Review for Team Survivor California, Santa Monica, CA, USA
Team Survivor California provides women with fun fitness opportunities in a warm, safe environment. Women living with any kind of cancer come together to walk, run, hike, participate in a yoga class, swim, cycle, train for a triathlon, and more. The feeling of strength and support at the end of a class is second to none.
More Feedback
What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...
watching a woman come into a class exhausted and sure she couldn't do anything only to see her leave an hour later relaxed, glowing, and vowing to return the following week...and then come back again!
The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were...
outstanding! When I think of a "regular" yoga class I picture nice hardwood floors, peaceful music, & lovely lighting. The instructors often have class in a basement or conference room, but the feeling in the room is the same as in a yoga studio.
Ways to make it better...
there were more classes in a wider variety of locations.
In my opinion, the biggest challenges facing this organization are...
geography and lack of funding. No one wants to drive 2 hours to a weekly aerobics class, so geography is challenging. With more support, additional classes could be opened thereby alleviating the geography issue.
