About Us

AnneOntheBall.com is a community of friends and families created for everyone!

This web site grew out of a desire to share thoughts, feelings, and ideas that came up while Linda Kelly, my friend and co-author, and I were writing our second book together.

Our latest book "Fitness On The Ball: A Core Program for Brain and Body" evolved in many different directions over about 4 years time.

This web site includes:

• Our New Book-> Fitness On The Ball: A Core Program for Brain and Body
• Books from our Bibliography Linked to Buy Now
• Anchoring Ankrons-> Weighted Lap and Shoulder Pads
• Links to Web Sites that We Love
• Shopping for Fitness Balls and Active Seating Devices
• Our Blog

We are extremely proud to offer donations to two programs that we believe in with all our hearts. Anneontheball.com will donate 10% of sales made on the site to the following programs.

First, 5% of sales will go to “Alternative Active Seating Options and Sensory Basket Placement.” This program will provide funds for equipment and consultations with schools and other organizations to bring the concepts presented in our new book to life. I’ll be heading this program up with my friend and mentor Anne Turnacliff.

The second 5% of sales will go to “Empowering People with Parkinson’s Disease” a program that Linda Kelly my co-author will be heading up. Through this program she will shine a light on this disease alongside those like herself who are battling it with every ounce of energy that they have.

Anyone wishing to make a donation to either or both of these programs can contact me (Anne Spalding) at anneontheball@gmail.com for further information.

We hope you enjoy your visit and will come back to check for updates and additions regularly.

Happy trails!!!
