Despite the strong sun, around 100 people were present, shaking up Posto 9 with lots of excitement and sports activities such as soccer, karate, stretching, localized gymnastics and floor pilates.

– Mexe Vila is a great opportunity for students to learn new exercises, not to mention that the view of Recreio Beach is beautiful, a great incentive to practice outdoor physical activities. It is important to remember that registrations for the 300 new spots at Vila “Didi” are now open and must be done in person – declared the deputy mayor of Barra, Recreio and Vargens, Raphael Lima.

For the coordinator of the Waldir Pereira Olympic Village, Valnei Faria, Mexe Vila is a unique opportunity for students.

– Doing physical activities outdoors brings a series of benefits to the body and mind. Exercising in nature provides a feeling of well-being, helping to reduce stress and anxiety. In addition, exposure to the sun promotes the production of vitamin D, which is essential for bone health and the immune system. Mexe Vila aims to take the Vila beyond its facilities, providing its students with an experience different from their everyday lives, in addition to promoting to the population the various activities that make up the sports equipment. The first edition was held in 2021 and was so successful that we are already in our eighth edition.

The “Didi” Olympic Village is located at Alfredo Balthazar da Silveira Avenue, 335, in Recreio dos Bandeirantes.
