Yoga and Zumba at Hillwood Meditation Centre, Tasmania
Physical activity which focusses on breathing, rhythm and/or choreography is a great way to calm the mind and develop concentration without sitting in meditation. Those who find traditional meditation difficult might prefer one of these more active options.
