Valentine's Day Partner Yoga

February 14 at 8am

Join this all levels special yoga class! This class will include mindful poses and stretches like a usual yoga class, but unlike a normal yoga class, you will be working with a partner for the poses, which will include touch. It will also include a small tutorial for giving the other person a hand and/or foot massage at the end of class. For YMCA members only. Registration is open on the app!

At the Y, our mission is to help build a healthy spirit, mind, and body for all. In light of the alarming overdose statistics in our area, the Y wants to help parents, employers, and churches understand the opioid epidemic and give concrete ways to help prevent prescription drug misuse and abuse. We're hosting a FREE opioid abuse prevention awareness day to anyone who would like to come. There will be food provided as well as access to the YMCA and our hydromassage bed for the day.

Dates: February 28 and April 10
Time: 1:00pm
