Practicum in Health Promotion at UVA

I have a flyer for this if anyone is interested: 

A local project, Move2Health, is looking for exercise physiology students to assist with a project as part of a practicum experience or simply on a volunteer basis. The Move2Health point person, Elizabeth Beasley (copied here), is looking for volunteers to review the “Move” portion of the Move2Health website (http://www.move2healthcentralva.org/). My dietetic interns will be reviewing the “Eat” section, likely using the attached instruction sheet as a guide.
 
If you know of any people who may be willing to review the Move section, please reach out to Elizabeth. Tiffany Neal (also copied here) is also assisting with this project.
 
Thanks!

We are a studio that offers all sorts of exercise classes ie. spin, kettlebell, stretch, general group fitness, yoga, zumba.  If there any students who are interested in this avenue we would help them get certified so they could teach, they would of course need the aptitude to do so.  If any are interested they can contact me personally and I would meet with them.  I can send you a flyer with my contact so they can call or email me if they prefer.  Thank for your help with this!

Sports Performance in Charlotte, NC with an Alum!

I received this message from Ashley McConkey, an Exercise Science Alum from 2014:

​I am emailing on behalf of the United States Performance Center in Charlotte who is seeking out strength and conditioning interns for the spring semester. They were very impressed with the kinesiology program at JMU and are looking for others who have gone through the same program I did. We are offering full time positions which would cover all of Kin 481 requirements. If you have anyone who would be interested in this position please have them contact me either by email or phone (434-426-5777). I hope to be hearing from you soon. 
Thanks,
Ashley
