About the Program
- Weigh in weekly or on the first and last week. Up to you – the scale is just one way to measure success. Bring a journal. You just hop on the scale and write down your weight yourself as you enter. Again, the scale will be ONE way to notice improvement.
- Following weigh-in there will be a group chat where instructors will give a “tip of the week” or a healthy habit of the week. You will then receive a challenge of the week to work on that’s related to the tip.
- This is NOT a WW meeting. This will be a support group to live a life of healthy habits and healthier choices, in hopes of reaching the personal goals we set for ourselves. You are your own competition!
- Following the group chat, Debra Halley will do a type of yoga class. Each 6 week block will be a different type of yoga class and will build as you get stronger. She can adapt moves so everyone benefits. The first block is chair yoga.
- There will be no classes during the month of December or during the summer.
- You commit to six week blocks at a time.
If you would like to join a group that helps motivate you and backs you with support, this is it!
