What they do

Go to free sober activities led by volunteers, such as weekly chair yoga, weekly community yoga, fitness sessions, art, or social meetups. Most listings have a reserve button to hold a spot. To volunteer, the site describes a short process that starts with its NewForm app and includes attending two events first. The group plans a sober community center in North Philadelphia, which the site said would open in spring 2026; the pages checked do not confirm that it has opened.

Your first visit

Feeling unsure the first time is normal. Most groups are glad when someone new walks in.

First step: Reserve a spot on the Friday chair yoga listing (Fox Chase Library, 10:30 am), or send a question through the Contact Us page on thephoenix.org..

You need to sign up first.

What to expect

The Friday chair yoga is 60 minutes, listed for all levels, with 15 spots per listing. The Saturday community yoga is a 60 minute gentle, slow flow class, and mats are provided. The activities are led by volunteers.

Tips for your first visit

  • Reserve your spot on the listing first, since each class lists a limited number of places.
  • Check the listing before the Saturday class, since it is held weather permitting.
  • You do not need to bring a mat to the Saturday class, because the listing says mats are provided.

Newcomer welcome

Welcoming to newcomers (4 out of 5). Why we say this: The site says people seeking connection are welcome whether or not they are in recovery, and the Friday chair yoga is listed for all levels with a reserve button..
