McGaw YMCA Active Older Adults
Breathing for Better Health Workshop
Tuesday, March 10 at 1:30pm
McGaw YMCA Chinnock Lounge
Join our experienced, specialized YMCA yoga instructor Gina Carpenter, as she shares her expertise and studies in Breathing for Better Health, based upon James Nestor's best-seller "Breath: The New Science of a Lost Art."
Modern research is showing us that making even slight adjustments to the way we inhale and exhale can jump-start exercise performance; rejuvenate internal organs; halt snoring, asthma, and autoimmune disease; and even straighten scoliotic spines. None of this should be possible, and yet it is.
Learn, discuss and practice these techniques in this engaging workshop!
Celebrate with the Y: We are growing in 2026!Celebrate, learn and get your fill of fun! You said, we did and now your McGaw YMCA Active Older Adult experience is brimming with new opportunities in 2026.
Check out participation and volunteer opportunities that abound - for community, by community! Expanded cards & games, movie, ukulele club, yoga workshops, poetry and potlucks are just a few of the features coming your way in Winter 2026.
