ENCORE

YWencore

ENCORE is a unique program combining physical and emotional support with education for women who are going through or have recently completed treatment for cancer.

Water Exercise

Rebuild range of motion and strength through exercises in the YWCA 88ยบ pool.  Classes include some cardiovascular work and end with relaxation techniques.

Networking Group

The YWCA ENCORE group meets monthly and features local practitioners sharing information related to survivorship and treatment.

After surgery, many women experience loss of mobility and discomfort as well as emotional issues such as anxiety, decreased self-image, and feeling overwhelmed.

ENCORE can help you:

  • Improve mobility and flexibility
  • Improve general fitness and well-being
  • Boost self-esteem and self-image
  • Relieve discomfort associated with surgery and treatment
  • Reduce the potential risk for lymphedema
  • Reduce treatment-related fatigue
  • Create a positive attitude toward life and health
  • Maintain and control your weight
