YogaSix South Hills Joins the Fight Against Alzheimer's on International Yoga Day

PITTSBURGH - EntSun -- YogaSix South Hills, located in the Galleria of Mt. Lebanon, is partnering with the Alzheimer's Association of Greater Pennsylvania as part of The Longest Day initiative on International Yoga Day, June 21, 2023. Each year on the summer solstice, this year-round initiative culminates with people around the world coming together to fight the darkness of Alzheimer's disease through fundraising. Many studies show that practicing yoga may help improve quality of life and cognitive abilities in individuals with Alzheimer's disease.

"This is a perfect moment of several different movements coming together. International Yoga Day, The Longest Day, as well as Alzheimer's and Brain Awareness Month," Jarrid Danburg, Owner of YogaSix South Hills, said. "Research suggests that, through yoga, your brain develops new connections that improve cognitive skills such as learning and memory. These new connections can play a key role in improving quality of life and alleviating symptoms of individuals with Alzheimer's disease."
