SUMMARY:Moving Meditaiton
DESCRIPTION:THIS SESSION HAS BEEN CANCELLED. PLEASE JOIN US FOR THE NEXT ONES IN FEBRUARY\, MARCH & APRIL!\nTake time to reconnect with your inner wisdom. In this 90-minute moving meditation workshop\, we’ll explore the healing power of writing\, movement\, art\, and connection. \nYou’ll move through a gentle\, yet powerful journey. First\, we’ll begin with reflective journaling. Then\, we’ll shift into 5Rhythms-inspired dance. After that\, you’ll engage in intuitive art-making. Finally\, we’ll come together in heartfelt conversation. \nEach part supports you in slowing down and turning inward. Whether you’re feeling disconnected\, creatively stuck\, or simply need a pause\, this space is here for you. One breath. One expression. One step at a time. \nNo experience is needed – just your body\, your breath\, and a willingness to explore. \nThis is a space for authenticity and curiosity. It’s a place where real connection happens\, your voice is heard\, and your truth is welcome. Give yourself the gift of coming home to yourself- sign up for moving meditation today. \nAbout Your Guide: Julie Greenberg\nJulie Greenberg is the founder of Creative Awakening and a passionate guide who uses embodiment\, Human Design\, and self-expression to help others reconnect with who they are and what matters most. With a background in movement\, mindfulness\, intuitive tools\, and energy work\, she creates soulful\, playful spaces grounded in real-life transformation \n.

SUMMARY:SALSArobics
DESCRIPTION:Get Ready to Move with SALSArobics!\nJoin Esther Gutierrez Sloan every Friday for a dynamic workout that blends fun\, rhythm\, and full-body movement. This class isn’t just about exercise – it’s about joy\, discovery\, and the thrill of dance! \nThroughout the session\, participants choose their intensity level – low\, moderate\, or high – while moving to irresistible Latin\, Caribbean\, Spanish\, and African beats. Options for both low-impact and high-impact movements allow everyone to customize their experience. \nEach class delivers an energizing workout that averages 4\,000 to 4\,200 steps\, with varying degrees of intensity. Esther integrates the Total Body Training (TBT) Systems Methodology to support proper posture and promote muscle conditioning. She also incorporates Peripheral Heart Action (PHA) Training\, offering an optional challenge that builds aerobic strength based on individual pace and rhythm. \nTo build coordination and balance\, the class includes inline motion drills. Participants move across the room using steps that change direction – laterally\, diagonally\, forward\, and backward—adding functional movement to the workout. \nThe session concludes with Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF) stretching to enhance flexibility and recovery. \nColombian-born Esther Gutierrez Sloan created SALSArobics in 1989 to fuse authentic Latin rhythms with aerobic exercise. She has performed on national and local television in Illinois\, California\, Florida\, and New York. In addition to leading classes\, she has presented SALSArobics at fitness conventions\, schools\, health clubs\, ethnic festivals\, and international events. \nIn recognition of her groundbreaking work\, Esther was inducted into the National Fitness Hall of Fame in 2010.
