We’ve teamed up again with RecWell and the Carlson Undergraduate Wellbeing Program to bring you a fresh way to de-stress this fall. Join us on Fridays on the West Bank to stretch, strengthen, and clear your mind. Whether you’re an undergraduate writing your first research paper, a grad student deep in dissertation mode, or staff and faculty taking a lunch break—this space is for you.

Why you’ll love it:

• Boost focus & mood: Great for low-impact core strength and clearing mental clutter.

• Completely FREE: No RecWell membership or FitPass required.

• Beginner-Friendly: All fitness levels welcome. Come as you are!

• Mats Provided: Bring your own if you have one, but we have extras available.

Drop in, de-stress, and leave feeling recharged!
