Community

Wow. It was just over a year ago we took our classes on-line. Thank you for showing up and showing us how important we are to your healthy lifestyle. I can’t thank you enough for all the kind words and encouragement along the way. My deepest gratitude to all of you. I love our community and how we have shown up for each other as residents, small business owners and lovers of everything local. Let’s keep up the momentum of continual support of one another, it makes a difference much bigger than our immediate circumstance. Together we are setting the foundation to a future we would not have imagined a year ago. I like where we’re going. This is our opportunity to independently and collectively make choices to take care of ourselves and one another. I know it hasn’t been easy on any of us. And to those of you that have suffered losses, my deepest sympathy. Like all challenges, we come out wiser and better prepared for our next challenge. What I observed during this pandemic was BHC members supporting our local food banks, navigating new norms, and looking out for one another. Well done! We’re not out of it yet, but I feel confident that as we move forward we will continually forge new ways to stay connected and healthy. 

 BHC classes will continue online and we will slowly bring classes back into the club as interest increases and Covid restrictions lessen. But don’t worry, if you’ve enjoyed online classes we do plan on continuing with an online presence. We are in that great unknown stage of creating something new. I can’t say what it will look like exactly but we do plan on moving forward with having both in-person and online classes available. 

 We want to take advantage of the good weather and will be offering yoga classes every Saturday morning at 10:30am and Wednesday evening at 6:30pm starting in June, if it does not rain at Sunset Hill Park. Bring your mat, dress appropriately, socially distance and walk there if you can. We will offer pop-up classes in June/July/August in the park as well. 

 Shout out to all of you Ballard Health Club members, thank you! I’ll see you in class!
