Although fitness studios are not deemed “essential” during the stay-at-home order, staying active during this time is crucial–not only for your physical health, but for your mental health, as well! Even more, exercise can help boost your immune system — the body’s defense against infections.
We know there are tons of online workout options; however, at Wichita Mom, we are very focused on helping our community support local businesses during this trying time. Many local fitness studios are offering livestream and online workouts to help get you through this time with your health intact. Check out these resources below to keep your fitness dollars local:
