FITNESS AND RELAXATION THE WATCHWORDS
FOR A DAY OF YOGA AND SOUND HEALING
ON SEPTEMBER 25

Take some time out for some fitness and relaxation for Yoga and Sound Healing on The Ave, on Saturday, September 25, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., in the southwest mini-park, Landis Avenue and the Boulevard, in Vineland. The rain date for this event will be the following day at the same time.

Organized by Main Street Vineland, it is an opportunity for you to connect with yourself and your fellow community members by practicing the beautiful art of yoga while absorbing colorful, harmonic waves of sound.

Ahmad Graves-El (a.k.a. “The Lung”) will be joined by three other yoga instructors—Kim Corda, Kristy Lively, and Dana Pellegrino—and two sound providers—Sitarbob and Maegan Athena Quinones—for this event.

All classes will be 50 minutes and anyone can choose to participate in one, two, three, or all of the classes. Participants are to bring mats, blankets, blocks, water, and positive vibes.

“This is the kind of event that fits perfectly into what we want to achieve in holding “micro-events”—smaller, specialized events—on The Ave, making more use of our beautiful mini-parks, and providing opportunities for people to use The Ave to keep fit and for healthy living,” said Main Street Vineland Executive Director Russell Swanson.

This will also be a great opportunity to utilize our new downtown walking trails while on The Ave, according to Main Street Vineland Associate Director Robert Scarpa.

“While you are on The Ave, take advantage of our newly-dedicated walking trails and make a day of it downtown. Walk, get some lunch, do some shopping, and enjoy!”

Schedule of Classes:

10 to 10:50 a.m.—Kim Corda will teach yoga “utilizing accessible, practical approaches that empower people to overcome obstacles and find a sense of integration and peace.”

11 to 11:50 a.m.—Ahmad Graves-El (a.k.a. “The Lung) will guide you to “reconnect to your True Self through breathing exercises, asana, and more.”

12 to 12:50 p.m.—Kristy Lively will show you, through Vinyasa Yoga, “how to feel comfortable in your own skin, one breath at a time.”

1 to 1:50 p.m.—Dana Pellegrino will use yoga meditation “to provide a safe and welcoming place for students, honoring the spiritual roots of yoga while focusing on healing and deep introspection through those spiritual modalities.”

Sound Providers:

Sitarbob is an electric sitarist who believes “that you can infuse soundwaves with good intentions.”

Maegan Athena Quinones, sonic energy alchemist/card reader, is a “Spirit led healer, using what I have learned and certain tools through this life to help uplift and spread healing.”
