Adelaide Encore - free hydrotherapy program
The new dates are on the YWCA Adelaide website for the free Encore program.Basically starts October as term 3 most of us don’t like going out in the cold.
It is an 8 week program , 2 hours per week.Involves one hour hydrotherapy and each week is a guest speaker covering topics relevant to breast cancer.Is also a wonderful opportunity to meet up with others in the same boat - maybe even make new friends.
There are 2 locations - one north and one south.
From a personal viewpoint I found it excellent and highly recommend it.
If you are interested it may be an idea to apply quickly in case it fills.
Will try to paste details below but if am not successful go on YWCA Adelaide website.

- RomlaMemberGreat news - you will enjoy it and find it helpful . Weather is warmer , lighter later and is always a way round most things if we think creatively.Sign in to react to this post
- SisterMember@romla I'm registering for the Encore at the Repat in Term 4. If there are logistical problems, I will deal with them when the time comes, even if it means I have to leave the sessions a little early.Sign in to react to this post

- kmakmMemberI concur with @Zoffiel @Sister. They have seen what you've gone through, they love you, they'll suck it up. It's not indefinite. This is one of those 'putting yourself first' moments. Do it. You love the water and trust me, you'll love feeling the strength returning to your limbs. I have adored my exercise physiology class, and am very sad it's finishing this week. I'm glad I've got another one lined up in September. You must do the Encore programme!Sign in to react to this post
