- Fun exercise – After a busy summer of swimming and playing other sports, some students have a hard time adjusting to the more sedentary days of the school year. Skating for exercise helps kids burn off extra energy, build strong muscles, and maintain a healthy weight.
- Stress reduction – Skating is a great way to alleviate back-to-school stress, and it provides a welcome distraction from everyday worries. With a calmer mind comes improved sleep – a bonus for students of any age.
- Endorphin release – Endorphins, the chemicals produced in the body during vigorous exercise, offer a natural way to regulate mood and to generate a feeling of well-being.
- Memory and concentration – Numerous studies have shown that regular exercise benefits cognitive function not only in childhood, but also throughout every stage of life.
- Self-esteem – As your kids build skills with practice at the skating rink, that sense of accomplishment can provide a confidence boost that carries over into the classroom.
