On November 8, the Department of Sports Health and Rehabilitation, College of Kinesiology, held a community project, “Vitality and Health Day,” for the elderly in Seongbuk-gu, in conjunction with the Jeongneung Silver & Day event at the Jeongneung Silver Welfare Center.

 

 

 

 

 

 


The “Vitality UP, Healthy DAY” is a program designed to strengthen cooperation between the university and the local community, promote intergenerational exchanges between the local elderly and students, and experience the students' major fields of study. On this day, the local elderly were provided with health UP and strength UP exercise classes (health lectures), sports taping, and lower limb rehabilitation exercise programs using myofascial release and props.

 

Byung-soo Park, a student from Kookmin University's Department of Sports Health and Rehabilitation, who participated in the “Vitality and Health Day,” said, “It was meaningful to communicate directly with the local elderly and provide them with special fun, and it was good to be able to apply the knowledge I learned in my major to the field. I hope there will be many programs that can be planned with the local community in the future.”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


Professor Jeon Ji-hyeon of the Department of Sports Health and Rehabilitation, who planned the program, said, “Every year, students from the Department of Sports Health and Rehabilitation run various programs such as athletic rehabilitation camps for local residents to carry out community projects between the university and the community. We will continue to strive for harmony and win-win development with the local community through continuous operation, and in particular, we will plan and deliver various programs to improve the health of the elderly in the community.”
