Move Your Way, starting with just 10 minutes...

You don't need to transform your life to start moving in the new year – take a look at these simple ideas from This Girl Can to help you build more movement into your day and feel better.

  1. Dance anywhere and anyhow you like 
  2. Layer up and take a brisk (for you) walk 
  3. Try a beginner-friendly online workout 
  4. Drop into your local leisure centre 
  5. Turn TV time into movement time

Forget the 'new year, new you' pressure this January and get moving in your own way. If you're struggling with motivation, use these 3 thoughts to keep you going.

1. Every step, stretch, or shimmy is a win – celebrate it.

2. Starting small is powerful. Two minutes, five minutes, 10 minutes today is more than zero yesterday.

3. You’re proving to yourself that movement is possible – and that’s amazing.
