Klyde Warren Park

Cigna, the health service company, is now the official sponsor of fitness programs at Klyde Warren Park, in downtown Dallas, that will help people stay active outdoors. An outdoor stage will be used for activities like yoga, t’ai chi and Zumba. Other activities on the park’s east lawn include badminton, ping pong and foosball. Cigna will also have a series of health coaches speak at the park throughout the year.

The Cigna deal is a two-year commitment funded by the Cigna Foundation. Cigna CEO David Cordani says, “The object is to have fun while staying active.” Klyde Warren Park is privately operated and managed by the nonprofit Woodall Rodgers Park Foundation.
