12 pm: Mindful Movement to Manage Stress
This yoga class co-ordinates small, gentle movements with the breath to promote a sense of well-being. The movements are selected to benefit guide dog handlers and white cane users, so we focus a lot on hips, back, shoulders, arms, and hands and other areas where we build up tension.
You will be encouraged to move within your current range of motion and energy level. The whole practice can be done while sitting in a chair. We will finish with a guided awareness relaxation. Everything will be described clearly, and you can ask questions. What you'll need for this class: a firm chair that won't slide around as you move; a folded blanket or a couple of folded bath towels, and a bed pillow or throe pillow. This class is taught by yoga teacher Robin Mandell.
2 pm: Community Couch
It’s time once again for another Community Member spot light. We will chat with and get to know three community members. There will be time for you to ask questions as well.

9 pm: It's Play Time
Meka and Cindy welcome you to join in for another fun Friday night filled with games and laughter.
As an avid movie watcher, the discussions you have with your friends about the movies you've seen on the big screen or at home are so interesting to me. The diverse avenues you as an audience member glean from the variety of genres can generate interesting points of view. Now, keeping this in mind, I'd love for you to come join me with a tub of popcorn or your favorite snack and let's talk film.
