TODAY! Cardio Flow for WM

Experts who help others manage their peripheral neuropathy recommend an exercise regimen that incorporates strength and balance, which is one reason why the IWMF offers classes like Cardio Flow. Get your body moving with repetitive, simple movements within the safe space of our WM community. Improve blood flow, balance, and mobility! Optional: stick around to connect with the WM wellness community after class. Reach out to Ann if you’d like the Zoom invite or recording at [email protected].

T’ai Chi & Qi Gong 

Tuesday, February 6th at 2:00PM EST

Get on the mailing list now for this exciting new offering! Join Rami Rones to safely explore the ancient mind-body therapies of T’ai Chi and Qi Gong. The meditative state achieved during practice can help reduce anxiety and stress while boosting your mood, immune system, and energy levels. Slow, low-impact movements can increase muscle mass and bone density, ease aches and pains, gently stretch muscles, and improve your balance.
