VIDEO: Muiriosa Foundation enjoy 'Wellness Wednesday'

A Wellness Wednesday event was organised by Ethan O'Flynn for all the members of the Muiriosa Foundation in Cill Cuan, Mullingar.

The event included activities such as yoga led by instructor Blanaid, and an interactive dance class led by Nessa, all taking place outdoors in the beautiful sunshine. There was plenty of healthy snacks provided on the day and everyone had a good time.

"I came up with the idea because I had organised a festival before called Facefest," Ethan tells the Westmeath Examiner.

"I wanted to organise another one. Every second week we do a yoga class with Blanaid, and some of the others do dance classes with Nessa, so I wanted to focus on movement medicine which is so good for you. I like organising things," he said.

The Muiriosa Foundation is an organisation for adults with additional needs and Ethan's idea was so good that it may lead to 'Wellness Wednesday' being held once a month!
