In a world where staying active and mobile is essential for good health and well-being, it's easy to forget about those who may not have the same opportunities. Nursing home residents often face challenges when it comes to staying active, but one man from Rotterdam is changing that.

Meet Joel, the founder of @bewegen.is.leven (which translates to "movement is life"). Joel is on a mission to get nursing home residents up and moving, all in a playful and enjoyable way.

Joel believes that movement is essential for a happy and healthy life, no matter what your age. That's why he uses games and play to get residents up and active, from gentle stretches to fun dance routines.

Residents of nursing homes all over Rotterdam are benefiting from Joel's innovative approach to movement, with many reporting improved mobility, reduced pain, and a newfound love for exercise.

But it's not just about the physical benefits. Joel believes that movement can also have a positive impact on mental health, helping residents to feel more connected, engaged, and happy.
