Classes and Events

Community Wellness Events

Community wellness events are scheduled outings that take place about every 4-6 weeks at local nature preserves or wellness sanctuaries. These events are free of charge (except for parking or entrance fees) and are designed for everyone to participate regardless of physical ability or age.

This concept evolved out of a personal need for connection with the natural world and friends, and a recognition of the increasing isolation we all face in our technology driven culture. The simple idea is to create opportunities for all of us to gather, get to know each and the land we live on, and move our bodies in whatever capacity is available to us.

Events will be posted at least a month in advance on this page. Each listing will contain information about the location of the event, potential cost of access (parking or entrance fees), and meeting instructions.

You do not need to reserve a space in advance, so it is okay to decide the morning of the event if you would like to attend, but if you think you might be interested in coming please send me an e-mail at silverwaveacupuncture@proton.me so that I can contact you with any logistical changes due to weather and so I can have a general idea of how many folks to expect. You can also ask to be placed on a mailing list for announcements of events as they come.
