*Virtual* RTPfit:Yoga
The mission of our RTPFit programs has always been to encourage an active lifestyle and to promote a healthy work/life balance. Work looks different these days but taking the time to connect to our bodies and our minds does not have to change.
Join us over Zoom from 12:00-12:50 p.m. for this week’s yoga class: Gentle Yoga. Enjoy a calm and relaxing class for those times when your body is in need of comfort or restoration. This class is a reminder that sometimes the best thing to do is to move slowly and in a soothing manner to help release stress and tightness All levels welcome, and requests or modifications will be encouraged!
