Join guest workshop host, Linda Hoyt-Russell for a specialized yoga class addressing the emotional needs felt after the diagnosis of cancer and the physical challenges and limitations that develop after treatment.
The cancer survivor population is large and growing due to the advancements in treatments. However, cancer treatment causes various side effects that require management to improve long-term health and survival.
Our Yoga for Cancer Survivors class will include specific gentle yoga poses and breathwork aimed at enhancing immune system function; improving range of motion, increasing bone density; reducing stress and cancer-related fatigue; and improving sleep.
Linda has been specially trained and certified in Yoga 4 Cancer, a style of Oncology Yoga aimed at helping cancer survivors who have completed treatment. The Yoga 4 Cancer methodology is based on science and research. Learn more at yoga4cancer.com
Yoga for Cancer Survivors is suitable for all levels of ability. Students can expect a slow, low-intensity, gentle class.
This class is free for cancer survivors and encourages them to embrace yoga as a personal tool to enhance their recovery and well-being.
