Walk With Ease At Pickens County YMCA

The Pickens County YMCA is proud and excited to announce a great new program for the local community. Whether you need relief from arthritis pain or just want to be active, the Arthritis Foundation Walk with Ease program can help you.

Led by a certified instructor, Walk with Ease will meet for one hour at the Pickens YMCA on Monday, Wednesday and Friday for six weeks starting on Monday, September 17. These one hour sessions are designed to be relaxing and enjoyable and will include health-related discussion topics and self-paced group walks.

The YMCA Senior Activities Coordinator, Kristi Ward, said, “I am so excited to have the Walk with Ease program at the YMCA. Although the program was created by the Arthritis Foundation, it is a great starting place for anyone. The program gives participants the chance to learn how to increase strength, stamina and flexibility. One of the greatest things the class teaches is motivational skills to keep participants going on their fitness journey!”
