Rebound as therapy

Whats that I asked my mentor?

Only bouncing around on humongous trampolines, my god you could not get me on that minibus fast enough. myself and 2 carers took 3 clients, who all have profound and complex Learning disabilities for their weekly rebound sessions. We were meant to have a client each and take turns at having a rest, not a bloody chance its Janathon. I bounced with 1 client, then the next one came and got on our trampoline, as their carer was resting, before I new it I had all 3. A jolly good time was had bouncing for over an hour, the clients had a great time too ;) Also, seeing them so animated was an absolute joy.

Must remember to do ones pelvic floor exercises before I go again next week, four children and all that, I suppose I could always resort to Tena Lady!!!!!!!!.

I got my four miles extra walking in again, must admit I was tempted to stay on the bus for a few extra stops though as torrential rain was weather of the day today. But no, I braved it like the good little Janothoner that I am.

Got home a little earlier than expected so dragged my self out for a little jaunt on the bike too, only one mile as I discovered that its too bloody dark to ride at night here even with my bike lights, but hey ho I bounced myself silly today.

  1. Trampolining is fab exercise, I did a class once and I was completely knackered by the end :) Sounds like you all had fun!

  3. an HOUR? of Trampolining? My god I'm not surprised you were tempted to skip some of the anti-bus-walking.

    My godson has a big garden trampoline and he usually finishes me off within about 10 minutes.
