Yoga and Mindfulness session

April 7, 2022 (12:00 pm - 1:00 pm)

Location: Acadia Athletics Complex - Fitness Dance Studio


Sexual Assault Awareness Month 2022 begins with a restorative Yoga and Mindfulness session at noon on April 7 with Sarah Pittoello from the Counselling Centre. This session will be held at the Fitness Dance Studio at the Acadia Athletics Complex. If you don’t know your way to the Fitness Dance Studio, you can just ask for directions at the Athletics Centre front desk and they’ll be happy to guide you.

Students, staff, and faculty are welcome. Please bring your own yoga mat.


This event is part of Sexual Assault Awareness Month (SAAM). SAAM is an opportunity to recognize and educate ourselves and others about the prevalence of sexualized violence and work together to create safer spaces across our campus and communities. We all play an important role in building a culture of consent and equity at Acadia.

This year, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion Officer Polly Leonard has teamed up with Allison Smith (Acadia’s Sexualized Violence Response and Education Coordinator), and Deans Laura Robinson, Suzie Currie, and Heather Saunders to plan some fun, informative, and engaging events. Everyone is welcome to attend, and we encourage you to share this information widely and bring your colleagues and friends!
