ACPS Virtual Chair Yoga Class<\/span><\/h1>\n

ACPS is pleased to announce that we have teamed up with Kaiser Permanente to offer our staff a Virtual Chair Yoga Class! Even if you are not enrolled in ACPS’ Kaiser medical plans, you may join at no cost. Complicated maneuvers and complex movements are not present in a chair yoga class. Within this type of yoga, you can cover standing, seated, and prone postures. This exercise is good for many health issues and is ideal for the workplace. Make no excuses and join us for this fun, and free event!<\/span><\/p>\n

This class will be offered on Oct. 26 at 4:00 p.m. via zoom. <\/span>Sign up for free online<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n
