College clubs are interactive experience for students to build social connections and having a hobby outside of school that will keep them occupied during the semester.
The number of events that college organization host brings the community together for entertainment that keeps the campus evolved with fun task. This club does not shy away of feeling pressure of setting up activities on campus and chooses to take over at the right time.
Mercy’s Exercise Science Club is more about going to the gym for a workout and making fitness a main priority of building strength in the body. Exercise science focuses on physical fitness and health penetrates the movement of the body to become fit from the response of exercising the muscles.
Amanda Bireline, President of Exercise Science Club explains the organization as teaching the community about ways of being fit other than exercising the body.
“The goal of this club is engaging with the people by setting up activities and giving lessons about exercise being important for health,” said Amanda.
Exercise Science Club starts the planning in the fall coming up with ideas for events that they usually host in the spring when the weather is nice. The events hosted includes spike ball tournaments on the campus lawn and king of the court in the victory hall gym last semester. The club also helps the Dobbs Ferry community with the 5K run which happens every last Sunday in April.
The organization offers members the opportunity to learn about the importance of being fit and participating in fun activities with the community. Students who are interested in the field of Exercise Science are welcomed to join the organization to express their interest of exercise and nutrition.
The club mainly provokes discussions about exercise-related instruction lessons to audience of understanding the importance for utilizing the body to stay active. The teachings allow the members to interact with important talks and using the events as fun engagement with the community.
Bireline talks about the club promoting the knowledge of exercise to be taught for the people to be reminded of being actively fit with the body.
“The lessons about exercise topics discussed by the members builds great engagement for this club and helps us work in teams to produce our work towards the people on campus to take care of their bodies,” said Amanda.
Students that become members of this club have received a fulfilling experience of learning exercise science and choosing to go into the field for the future. The club establishes connections between the people and the enjoyment of being active with the body instead of limiting the muscle movement.
The next step for Exercise Science club is continuing to teach the lessons of exercise and trying to host more events on campus so people can be actively engaged. The organization currently has not done much to be active on campus and plans to bring the activities back soon to the Dobbs Ferry community.
Bireline predicts how exercise science club will grow in the future and bringing more members to builds fun ideas for events on campus.
“Hosting more events on campus is the focus for this club and welcoming the students to participate in the activities that are fun and engaging with the members,” said Amanda.
