Nearly 120 Step for the Republic
On Wednesday, November 18, nearly 120 students, academicians and personnel from Bilkent, METU, Ankara, Başkent, Hacettepe and Gazi universities took part in a special step-funk master class at Bilkent for the 75th anniversary of the Republic.

Participants started their exercise by warming up with instructor Pelin Beğen and they continued with Ersin Uysal's more complicated figures. After the stepping came the cardio-funk class, a vigorous dance mixed with exercise. All the participants enjoyed themselves. At the end of the activity and the beginning of the reception all the participants were given t-shirts by Prof. Erol Arkun and Dr. Hayri Özkan as a memento of the day.

Why did they bring step and cardio funk together? They wanted to attract a wide range of people from different parts of the society to get together to reach a goal, symbolic of our Republic's spirit.

Don't forget: a healthy mind requires a healthy body.

(Burak Tarcan IE-II)
