On Friday, May 21st, Wellness4Every1® will be hosting a virtual #StrengthInOurSchools class with Julia Winske to raise money for arts and wellness programming in Chicago Public Schools. This strength workout fundraising class will be from 12:00-12:50pm CT. The suggested donation is $30.00, but we encourage everyone to join regardless of your contribution. Donations can be made on Venmo: Wellness4Every1 or through our GoFundMe: The Art of Wellness.
This class will be hosted by Versus, and will be a full-body workout that will increase power while promoting efficient movement patterns. Participants will gain strength while focusing on push movement. You can expect controlled fast and slow movements, such as push-ups. The class will also be available to watch on-demand for 24 hours after being taught live.
Julia is a certified ACE group fitness instructor. After learning she wasn’t able to play college softball, Julia started leading fitness classes at her college rec center. She lead her first charity workout called “Active 4 Autism” in 2015 and continues to merge her passion with fitness and helping others.
Wellness4Every1® was founded in 2016 in response to the many Chicago Public Schools that had lost their funding for arts and wellness programs. Through community partnerships and fundraising efforts, the organization helps bring these vital opportunities back to Chicago students. Wellness4Every1® has provided programming to 90 schools, reaching over 10,000 students.
