Wellness Program

OLLI 's Wellness Program offers 60-minute sessions for members to continue practicing what they have learned in Wellness courses at OLLI or elsewhere. Members are expected to have some experience with yoga prior to participating in the Wellness Program.

Wellness Program sessions are taught by experts. They are not study groups. Four six-week sessions are offered each year, meeting during the same periods as our Study Group sessions.

Summer Wellness Program registration is open.

Those who have a 2025-26 Annual Membership will see a "Register" button by each Wellness Program section when logged into their OLLI account on or after the registration opening date and time. Click that "Register" button to register for a wellness program session.

If you are an annual member in 2024-25 but have not yet renewed, you will still see a "Register" button up until July 1, 2025. However, if you are not yet a member yet for 2025-26, you will need to purchase a membership before attending summer wellness programs.

These courses will be taught by experts and are limited in size.
