Overview
Join us for this kids’ yoga class featuring our Dempsey Dogs! Youth ages 5-11 are invited to join our Dempsey Dogs for a fun, active yoga experience – ’doga’! Meet other youth impacted by cancer and learn fun, dog-inspired, beginner yoga movements while bonding with our therapy dogs! All materials are provided, and participants will leave with a set of their very own Dempsey Doga cards.
Dempsey Dogs are trained and registered by Pet Partners. Therapy dogs can help to provide emotional support and alleviate stress, improve moods, and help kids to gain the strength and confidence to overcome challenges they might face. Add yoga to the mix with all its proven benefits and you have a ‘Doga’ class!
