From 1st to 3rd April 2016 the final sports event for seniors took place in Krakow. This sports event was one of the very important outcomes of the EU funded project Active I.

Below you find a choice of pictures to give you an impression of a well visited and very successfully event. We offered pilates classes, cmlimbing, healthy food, dancing, swimming and running competitions.

On 29th February and 3rd March 2016 , the spanish "Active Seniors" visited the Villaquilambre Social Orchards to share a pleasant morning of learning and cultivating lettuce, onions, carrots, cabbages.

The vegetables are the basis of healthy eating and if we grow it ourselves we also have some movement with gardening. To put it in a nutshell growing fruits and vegetables by ourselves is all around a great activity.

Please find some pics below from the Monday (Navatejera and Villaquilambreseniors) and Thursday group (Villaobispo seniors).

From 24th to 27th January 2016 the ISPO took place in Munich. It is the international leading sports business trade show.

ISPO MUNICH 2016 offers nine fully packed exhibition segments in 16 exhibition halls covering 180,000 square meters. These impressive figures underline the event’s role as key trade show of the international sports business. There are nearly 60 exhibitors more than in the previous year. The portion of foreign exhibitors amounts to 87 percent. A strong increase in the number of exhibitors is recorded above all in the segments Health & Fitness and Outdoor.

So it was a perfect place to introduce people to the Active I project and its great outcomes:
