WHAT IS BRAIN POWER HOUR?
Brain Power Hour is a weekly exercise and walking group for survivors and supporters. Participants are encouraged to set their own personal fitness goals at the beginning of the program and work towards them. Walking groups provide survivors and their families a chance to get some exercise while socializing with a support network. This program is designed to meet the needs of participants who have sustained a brain injury and experience cognitive, physical and/or social challenges when participating in community-based exercise.
The Saskatoon’s program runs September to May then continues outdoors for the summer from June to August. You can also check our Brain Power Hour Video’s on our YouTube Channel by clicking HERE.
