Barbara, world champion in the 1000 meters in 2005, will make her debut on September 4. She does this alongside Duco Bauwens, who has been involved in since 2007 The Netherlands in motion. The former top athlete is ‘really looking forward to it’, she says.
“Presenting The Netherlands in motion fits in perfectly with the work I’ve been doing since I stopped skating: getting people moving, from young to old,” Barbara reports. She and Duco are already busy coming up with exercises. “Then I realize what all comes with it. You want to do it as well as possible in that fifteen minutes: the exercises must be possible for everyone, both standing and sometimes using a chair, and you want to give attention to all muscle groups. I expect the viewer to enjoy it as much as I do now.”
MAX broadcaster Jan Slagter is ‘very happy’ with the arrival of Barbara. “It is important for young and old to keep moving and with the arrival of Barbara I am sure that the Netherlands will get off the couch to do the exercises.”
