Mental Health Awareness
movement is medicine
& it’s better with friends
May is Mental Health Awareness Month, a time dedicated to shedding light on the importance of mental wellness and the so many ways we can nurture it. This year, we are thrilled to introduce our "Movement is Medicine" campaign.
Give the Gift of Movement: ONE FREE CLASS FOR YOUR FRIENDS
From now until the end of the month, invite a friend to join you at Backyard by having them fill out the form below, and they will receive ONE FREE CLASS to take with you!
There’s no limit to the number of friends you can invite, so spread the word about the importance of movement, connection, and mental health!
The Social Element: Moving with a Friend
While movement alone offers numerous mental health benefits, these effects are amplified when shared with a friend. Social connections play a crucial role in emotional health, and exercising with a partner can enhance these benefits.
Here are a few reasons why moving with a friend is even more beneficial:
Increased Motivation: Having a workout buddy can boost your motivation and commitment. You're more likely to stick to your exercise routine when someone else is counting on you.
Emotional Support: Exercising with a friend provides a platform for emotional support. We all need a hype buddy, a high-five or an LFG sometimes, are we right?
Enhanced Enjoyment: When you team up for a workout, exercise transforms into FUN! Shared goals and a dash of friendly rivalry make every sweat session much better.
Accountability: Circling back to that hype buddy...having someone there to give you a nudge in sticking to your routine and go the extra mile (sometimes literally) is always helpful!
Let’s go squad.
