Mellisa Sandefur, Nominated by Possibility Place
Mellisa Sandefur from Thrive Fitness (www.thrivefree.org), has been coming to Possibility Place for several months (twice a month) to lead their adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities in an exercise/movement class. This is no ordinary exercise class. She has their adults (some of whom do NOT like exercise) moving, dancing and exercising with drumsticks to wonderful music. Staff says that they have a great time and they don’t even realize they are exercising and getting healthier! They added that Mellisa is so wonderful with their adults and they are seeing improvements in their willingness and movement already! Mellisa will receive a certificate from Volunteer Rutherford and a $25 gift card courtesy of Guaranty Trust.
