A Day at Easter Seals

Becki's Bootcamp

I have patients meet me at the “bar” for a margarita…no, they meet me at the bar to work on balance, movement, and strength in their legs. We were doing an activity where each participant would give 4 commands (step back, squat, kick leg, turn to the left, etc) and the others would have to remember all 4 commands and then do them. We have a man who moved from Cuba 25 years ago. He has the greatest accent and can do the cha-cha like no other. He kept telling us to do “squatches” and every time he said it the group would crack up! I had to rule “no more squatches” as I feared that someone was going to fall to the ground laughing. This is just a glimpse as to what I do at work. Gosh, I love my job!!
