    Description

    Do you enjoy Yoga and teaching others to live healthier lives? Volunteer to facilitate a yoga class for seniors living at Linda Glen Apartments in Oakland! We are looking for a volunteer to teach yoga, or help host the activity by setting up and using specific YouTube video on the TV in the Community Room. Volunteer can participate but not necessary. The activity is for 1 hr sessions weekly, on Monday, 2pm-3pm.

    By hosting the yoga class you will help to give seniors an outlet for physical activity and help them to enrich their overall wellness. The volunteer will prepare an agenda for each class and lead residents through various exercises while providing positive feedback and support. If you're looking to make a difference in your community, this is a wonderful opportunity to gain teaching experience with students who are eager to learn.

    Requirements: Ongoing SAHA Community Volunteers must commit to volunteer a minimum of 4 months, and must complete a volunteer orientation, volunteer forms and background screening prior to beginning their placement.
