In the Community

Our therapists love to be active in the community! Here are just some of the things that we have been involved in. If you are interested in any of the activities, more information is available in the links on the title.

POTS YOGA

Sarah and Jill are offering a series of classes to help add mobility and various exercises to help alleviate symptoms of POTS as well as help improve your activity level. Here is the link for the upcoming session. Sign up fast though, we can only accomidate 15 people per session! Please bring your own mat.

The first class is on March 29th, 2025 and it will include a slow flow in an entirely flat laying position and educate patients on breathing techniques that are used to decrease heart rate and calm the autonomic nervous system.

We are excited to announce that we will continue to offer POTS yoga throughout the months of April and May, offering classes on April 5, April 19, April 26, May 10, May 17, and May 31.

Each class is $30 and bundles are offered at 6-classes for $150 and 12 classes for $275.

There are many benefits to yoga classes including but not limited to: activation of the parasympathetic nervous system ("rest and digest" system), building core strength and stability, immune function improvement, and digestive benefits.

Weight Lifting 101

We are excited to announce a new program called Weight Lifting 101. Dr. Taylor Goodwill will be leading this series to help keep our athletes and patients safe when they are working out in the gym. We will be covering proper warm up techniques, core engagement for loaded activities, and proper techniques for classic lifts. These lifts will include deadlifts, RDLs, bench press, shoulder press, and other traditional exercises.

The first class will focus on the lower body. Additional classes will be held for upper body and other power exercises. The goal is to have everyone learn the proper form then move onto circuit style training classes.

The first upcoming class will be Saturday, May 10th at 12pm at
Advantage Physical Therapy. Classes are limited to 5 people and are $30 per session.
