ENCORE... Pool Exercise - Peer Support - Community Links

"Encore has taught me that I am capable of handling way more than I ever thought possible. Encore is the most life-affirming fantastic group of women!"
Cheryl, age 40

ENCORE is a highly-respected program created by the YWCA of the U.S.A. for women who have undergone breast cancer surgery. Under the supervision of a YWCA-trained and certified specialist, ENCORE offers:

 

  • Specific pool exercise to help women recover range of motion, strength, endurance and flexibility
  • Comfortable, informal peer support group
  • Community Links to Breast Cancer Health and Welllness Professionals.
  • Now twice weekly at 2 different Santa Monica locations.

 

ENCORE exercises take place in the pool, and have been reviewed and approved by a national committee of medical and health professionals. This free program is offered by the YWCA Santa Monica / Westside with the generous contribution of pool facilities by Loews Santa Monica. Also offered through Team Survivor L.A., (310)477-4669 or www.teamsurvivor-la.org. (Team Survivor members can take FREE exercise and yoga classes and strength training at the YWCA!
