Why do we c-c-cold dip?

Community. Challenging Ourselves. Chill-Willy Experiences.

Cold dipping, often done through activities like cold showers, ice baths, or swimming in cold water, has gained popularity due to its potential health benefits. People use cold dipping for various reasons: clout, zen, friendship, coffee?

Hear what the crew says here from Oct 2022 to April 2023! We’re starting up again now, from Oct 2023 to the present. read more

Introducing: Neighborhood Residencies

Hey y’all!

If you’re reading this, you’ve almost made it through February. A month usually reserved for cold snaps and a lot of gray days, we’ve felt some warmth from the sun this month and took in many beautiful sunrises together. We’re really glad you’re here and showing up – the winter days elevate us to a whole other level of beast mode that challenges us both physically and mentally.  But we’re here, we’re doing it, and most importantly, we’re doing it together. read more

Back To School Workout

Workout

It’s that time of year! The time when back packs are filled with new supplies and folks head off to the hallowed halls of education. And what better way to celebrate than with an awesome workout!

This workout has 3 rounds (or periods if you will) that are 8 minutes each. The format changes up each round as we head off to our different classes. There’s also 90 seconds of recess in between each round, but more on that later… read more

Baking Up A Storm (Ottawa/WWW)

I’m not much of a baker. One time, many years ago, I brought cookies to a Christmas potluck. They were delicious. One of my co-workers asked me if I made them, and I confidently replied “Yes!”. I mean, I had bought the dough, but I rolled it, cut it with the cookie cutter, and placed the festive shapes in the oven. I was the one who removed them from the oven and put some coloured sprinkles on them. And I was the one who transported said cookies into the office for the enjoyment of my colleagues.  read more

Name Game (Ottawa)

Good morning, YOWzers!

Thanks to you it was a delightful mix of silly movements, smiles & sweat. 

Since Becca and Ryan are still enjoying some time on the California coast, this blog will be 99% less punny. By now you may have seen way too much coverage of NP Summit 9 in San Diego on social media, and we are very sensitive to the fact that it was not accessible for many people for many reasons this year. Some day – when travel is easier, when covid is less of/not a concern, when the location is closer – we really encourage you to consider attending. If you want to hear some of the Summit stories, come let’s have a chat, or search the #NPSUMMIT tag on instagram – the warmth of the California sun, and the NP Smiles shine through strongly.  read more

Over and out, October. Onto November at…(Toronto)

Darker mornings, unseasonably warm conditions and more NP fun! October brought us to Trinity Bellwoods Park for the month (except for our Thanksgiving Monday pop-up workout) where we got to make use of all of that wonderful grassy (and sometimes muddy) park space in the west end. With November coming up, we’re happy to let you know that we’ll be heading back to gates 10/11 outside the Rogers Centre for the winter months beginning on Wednesday, Nov. 3. We’ll revisit NP field trips in the spring/summer when it’s light out earlier and we don’t need to worry about snow. Thanks to everybody for their location suggestions. If we didn’t go to a location you suggested, know that we are considering it for 2022. read more

Field Trips and BINGO

Group picture of November Project Toronto

November Project Toronto had a busy August and it looks like there will be more of the same in September! Now that we’ve been back in person for a month, we want to try something new.

That’s right, for the rest of September, all of our workouts will be at Riverdale Park East. Meet on the west side of Broadview Ave. just south of Langley Ave. near St. Matthews Clubhouse. read more
