"Upright posture is not just about a healthy spine, a foundation for an active life and ageing with as little pain as possible. Upright posture gives children a better chance to succeed and realise their dreams by boosting self-confidence, self-esteem and by linking self-awareness to the response of others. Posture also reflects how we feel as adults and the world around us responds to what it sees. Humility means strength, energy, freedom and gives us the courage to take a steep step into each new day of life."

“That’s why the Upright Posture program is very welcome. It is tested, professionally based and also user-friendly. Personally, it is very close to me because of the holistic treatment of the child, which not only reminds the child of good posture and equips him with simple exercises that he can perform every day, but also directs him to perceive his own well-being and his body. "

“Awareness is the basis that helps us to notice what our posture is like and further on, awareness helps us to deliberately undertake exercises and perform them correctly. Most importantly: with awareness, we can clearly feel how beneficially the exercises affect both our body and our overall well-being. “

"If a good posture program was indeed introduced, the need for many other prevention programs would probably diminish over time."

“Even in physical education classes, instead of general warm-up exercises, I now include exercises for a healthy upright posture. The kids at the grade level accepted the program really well, we all do the exercises at the beginning of the class or at the end to calm down. In the upper grades, however, they need a little more motivation, for which we, physical education teachers, fit the profile.

"With a crouched posture, the children are telling us that they are not interested in the outside world. This must be a great warning to us. Motivation for children's daily movement is just as important as teaching them how to manage their pain due to poor posture. "

“Poor posture is a problem, of course. We want the prevention program for children, schoolchildren and adolescents to finally be restructured and also wish for effective connections between institutions. Together we want to find an effective systemic solution for the implementation of the Upright Posture program, which was prepared with so much enthusiasm. "

"Most pain syndromes originate in the musculo-fascial system, which can be managed by changing our habits, by proper daily movement, and by focused exercise and self-correction. We need to impart the balance of the musculoskeletal system as early as possible in childhood."

“What you said is true. Mutual cooperation is indeed essential. The content must be included in the curriculum. Playing sports used to represent a healthy lifestyle, but nowadays doing sports is a form of relaxation where the Upright Posture, Good Posture program can easily be included."

"The National institute of Public Health wants to develop in a direction where the Childrens team is strengthened within the Centers for Health Promotion, which are established for adults. Renovation of prevention programs for children and adolescents is being prepared. There is room for an upright posture program here.  Almost 100 nurses in the country work in the health education of children and adolescents outside the pediatric teams, which is a good number of employees, and we want to strengthen this.
