Pink Warrior House Foundation Registered 501(C)-3 Non Profit (Charitable Organization)
The Mission of the Pink Warrior House Foundation is to provide a community which supports those battling breast cancer, and their caregiver(s), with emotional and social services to foster hope and positive outcomes.
The Pink Warrior House offers support groups, counseling, art therapy, yoga, meditation and mindfulness classes and experiences, our Beautiful Warrior makeup and skincare classes with high quality products, nutritional support, a wig exchange with a professional stylist, a monthly virtual lecture series, a “Battle Buddy” network to pair those newly diagnosed with someone who has been through a similar fight, and so much more! All services are available at no cost to anyone personally impacted by breast cancer.
In collaboration with Lovelace Embrace, PWH is thrilled to host Yoga and Guided Relaxation, every Tuesday (except July 4th this month) from 5:00-6:30pm via Zoom.
Yoga and Guided Relaxation
These free yoga classes are designed specifically for patients who have been diagnosed and treated for cancer. The focus of these classes is on stretching and strengthening with special attention to areas affected by treatment for breast cancer. It is coupled with guided relaxation. The relaxation techniques offered in this class will provide creative mind and body practices that help to reduce stress caused by the cancer journey. You may choose to participate in both sessions or one of the two.
EVERY TUESDAY:
5:00-5:45 p.m. Gentle yoga class designed to support all stages of treatment and recovery with modifications and options for all levels.
5:45-5:50 p.m. Short Intermission
5:50-6:30 p.m. Guided relaxation using Yoga Nidra techniques to develop deep rest supporting emotional and physical healing.
THIS CLASS WILL BE VIRTUAL ONLY UNTIL LATE SUMMER 2024!

Our monthly in-person Caregiver Groups are the second Monday of each month.
These monthly gatherings will be for the loved ones of all cancer thrivers as they navigate the journey of caring for and supporting someone on this difficult journey.
It will be a peer led group, co-facilitated by Chris Smith and Amy Liotta who both lovingly walked beside their spouses and other family members while they were battling cancer.
The group will be hosted at the Canteen Brewhouse, on the patio, in an area that will be reserved specifically for our group. These groups will be on the second Monday evening of every month.
The group will be from 6:00-7:00, but someone will be there as early as 5:30 to greet you. So, we encourage caregivers to come grab a drink and/or some food, and get acquainted before the group begins at 6:00pm.
Warriors, if you want to accompany your caregiver to Canteen that is wonderful, however the group portion itself will be limited to caregivers only to give them their own space in which to share and support one another.
Please spread the word, and share with the caregivers in your life. Let’s help support our caregivers the way they love and support us each and every day! 💕
For this installment on our Monthly (Virtual) Lecture Series, we welcome Denise Gonzalez from Allure Spa & Lounge.

We hope you can join us for this exciting and informative (virtual) event!

Full Moon Fire Ceremony on Sunday, July 21st at 6:30pm.
Our dear friend Kitty and her authentic Shaman father , Bob Hicks will conduct this ancient and sacred ceremony.
From Kitty: “Summer Solstice, a celebration for Joy and Happiness. This is the most powerful time of the year to manifest. A time to honor all that you love! A time to manifest your passions and embrace friendships!
The sun burns bright, and is powerful over the light. Find your strength to help you grow and evolve. Let your light SHINE BRIGHT!”
The purpose of this ritual is to allow one to release unwanted energies and attachments from the past and to make space for new, beneficial intentions.
Fire, allows for rapid transformation , turning old beliefs over to spirit and allowing you to heal deeply at the level of the soul.
This event will be held at the home of Kitty and Bob at 6604 Dodd Place NE, Albuquerque, NM 87110, beginning at 6:30pm on Sunday, July 21st.
We hope you can join us for this special event! 💕
We are so excited to again partner with Patti, and CSP Dance Studios to offer you monthly dance parties (with professional instruction) on the 4th Friday of each month.
Patti, and her incredible team at CSP Dance Studios (https://www.cspdancestudios.com) are hosting our Pink Warrior House Community for an hour of professional dance instruction, followed by free dance and socializing.
We are thrilled to be able to offer this fun and enjoyable event to our monthly calendar. We are hoping to keep growing this group so please encourage your friends and family to come along, just be sure to include them in your RSVP when you register.
As with all PWH classes, groups and workshops, this is a free event to anyone personally impacted by breast cancer, and their caregivers/loved ones.
We can’t wait to see you on July 26th for DANCING! 💕
Yin Yoga Salt Cave Yoga & Sound Bath.
The Salt Cave provides an immersive self-care and wellness experience where you can enjoy a variety of services including dry salt therapy in a large salt cave!
This is a 60-minute yoga session in the salt cave, with Allison Hendricks-Smith as instructor.
This session is limited to 13 breast cancer thrivers.
We anticipate that this class will end up on a waitlist.
If all 13 spots are taken, and you are interested in being added to the waitlist, please reach out to Allison.
We are paying for each individual slot, so that this can be a free program through PWH. So, if you commit to a space, and are unable to attend, please remove yourself from the RSVP, so that someone from the waitlist may attend accordingly.
Yin Restorative Yoga allows for the body to slow down, relax, and turn inward which helps alleviate stress and restore the body’s energy levels, while improving flexibility, boosting circulation, and reduces tension. The Salt Cave will help alleviate stress and anxiety as well. It provides a relaxing environment with a tranquil atmosphere, making it the perfect haven for mindfulness.
While “yang” yoga focuses on your muscles, yin yoga targets your deep connective tissues, like your fascia, ligaments, and joints. It’s slower and more meditative, giving you space to turn inward and tune into both your mind and the physical sensations of your body. Because you’re holding poses for a longer period of time than you would in other traditional types of yoga, yin yoga helps you stretch and lengthen those rarely used tissues while also teaching you how to breathe through discomfort and sit with your thoughts.
We hope to see you on June 17th! 💕
This is a wonderful opportunity for all of our Warriors navigating the challenges of life on the other side of active treatment. Those navigating their “new normal” as NED (no evidence of disease) have an opportunity to get together and discuss the mental and emotional challenges that come after chemo, radiation, and/or surgery.
This month we are so excited to welcome Jessika Brown, certified nutritionist and life coach to talk with our group about body image changes that come about during the journey through breast cancer and beyond. She will speak to the group from 5:30-6:15, and then our regular group will go from 6:15-7:00pm.
This group will be IN-PERSON ONLY on the last Wednesday of each month.
We hope to see you in-person on July 31st! 💕
