Yoga Stand Down
5:45 - 6:30 PM
Adventures in Training with a Purpose
7000 Stonewood Drive, Suite 115A, Wexford, PA 15090
Complementary health approaches, such as meditation and yoga, hold promise for treating the physiological and emotional states of PTSD. A regular meditation and yoga practice can improve sleep, boost mood, and ease chronic pain and depression symptoms.
This 45-minute class is designed to help you learn safe and effective stretching, breathing, and relaxation techniques that empower you to alleviate your stressors — both during the session and outside of class. You’ll discover ways to reflect rather than react. Take time to stand down and experience a moment of peacefulness.
This is a non-religious and non-spiritual class. Wear comfortable clothes, and bring a mat, towel, and/or cushion on which to sit.
We've partnered with Adventures in Training with a Purpose (ATP) to offer this program at their facility in Wexford, PA. ATP is focused on improving the quality of life for veterans, active duty military, and first responders through their specialized division called Aurelius, which helps individuals achieve a better tomorrow through a holistic mind, body, and soul program.
This program is open to anyone who has ever served in the military and a guest. Participants must be 18 years of age or older.
Military Bike Ride - Airport Connector
Saturday, April 26 | 9:00 AM
Montour Trail
Meet Up Details TBA
Our bicycle rides are a great way to explore Western Pennsylvania and beyond. The rides are hosted by Leo McCarthy, Army veteran and retired Moon Township police chief. Leo works hard to plan our rides, peppering them with an ounce of fun and a dash of history.
The rides are social in nature and limited to a small group of 15 riders. We take our time and enjoy the camaraderie. Most rides are between 15 and 20 miles. If you don't have a bike, we may be able to help you. Email Christine for information.
This tour incorporates a wide variety of riding environments including some moderate hills for a 17-mile round trip. While the official trail is mostly closed to motor vehicles, it does incorporate two dead-end streets. We will ride on a gated, closed, paved road for miles passing the tunnel for the Allegheny County Fire Training Academy and riding under the new Southern Expressway. Clinton Road leads to the rear airport entrance. It begins with a narrow shoulder for 2/10s of a mile before becoming very wide at the hill-crest. We will ride along airport runways, and after traversing the airport parking area, we will arrive at the main terminal and moving walkway. Our return trip is much more down hill, faster and easier.
THIS RIDE ONLY: A free lunch will be provided at Mission BBQ in Robinson Township for those who wish to attend.
Exact meet up details will be provided the day prior to the ride.
REQUIREMENTS
- Open to anyone who served in the U.S. military and one guest. Be sure to register your guest.
- All riders must be 18 years of age or older.
- Riders of all skill levels are welcome, though they should be familiar with the basics of shifting bicycle gears.
- All riders are required to bring their own personal protection equipment. If you don't have a bike, we may be able to help you. Email Christine for information.
- Riders must sign a waiver prior to the ride.
- Allow for about two hours for the ride, not including lunch.
