Join us and special guest Jill Hinson at Ciavarella Field in River Park for an evening dedicated to helping women and men battling breast cancer. We’ll shake it to Dolly Parton and shimmy to Aretha Franklin, moving our bodies in a fun and playful way to wake up our lymphatic system. We’ll sprinkle in a little exercise with a little fun and some education, of course. We encourage all ages and fitness levels to come, and Pilates experience definitely isn’t a prerequisite.
We will also honor those in our community who are battling breast cancer and learn about Core Compassion Project and the work we are doing here in Sacramento to support their mission of healing through movement.
Registration for the event opens at 5:00 pm and class with Jill Hinson will start at 5:30 pm. So arrive early with your mat to get your setup out on the baseball pitch!
Following class, light beverages and bites will be available, as well as the opportunity to learn more about Jill and her non-profit, Core Compassion Project, and how we can all contribute to helping those in our local community battling breast cancer.
Nephesh Pilates is currently in the process of training our staff in Jill’s movement method for breast cancer recovery and becoming an affiliate of her non-profit Core Compassion Project (CCP). CCP provides support and healing to people affected by breast cancer through scholarships for 1:1 Pilates-based training, lymphedema sleeves and post-mastectomy bras. And every dollar that we raise at our MATraiser comes right back to our community in the form of these scholarships. So this isn’t money that’s going to some faceless non-profit. You will be directly impacting your community by participating.
We hope that you can join us in supporting those affected by breast cancer in our community for a fun and educational evening of movement, laughter and love.
