Move for Marty! (Donation-Based Event to Benefit Wilmot Cancer Institute)

Please join us for a very special donation-based yoga event, in memory of Marty Lembo.

Marty’s wife, Cyndi Lembo, is part of the Yoga 170 community and in her own words…

”Marty Lembo was diagnosed with colon cancer in March 2016. His oncologist at Wilmot, Dr Richard Dunne, does extensive research on the effects of exercise on cancer patients. Dr Dunne encouraged Marty at every appointment to exercise even when he was feeling at his worst. It truly made a difference in his mental and physical well-being. It was during this time that I found my yoga community at Charisma in Fairport. When Charisma closed, I was fortunate to continue my journey with wonderful instructors and friends at Yoga 170. This class will benefit Wilmot Cancer Center and the outstanding medical teams who work tirelessly to find a cure. Due to the generosity of Yoga 170, all donations will go directly to Wilmot.”

This is a donation-based class and welcoming to all! After yoga, please feel free to stay for refreshments and to mingle. Hope to see you there!
