Movement Day 2026 (3rd Annual)

Movement Day is an annual community-driven fitness and fundraising extravaganza that takes place each year to support the Greater Hudson Promise Neighborhood. This full-day celebration brings together athletes, families, and local supporters of all ages and abilities for a day filled with movement, connection, and camaraderie.
The festivities kick off at 10 AM with a one-hour yoga session on the beach led by Lava Yoga. Participants are invited to bring their own mats if they have them, but it's not mandatory. The class is open to youth aged five and above, offering an inclusive environment for all fitness levels. Registration fees range from $20 to $30 based on a sliding scale.
At noon, the energy shifts as participants take part in two main events: a team relay race and cross-training challenge. For the relay race, teams of three must complete a one-mile loop within a maximum time limit of an hour. Each member runs the full mile before passing off to their teammate. All runners must be 18 years or older.
Simultaneously, participants can engage in the Cross-Training event where two-person teams compete through a series of challenging workouts designed for fitness enthusiasts aged 18 and up. The cross-training challenge consists of three back-to-back events over a one-hour period with short breaks between each segment. Teams will have the option to raise funds leading up to the day, though fundraising totals won't affect their performance scores.
To cap off the event's competitive spirit, there is also an exciting raffle that offers participants virtual tickets for a chance at winning various prizes. Tickets can be purchased online with options ranging from $10 for 10 entries to $50 for 75 entries. Winners will be drawn through a digital platform after 2 PM and need not be present to claim their prize.
Movement Day promises an immersive experience that combines physical activity, community engagement, and the opportunity to contribute positively towards local youth development programs in Greater Hudson Promise Neighborhood.
