Personalized	Our recommendations take into account your age, goals, fitness level and cancer-related needs.
Expert	We provide exercise professionals who are certified by the American College of Sports Medicine and experienced in working with cancer patients.
One-on-One	We work closely with you to assess your needs, answer your questions, and teach you exercise techniques.
Convenient	Our exercise programs can be done at home, at a community fitness center, by yourself, or with others.

It is an event filled with activity, food, music, and great resources for cancer survivors and their caregivers! Proceeds from the Warrior Walk benefit Judy's Fund: Hope for Cancer Survivors.
