Because Flexibility & Strength Should Feel Good!
Cyndi George, Cynshine Pilates & Integrated Movement
During this interactive lecture, fascial stretch therapist and Fitness expert, Cyndi George will discuss 2 of the biggest threats facing us today: "sitting and screen time."  We spend countless hours online and in front of screens and not moving and this affects every system in the body.   You will come away with understanding how important your "Eye Abs" are to proprioception and how to activate the mechanoreceptors in the hands and feet to keep the brain active and engaged.  You will learn new twists on simple stretches that will open up the diaphragm, relax the shoulders, necks and hips that only take a few minutes on the hour and can be done anywhere - yes even at the grocery store standing in line! Don't let age dictate what you can or cannot do! 

Speaker 6 - 11:30am & 2:30pm

Armed with laser-accurate data and an entrepreneurial mindset, Kim helps Business Leaders change the way they think about themselves and others so that organizations, those entrusted to sustain them, and those who benefit from them are successful.

COVID-19 Update:
The health and safety of our community is a top priority. So that we can continue to offer in-person events, we ask guests to review and adhere the following protocols. These protocols will remain in effect while our community is in Substantial or High Transmission: 
All individuals, including those who are fully vaccinated, are encouraged to wear masks while inside the building, especially when distancing of 6 or more feet cannot be accommodated.
If you have been in close contact (within 6 feet of someone for a cumulative total of 15 minutes or more over a 24-hour period) with someone who has COVID-19; OR if you are experiencing symptoms of COVID-19, such as fever, chills, cough, difficulty breathing, new loss of taste or smell, or other symptoms; OR if attending an in-person meeting would compromise the health of you or a family member, please do not attend any meeting or event in-person. We will gladly accommodate you with a virtual attendance link, if possible.

 As we navigate through this together, you can rest assured that our team will work diligently to maintain high standards and quality programming to deliver a valuable experience to you, even with these protocols in place. We will continue to monitor local, state, and federal guidance and will adjust these protocols as needed. The Gilbert Chamber of Commerce reserves the right to cancel any in-person activity at any time through the guidance of our Board of Directors.
