Since the beginning of 2010, bellicon Germany GmbH has formed a strategic cooperation with the “federal association for the advancement of posture and motion (registered association) BAG. The BAG is a very prestigious institution and is therefore proportionately assisted by the federal ministry for family, seniors, woman and juveniles.
The intention of the association is to develop measures that will prevent a lack of exercise, and its manifold consequences, in all age groups. To achieve this, BAG intends to spread the word that regular, moderate exercise is essential for our physical, spiritual and emotional wellbeing. Only those who regularly exercise can simultaneously keep their body healthy and fit, train their spiritual ability and re-establish their emotional balance.
According to Dr. Dieter Breithecker, director of the BAG, sensorimotory- and vestibular impulses play a very large, and until now often neglected, part in this. An important contribution can be had by training on the highly flexible bellicon with its many coordination and balance requirements.
It is BAG and bellicons’ mutual aim to stimulate people to exercise. The first joint project, which also uses bellicon trampolines, will be “the active classroom”. Further cooperation is already planned.
Further information can be found on BAG’s internet pages.
