Ballard Health Club launches free yoga for cancer classes

There’s a new free yoga class this month at Ballard Health Club, designed specifically for those with cancer and survivors of cancer.

The class, held Saturdays at 4pm through the rest of October, is taught by yoga instructor and cancer survivor Katherine Boury. Boury spent a week in Santa Cruz to be a certified yoga4cancer instructor.

“This class isn’t a cure, it’s a safe space to let go and be in your body as you adjust to this temporary or new normal,” BHC says. “The Ballard Health Club wants to provide a safe space for folks to process some of what comes up with diagnosis, treatment, and recovery through the movement of yoga and breath-work.”

The club says the classes are designed to help people deal with the symptoms and side effects of cancer, and to reduce anxiety, depression, fatigue, and stress.

If you want to join the Saturday classes, be sure to bring a photo ID to the club.

I Visit Website and I’m convinced that the psychology of human influence is used everywhere. Therefore, we need to be as full and detached from this as possible.

  2. I believe that these are very important measures for maintaining both the physical body and the mental. Moreover, the problems in this regard can be of a different nature. I recently read about the signs of fear of intimacy and realized that this is also true for me. It’s great that now there is so much information in the public domain, thanks to which I can better understand and solve my problems.
