Programs

YWCA Carlisle and Cumberland County’s programs offer a wide range of activities focusing on wellness and community.

Many of our programs focus on women and girls, but we support all members of the community in need, regardless of gender or gender identity. Many of our programs are for all ages and all genders.

Second Season caters to the needs of seniors. They meet monthly to discuss a variety of topics.

Some Topics Include:

Qi-Gong is open to everyone and meets weekly on Thursdays

Qi Gong is an ancient Chinese practice combining slow, gentle movements, deep breathing, and meditation to cultivate and balance the body’s vital life energy, or “qi,” for health, spirituality, and martial arts. It involves coordinated postures, breathwork, and focused intention, promoting harmony between mind, body, and spirit, with roots in traditional Chinese medicine. Qi Gong is for all ages and genders.
