Fitness at BCAK
Exercise, Yoga and Qi Gong are held in BCAK’s multi-purpose room at 110-650 Dalton Ave.
Morning exercise classes are open to breast cancer survivors with a current paid up BCAK membership, evening classes are open to all members. To become a member please, visit our Membership Page.
Participation is for survivors first. Not only are classes for fitness but also a support group for those affected by breast cancer. Registration for classes is required as we have limited space and, only those registered will be notified of any last minute cancellations due to weather or illness.
If you are interested in joining the class, we kindly ask that you first contact our office so that we can put you in touch with our Fitness Coordinator, Cristina Puga. Certain class schedules may be changed and some classes are discontinued for the summer months.

Swimming is a wonderful and beneficial exercise for breast cancer survivors and we meet every Thursday afternoon from 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m.
At the moment we are only allowed 10 in the pool maximum.
