This new exercise group is being established for people who have been diagnosed with Stage I-IV cancer within the past two years and who are undergoing or have completed cancer treatment. The purpose of the program is to introduce exercise in a safe and supportive environment and to empower individuals to manage their own physical activity and wellness.

 

All training sessions will be designed and supervised by Certified Cancer Exercise Trainer and Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialists. Exercise prescriptions will be adjusted according to the fitness and functional capacity of each individual. Each participant must obtain medical clearance before the training starts. The purpose of the program is to introduce exercise in a safe and supportive environment and to empower individuals to manage their own physical activity and wellness.
