KEEP FIT MOVEMENT
VISITING ENGLISH EXPERT.
(By Teipgraph—Press Association.)
WELLINGTON, This Day
Miss Mildred Meredith-Jones, one of the leaders of England’s Keep Fit movement, governed by the Central Council of Physical Training and subsidised by the Government, arrived by the Awatea. She intends to investigate women’s physical work in the Dominion and may take up the Keep Fit movement here. For three years she was physical mistress at Notre Dame High School, Northampton, and following that instructed at the Bishop Stortford Training College. The most outstanding development in the movement was the popularity of exercising to music, sub says. Older persons found music of great importance in maintaining their interest and relieving the tedium of simple routine exercise.
