Yoga for First Responders & Community

This class is a space to build strength safely, reconnect to your breath, and restore calm in both body and mind.

Designed with First Responders in mind, this class offers stress management tools to help process the weight of the work, regulate the nervous system, and enhance performance without sacrificing well-being.

But this space is not exclusive.
Because stress does not discriminate.

Whether you serve on the front lines, in an office, at home, or in your community — we all carry responsibility, pressure, and unseen load.

In this class, you will:

• Build strength that creates safety and trust within your body
• Develop breath practices that bring calm in moments of intensity
• Learn tools to manage stress and anxiety both on and off the mat
• Experience deeper relaxation to support recovery and clarity

All levels. All backgrounds. All professions.
Everyone is welcome here.

This is more than a workout — it is training for your nervous system.
A place to rebuild steadiness, reconnect to your breath, and leave feeling grounded, capable, and restored.

3 PM on May 31st at the Essence of Healing Yoga, and Wellness studio in Stony Plain

If you have an active membership with FSWCP, you may sign up for this free online workshop.

How often do you “second-guess” yourself?

Do you doubt your own competence? Or your worth?

Do you doubt other women’s competence? Or their motives?

Have you blamed yourself for the actions of someone else?

Ever thought: “women are own worst enemies?”

In Part One, we recognized a lifetime of sexist messages results in many of us doubting our
competence, our leadership, even our self-worth. And if I doubt me, then I must doubt the
competence, the leadership, the worth of other women. Once we have been socialized to our
role in this sexist system, we collude with sexism – unintentionally.
Picking up from our conversations during from Part 1 we’ll help each other dig deeper to
confront our internal doubts and the impact on our performance. Together we’ll explore
strategies to interrupt our patterns of self doubt, lack of confidence and mistrust of other
women, so we can all perform our very best.
The fire service mission needs our skills, our courage and our leadership. Let’s help each other
be powerful.
