Yoga at the YMCA!

Today, the Healthy Lifestyles gang went to the YMCA to participate in the Gentle Yoga Stretch Class. We used chairs to do supported yoga in this class with other community members! Using the chairs made us feel successful in our yoga practice. There were also opportunities to stand up and use the chair for balance. We felt safe, and we'd love to do it again!

"I felt like this yoga class was a great fit for our group. I really enjoyed watching the members being able to be independent in this class. It was nice to see everyone follow our instructor's instructions. I felt personally like I really needed to stretch my shoulders, and after this class my body feels stretched out and great!" - Yoga Star
