WHAT DOES IT TAKE TO LEAD A WALKING MOAI?

Moai Team leaders play an integral role in a successful Walking Moai by forming a team of 5-8 members, encouraging attendance and tracking Moai metrics.

Team Leader Responsibilities:

  1. Register each member of your Moai (including yourself) using the form to your right.

  2. Set a time and place for your group to meet and walk at least 30 minutes once a week for ten weeks. 

  3. Report your group’s progress and time spent together each week online. Look for a link to track your metrics in the weekly emails.

What is a Walking Moai? 

 

The term “moai” (pronounced mow-eye) comes from Okinawa, Japan. It means “meeting for a common purpose,” and originated as a way for villagers to support each other in times of need.

 

Blue Zones Project® Walking Moais are groups of 5 to 8 people who walk together at least once a week for 10 weeks to points of interest throughout the community. Walking Moais are a great way to meet new friends and stay healthy.
