Black History Month Proves Eventful for Weininger Irwin

DAGENHAM, U.K. - Oct. 24, 2014 - PRLog -- This month has been a busy one for event host and compere Weininger Irwin, who was invited to Little Ilford School on 14^th October as a special guest to speak at their assembly. He returned on 21^st to host the school’s Black History Showcase and went down a storm with the children who, along with the teaching staff, heaped nothing but praise. Heavily involved in youth sports coaching and a regular at youth sports events and local family town shows and festivals, Weininger is well known for his ability to inspire and enthuse – and entertain!

Carnival Fitness Fiesta at Becontree Leisure Centre
Still to come this month as part of the Black History Month celebrations, Becontree Leisure Centre is holding a big event that’s set to take the borough by storm. It's a two-part SOCA vs RAGGA Notting Hill Carnival Aerobics Class – and if that sounds intriguing – it is! The first session starts in the sports hall at 1pm with Weininger and a fellow instructor leading the fun, and there's an evening session starting at 8pm where Weininger will be taking the class alongside his SOCA queen fitness instructor and former world karate champion Janice Irwin. Anyone who adores working out in carnival style will be in for a treat!

Saturday Night Out
And if all that wasn’t enough Weininger also made his regular appearance at Saturday Night Out in Islington on the 25th. The monthly event is a youth project for 13-19 year olds who are invited to join in a range of sports and activities including football, basketball, roller skating, trampolining, ice skating and lots more. There's also a talent zone for would-be stars to showcase their talent. Weininger attends to get the kids all geed up in his official capacity as crowd warmer. It's held at the Sobell Leisure Centre in Islington and any young people aged 13-19 are welcome to attend.

WRS Resistance Sliding is a competitive sport officially recognised by the Sport and Recreation Alliance. Developed in 2002, it allows people of all ages and physical ability to compete by using their own bodyweight to race by sliding from point A to B. It is also an ideal training complement for a variety of sports because it isolates and stimulates specific muscle groups, therefore conditioning and strengthening at the same time.
