As part of our ongoing Niche Wellness Program, Creative Niche Toronto has partnered with local health club Totum Life Science to encourage ‘Nichers’ to engage in an active lifestyle, and to make healthier choices.  Totum is located the neighbourhood of our Toronto Office, on King Street West. Every quarter, the Creative Niche team heads over to Totum for a Totum University ‘Lunch-n-Learn’ which consists of an educational information session followed by a group activity.

Our Totum University session, was led by Dr. Blessyl Buan, Chriopractor/Pilates Instructor who taught us some basic Office Pilates and Posture stretches and exercises that we can do at our desks to help keep from developing repetitive strain injuries and keep our bodies from seizing up.  Afterward, Donna Foster-Larocque taught us proper form and the benefits of power walking, then took us Nichers out to the pavement to put us to the test. The Nichers walked 2K in 20 minutes. 

For more information on the exercises we learned, or to learn more about how registered talent of Creative Niche can get a discounted membership with Totum,  please contact Jayla Mortensen.
