Q. What does wellness mean to you?
A. For us, wellness goes beyond just physical health; it includes mental and emotional well-being. This forms a well-rounded and holistic path to a satisfying life. Our belief is that our balance obstacles mirror this idea of equilibrium and its importance.
"This sport is truly inclusive. As children, we eagerly played on school and park playgrounds, experiencing happiness and reduced stress, often thanks to our parents' support in maintaining that balance. Now as adults, it's our responsibility to allocate time and reintroduce that equilibrium into our lives. So, why not unleash our inner child and join an adult-sized playground—a space where parents and children can come together to create balance."
