Free Yoga Classes At Penn Medicine Valley Forge

Posted on 03:00 by Unknown

Penn Integrative Medicine invites patients and caregivers to try yoga at Penn Medicine Valley Forge as a way to support the mind, body and spirit during and after treatment.

This free class is open to people on all levels, from beginners to advanced practitioners, and is a very gentle and therapeutic yoga practice.

The practice of yoga during cancer treatment can be helpful on many levels--managing side effects of cancer, including nausea and fatigue. Yoga can also promote better sleep and deep relaxation through the simple act of breathing.

Join us in Valley Forge for Yoga

Days: Thursdays
Time: 1 to 2:15 pm
Location: Penn Medicine Valley Forge, Main Lobby Conference Room, 1001 Chesterbrook Boulevard, Berwyn, PA 19312

Participants will be asked to make a donation of their choice to Penn's Yoga Program for each class attended.
