JCC Unveils New Yoga Studio Sunday

The Jewish Community Center's new TEVA yoga studio will bring together pilates, yoga and wellness spa amenities.

The Jewish Community Center will open a new, full-service yoga studio Sunday in its location at 6255 N. Santa Monica Blvd. in Whitefish Bay.

Mark Shapiro, the JCC's Executive Director, said the new TEVA yoga studio is an opportunity for the organization to expand its service to members, strengthen its impact in the wellness community, and introduce the JCC to a new audience of guests.

“It is the ideal to build a new program that equally serves our mission, strategy for growth, and the needs of our community," Shapiro stated in a news release.  "I’m very proud that this JCC team has accomplished that ideal.”
