You’ve seen the Encore folks in action at the BRIGHT Run. Now you can participate in this unique program for those who have had breast cancer – in the comfort of your own home.
This YWCA program is a free, 8-week exercise and educational program starting Oct. 7 on Zoom. The classes are designed for those who have had mastectomy, lumpectomy or breast reconstruction surgery at any time in their lives.
Each class includes an educational presentation by a guest speaker, along with time for sharing and discussion. Then there are a series of gentle exercises aimed at increasing strength, mobility and flexibility.
Pre-registration is required for this virtual program, which takes place on Thursdays from 1.30 to 3.30 p.m., starting Oct. 7.
