I don't know if you have heard of the Sports for All Foundation. They have
an excellent program that teaches yoga, zoomba, circuit training and much
more. I have happely copied Megan Graf and she can give you more about their
wonderful programs. I don't know where you are from or if their is a
foundation in your area, but Sports 4All in TN is offering training classes
to bring their Project Health classes to all agencies.
I hope this helps your group.
