Central Island Healthy Lifestyles: Shapedown BC opened its doors 5 years ago and what an incredible 5 years it has been!

On Saturday May 12, 2018 we will be celebrating our success by teaming up with this year’s annual Walk With Your Doc event in Nanaimo. We will be meeting at 10 am in the Spirit Square, at Maffeo Sutton Park – everyone is welcome to join us. Walk With Your Doc starts at 10 am and we will be on location at the event between 9:30 and noon with a table of information, balloons, prizes and cake!

Central Island Healthy Lifestyles is a free family-based program for kids age 6-17 and their families who are ready to make changes for a healthier lifestyle.

Through aged-based workshops and individualized support, our team helps families make positive changes in eating habits, activity level, parenting skills and self-esteem. Our Interdisciplinary team includes: a dietitian, fitness instructor, social worker and physician.

What we are most proud of are the numerous families who have been through our program and have made meaningful changes to their lifestyle habits. Changes like reducing screen time, clearing the kitchen table to make room for meals, turning off the wifi before bedtimes, spending more active time together as a family and improved communication and sleeping habits.

We hope you can join us to help us celebrate!
