Dr. Julia A. Pewitt Kinder is an accomplished national speaker, fitness coach, Down syndrome expert, and practicing physician. She and husband Mitch reside in Cape Girardeau, Mo., with their three children.
The Exercise Right Now™ Fitness Program was developed by Dr. Kinder to assist her busy patients with their fitness:
“I don’t have time to exercise, and besides, I’m too tired to exercise! is the main thing I hear from my patients when I ask them why they are struggling to exercise everyday,” explains Dr. Kinder. “I created the Exercise Right Now™ concept to help my patients exercise throughout their day while they do other things like washing the dishes, playing with their kids on the floor, or even while sitting at a desk. You can exercise while going about your daily routine and it all adds up, because exercise is cumulative. You don’t need to spend hours exercising at the gym, you can Exercise Right Now! I want to show you how to do this.”
Celebrate The UPside of Down™ Syndrome! As one of the leading experts on Down syndrome, Dr. Kinder seeks to promote the UPside of Down.
“My ultimate goal is for the birth of every baby with Down syndrome to be celebrated, and for every baby to receive the care required to maximize their developmental potential,” said Dr. Kinder.
