Simmons College in Boston is hosting a Day of Empowerment with author and yoga teacher Sierra Bender from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. on March 24. The program is designed for women of college age and older who wish to recognize and rejoice in their feminine power using Bender’s “4 Body Fit” approach to holistic well-being. This approach builds a foundation of stamina, strength and suppleness on the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual levels.

“I want people to release the outdated notion that success and power for a woman means walking in a man’s shoes,” says Bender. “I’m teaching women how to break through the masculine/feminine divide to redefine fitness, beauty and power.”

Bender is also a yoga therapist and creator of the Sierra Bender Empowerment Method and internationally renowned Boot Camp for Goddesses retreats. She will sign copies of her book, Goddess to the Core, at Simmons after the event.

The cost of the event is $26.50 for Simmons students, $43 for other college students and $100 for the general public. For registration information, visit bit.ly/DayOfEmpowerment.

The Day of Empowerment with Sierra Bender will be held in Simmons’ Alumnae Hall at 255 Brookline Ave., Boston.
