CONDUCTORCISE® "A
Sound Workout For Mind, Body And Soul"
Created, developed and registered to Maestro David Dworkin
AUTHORIZED CERTIFICATION PROGRAM

Maestro Dworkin with Dr. Robert Landry, President of My Masterpiece Living.
Why CONDUCTORCISE® As A Certification
Program And…
Why For You?
The International
Conference on Active Aging has just chosen David Dworkin’s popular new
fitness fusion concept, CONDUCTORCISE®, as one of north america’s
six most innovative active aging programs.
CONDUCTORCISE® is an exhilarating and
unique alternative to “traditional” exercise
programs and has been hailed nationally as one of the best programs
for wellness and Mind-Body.
CONDUCTORCISE® is
the only program of its kind in the world. Now, you have the opportunity
to earn extra income while delivering this truly unique and effective
program to your clients. You will be provided with all the tools
and techniques to offer this program in your area to individuals,
senior communities, independent and assisted living facilities,
libraries, schools, individuals and corporations. It is low impact,
fun, educational, and combines motion and music as no other program
does. The combination of exercise (even low impact to moderate)
combined with sharpening and learning new listening skills allows
participants to keep ones “body and mind in tune”,
reduces stress, improves cognition, secures balance, increases
circulation, manages diabetes, builds upper body strength and so
much more.
It is one of the few fitness programs
in the world that provides all the above not only to healthy
individuals both young and old, but to those who are chair bound,
challenged, or suffering from Alzheimer, stroke, dementia and
challenged individuals as well.
The
CONDUCTORCISE® Program:
Recently designated by The
International Conference on Active Aging as one of only
six national programs to receive the "ICAA Industry
Innovators Award For Creativity, Excellence And Efforts To
Advance The Field Of Physical Activity And Aging",
CONDUCTORCISE® ranks
among the most imaginative fitness programs anywhere in the world.
Conceived
by Maestro David Dworkin, CONDUCTORCISE® is
the culmination of David's lifetime devotion to, and passion
for music and motion, and all the documented benefits it provides
for Mind and Body. Early on in his distinguished career as a
symphony conductor, he began to sense that there was a relationship
between the sounds and movements of music that contributed to "well
being," both mentally and physically. His sense of elation
after conducting a performance or rehearsal left him feeling
so good physically and mentally, that he wanted to find a way
to "pay
forward" the euphoria he felt.
CONDUCTORCISE® gradually
took shape in his mind. He began to identify suitable music
and movements, developed spoken introduction and background and
descriptions, and compiled historical information and colorful
anecdotes - all of which have contributed to the appeal and effectiveness
of his fitness fusion program, which are highlighted in his
personal appearances.
The program has been nationally and
internationally hailed, and has been featured in publications
from the New York Times, Town and Country Magazine, American
Senior Fitness Association newsletter, New Idea (Australia),
Times Colonist (Canada) and television shows including The Today Show,
New Jersey Network, and Retirement Living TV’s Living
Live! With Florence Henderson and Meshak Taylor and more.
But the Maestro can only
be in one place at one time, so...after many requests from his
followers,
he has decided to expand the CONDUCTORCISE® family
and create a Certification Program. It is designed to make the
program more widely available, and bring his creative vision to
people in communities across the globe.
Purpose:
The purpose of our certification program
is to give dedicated professionals, in all areas of wellness, exercise
enthusiasts, music lovers and health and educational organizations
the ability to share this unique concept in promoting longevity
and a healthy way of living. Participation in Conductorcise® does
this through a series of movements related to the art of orchestral
conducting to music selected by Maestro Dworkin specifically for
the program. The attention to sound and the coordination of body
movement to music are known to contribute to the stimulation of
the brain, creating new brain cells, muscular development and release
of endorphins. All create a level of energy, awareness of one’s
surroundings, a lightness of attitude, a reduction of stress and
depression, and most importantly, participants consistently leave
Conductorcise® sessions
energized and in high spirits.
