NEW Couch to Cardio Exercise Classes

Are you feeling like a couch potato lately? 

Have your breathing difficulties slowed you down into a sedentary lifestyle? We understand. This is a common experience of those living with chronic lung conditions. It can be a challenge to get up and start moving. Have no worries, we are here to help! We'll teach you the breathing techniques that you can use with movement, to stay in control of breath, reduce stress, and improve fitness and wellbeing!

For only $30 a month, this is a deal you shouldn't miss!!

Let's get you moving in a gentle way that feels good. Our Couch to Cardio classes are designed specifically for you! We'll be doing comfortable movements in seated or standing (you decide what feels right for you). Our Respiratory Therapist instructors will teach you how to adjust your movements to keep you in that target breathing zone. A zone where you can breathe and talk while moving. 

Here's what people are saying about Couch to Cardio exercise classes.

The Couch to Cardio classes are teaching me about pacing and breathing while exercising. These classes are a great way to get exercise without feeling overwhelmed, in the comfort of your own home.
