Meet Joe Wicks: The World’s P.E. Teacher
Gareth Copley/Gareth Copley
With schools closed and kids not getting P.E. class, a celebrity fitness instructor from the U.K. is here to help. Joe Wicks, a.k.a. “The Body Coach,” has millions of subscribers to his YouTube channel and, according to PureWow, he’s now doing 30-minutes exercise classes for kids every weekday called P.E. with Joe.
Wicks uses signature moves like the kangaroo and the Pikachu to keep kids interested. He even dresses up in costumes sometimes and encourages his virtual students to do the same.
And don’t think that just because it’s P.E. it’s going to be a cake walk. The Body Coach gives homework assignments!
Joe Wicks also offers home workouts for adults and seniors. You can see them all on his official YouTube channel.
