Upward Inertia is excited to announce the inaugural Thrive: Community Wellness Festival, a vibrant celebration of health, wellness, and community connection, taking place on September 28, 2024, at JUMP (Jack's Urban Meeting Place) in downtown Boise. This dynamic event will feature over 25 classes, local vendors, family-friendly games and crafts (and the JUMP slides), and delicious food trucks - making it a perfect outing for all ages!

Thrive aims to foster a sense of community while raising vital funds for Upward Inertia's transformative Yoga Therapy programming. This event is free to the public, with donations highly encouraged. All donations will directly contribute to initiatives that bring mind-body based education and healing to individuals in the prison system and those managing addiction and mental illness in the community.

The festival will showcase an array of engaging activities, including:

• Wellness Classes: There are an abundance of classes, ranging from yoga, mindfulness, and breath work, to circus, singing, poetry, functional medicine, massage, and financial literacy. No matter who you are, there is something on the schedule for you.

• Local Vendors: Explore booths featuring health and wellness focused products and services from local artisans, healers, and businesses.

• Family-Friendly Activities: Enjoy games and projects designed for children and families, ensuring fun for everyone. The JUMP slides will be open until noon and the jungle gym will be open throughout.

• Food Trucks: Savor a diverse selection of delicious food and coffee options from local food trucks!
