I am an Adult Instructor in a First Nations community and we have a group that does Boot Camp, an 30-45 minute exercise routine that we advertise by word of mouth.

I know that we can cultivate our PLN’s by joining a common group via Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and from there, network with hashtags into something more specific that align like-minded interests.

I will suggest to our Boot Camp group to cultivate our PLN through Instagram because our small group of Boot Camp members are all connected to so many people within the community as friends.  If we all do a common hashtag and invite those friends, and in our posts, we talk about our three themes: Nutrition, Exercise and Sleep/Meditation that I created by Google Draw, then our small Boot Camp will grow into a larger virtual one.  As a matter of fact, our small virtual Boot Camp community would spread into other neighbouring First Nations communities too.

In short, our small Boot Camp exercise group will expand virtually through social networking and hopefully, someone else will start their own small Boot Camp exercise group, and so on.  It’s community-based and our Boot Camp workouts take place in our school.  Students are invited too and they’ll spread the word with social networking too.  And finally, it’s not a competition; it’s all about supporting each other and our goals.
