Learn about our women’s fitness club in Ellensburg, WA
Bilingual health and wellness activities are essential to empowering Latino communities. APOYO provided a free women’s fitness club in Ellensburg to encourage healthier lifestyles for Latina women.
Coached by Carmen Barajas, club members met three times a week to exercise, learn about health and wellness, and socialize with local community members and trainers. Members enjoyed walks, hikes, yoga lessons, swimming, and more. Community members learned from the nutritional presentations by our Health and Wellness student interns. They also volunteered in vaccine clinics in partnership with health organizations.
We are proud to facilitate accessible health initiatives and activities for families in Kittitas County with support from the Kittitas County Public Health Department, the City of Ellensburg, and the Yakima Valley Community Foundation, sponsors, and donors.
