Elevate with Exercise
Leading week 2 of Elevate with Exercise, SO Alberta's very own Celeste Soete will be guiding us through a session on balance.
Celeste got started with Special Olympics through motionball Marathon of Sport, as the Director of Volunteers in the inaugural year of the event in 2017. Since then Celeste has taken on coaching role in both the floor hockey and strength training programs, and is the head coach for the recreational golf program. She has recently joined the team at Special Olympics Alberta as the new the Fund Development Coordinator. In her free time Celeste enjoys hanging out with her cats Maurice and Seymour or searching for the best sandwich in town and her favorite ways to stay active are walking, swimming and lifting weights at the gym. The values of Special Olympics resonated with Celeste immediately, after meeting the athletes and volunteers involved in the organization she was sold on the mission, she explained that "when you interact with people involved in Special Olympics you immediately feel the positive energy and spirit of inclusion". She describes herself as a "lifer" when it comes to being involved with the organization.
