Brain Power Hour| Saskatoon Brain Power Hour | Saskatoon Field House | Wednesdays at 6:30 – 8:00 pm (Sept-Mar)
Summer Brain Power Hour | Mornings at parks in Saskatoon | May to August

An exercise and walking group for survivors and caregivers. It meets indoors from September to May and outdoors from May to August. Participants are encouraged to set their own personal fitness goals at the beginning of the program and work towards them. Walking groups provide survivors and their families a chance to get some exercise while socializing with a support network. This program is designed to meet the needs of participants who have sustained a brain injury and experience cognitive, physical and/or social challenges when participating in community-based exercise. Walking is a great way to relieve stress as well as lower blood pressure, curb anxiety and depression symptoms, improve mood and foster a sense of well-being.
