Why Theater?

Movement from the Theater point of view

• Movement is growth

=> Theatre is based on movement: from physical, emotional and mental perspectives

• Theatre supports sport exercises

=>… so well because it stimulates imagination

=> …by doing so it breaks the mental barriers that (obese) children might have about sport and excercise

opportunity to EMBODY in one activity
