What is a movement play class?
Movement play is any type of play that gets the body moving — or any type of movement that’s fun. As children, we’re very familiar with movement play. We run, jump, swim and climb; we wiggle our bodies or use them to pretend. But, often, as adults, movement becomes a chore. We lose touch with our bodies and our sense of how fun it is to move them.
Movement play classes at TPF helps reintroduce fun to movement through a blend of competitive and collaborative games involving small obstacles, stretching, passing objects, mirroring movements, and more. It’s an energizing, collaborative, creative class that’ll teach you a lot about how you move, play, respond, react and communicate. And hopefully have a lot of fun while doing it!
