Whether you are looking to banish early morning aches with gentle stretches to loosen your joints, or you just want something to energise you during the working day, then Radio Taiso could be just the exercise program for you!

Performed with a nice light rhythm, the aim of these exercises is to allow you to move more easily as you develop well-balanced muscles and nice supple joints throughout your entire body.
If you are someone that has tried a range of fitness routines over the years you may not believe that such simple moves could possibly do you any good.

Radio Taiso - Richie Neville
Introduction to Radio Taiso.
RAISE your energy levels and encourage good health with this simplified English language version of the famous Radio Taiso calisthenic exercise routine.
What is Radio Taiso?
Literally meaning ‘radio exercises’, it is a series of gentle, yet invigorating bodyweight movements designed to warm the body up, raise energy levels and encourage overall good health. The 'radio' part comes simply from the fact the instructions and tempo for performing these exercises are broadcast on the radio in Japan.
Whether you are looking to banish early morning aches with gentle stretches to loosen your joints, or you just want something to energise you during the working day, then Radio Taiso could be just the exercise program for you!
Exercises for health and vigour.
Exercise routines that can be performed by any age, fitness and gender for EQUAL benefit are hard to come by. The first Radio Taiso series of exercises however is one such routine. Performed with a nice light rhythm, the aim of these exercises is to allow you to move more easily as you develop well-balanced muscles and nice supple joints throughout your entire body. This isn’t bodybuilding, this is building a better body!
History of Radio Taiso.
Japanese radio calisthenics emerged in the 1920's and have been performed in schools and workplaces ever since for building HEALTH. The program is also used to build a sense of COMMUNITY in neighbourhoods, where the exercises are performed all together by young and old alike.
What are radio calisthenics?
In a nutshell, they are simply exercises set to a musical radio accompaniment. Every day an instructor plays special music to guide the listeners through the movements. They are workouts that practically every Japanese person knows by heart, having learnt some variation from a very young age.
They are an extremely popular form of exercise in Japan and it is estimated up to 10 MILLION people practice them regularly. They are becoming even MORE popular (including globally) as their many health benefits are championed by medical experts.
What are the fitness benefits of these Exercises?
The primary benefit of these exercises is that they put joints through their full range of possible motion. In daily life, joint movements usually fall well short of their full range, so muscles can gradually shrink. Simply by moving your body through a FULL range of motion every day you can see how your body will keep working better for longer. The exercises can also improve agility and posture, which can in turn help with simple things
