deadly about watching any competitive sport. It can be inspiring, and usually fires me up to do something myself.
