💧🎉 Water Update: The Plot Twist We Were Hoping For! 🎉💧

Much like Texas weather, our water situation couldn't quite decide what it wanted to do... but we're happy to report that the water has officially been restored to the building! 🙌

After going back and forth more than a Texas forecast in the spring, our faucets are flowing, restrooms are open, and water fountains are back in action.

We sincerely appreciate everyone's patience, flexibility, and understanding as we worked through this unexpected challenge. Thank you to our incredible staff, members, parents, and guests for rolling with the punches and keeping a positive attitude throughout.

We're back to normal operations and ready to continue making this summer a great one at The Beacon! ☀️💦

Now let's all enjoy some water the way it was intended—coming out of the faucet and not causing surprise schedule changes! 😄

Thoracic Wall Windmills: Welcome back to Movement Monday! This month, we are focusing on spine mobility. Today, we are doing Thoracic Wall Windmills!

How to do it:
Start with your knee on the ground near a wall. Stretch your arms out along the wall and rotate clockwise with your arm staying attached to the wall the whole time.

Tip: Keep your knees in contact with the wall the whole time. This locks your lower body in place, so the rotation comes from your upper back.

This is a fantastic stretch to loosen up a stiff upper back and improve your overall rotation. Add it to your warm-up or cool-down and let us know what you think!

Thread The Needle: Welcome back to Movement Monday! This month, we are focusing on back/spine mobility. Today, we are doing Thread the Needle!

How to do it:
Start on all fours with your hands under your shoulders and knees under your hips. Take one arm and slide it along the ground underneath your other arm, rotating your upper body until your shoulder and cheek rest on the floor. Hold for a moment and feel the stretch through your upper back and shoulder, then return to the starting position and repeat on the other side.

Tip: Let gravity do the work, the more you relax into the stretch, the deeper it will feel.

This is a great way to keep your upper back and shoulders moving well. Give it a try and let us know what you think!

Thoracic Rotation: Welcome back to Movement Monday! This month, we are focusing on back/spine mobility. Today, we are doing Thoracic Rotations.

How to do it:
Start in a kneeling or seated position with your hands behind your head and elbows wide. Keep your lower body stable and slowly rotate your upper body to one side as far as you comfortably can. Hold for a moment, then rotate back to the other side. Focus on moving through your upper back, not your lower back.

A mobile upper back makes everything easier, from lifting to everyday movement. Add this into your warm-up or cool-down routine and let us know what you think!
