Posture Pod for Kids

We recommend beginning by practicing the Posture Pod/Flying Friends. Perform these exercises in front of a mirror before or after you brush your teeth. The Posture Pod is fun and only takes about 30 seconds to complete. You should feel refreshed after the exercises. You will improve your appearance and posture through consistent performance. The Eagle, Hummingbird and Butterfly are simple and immediately invigorating. Straighten Up mirror decals will help you make the exercises a habit.

Once you are comfortable with the exercises (this usually requires about a week of regular practice) and familiar with the life style recommendations, you may begin to share them with broader audiences in schools, corporations, faith communities and civic organizations, etc. Always make sure that individuals in your audiences do not have disabilities, which would prevent safe performance of Straighten Up.

If individuals have disorders/disabilities which limit movement, they should check with their health care professional/educator or fitness expert before beginning the activities to assure that the exercises are appropriate for them.

Elderly individuals should be especially careful in this regard.
