New Activities

Restorative Yoga

For a $5 activity fee and the $15 yearly membership, restorative yoga is available on Thursdays at 11:00 am. (Last day May 14, and will resume in the Fall, date to be determined.)

As our Restorative Yoga program wraps up for the season, we would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to our wonderful instructor, Nichole, for her guidance, patience, and encouragement throughout the sessions. Participants enjoyed not only the relaxation and gentle movement, but also the many health benefits restorative yoga provides, including improved flexibility, balance, mobility, stress reduction, and overall wellbeing.

For summertime yoga programs check out Nichole’s Website: https://newpathhealth.ca/gym/

The program offered a welcoming space to connect, unwind, and stay active together. We look forward to bringing Restorative Yoga back in the late fall and encourage anyone who has been thinking about trying it to join us for a supportive and enjoyable experience.
