Coming soon! – Active Living Every Day (ALED) program
Active Living Every Day (ALED) program
is an evidence-based behavior change program. The approach is unique because it addresses the root causes of inactivity rather than simply prescribing exercise. ALED is like no exercise class you’ve ever been to. In fact, you won’t exercise at all in your weekly Active Living classes. Instead, you’ll find ways to be active every day: at work, at home, on vacation, etc.
Active Living Every Day works because you’ll learn the skills you need to become and stay physically active.
