The purpose of this group is to offer support and encouragement to anyone that has undergone an amputation or is facing an amputation as well as their caregivers and loved ones. The meetings will provide a place to share experiences, ask and answer questions, and provide educational opportunities through community resources and experts in the field. Join this group to get connected to other individuals who know what life is like as an amputee.
First Degree Black Belt, Jason Alan Griffin (JAG) is bringing Woodstock to Centralia with a Nia class featuring artists that performed at the original Woodstock Music Festival. It’ll be a groovy throwback to 1969 with Jefferson Airplane; Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young; Melanie; Jimi Hendrix; Blood, Sweat & Tears and many others.

This is Woodstock and the theme is love and peace and celebrating the Joy of Movement – so consider wearing peace signs, tie-dye, flowing sun dresses, vests with fringe, lots of love beads and flowers in your hair.
**JAG travels with his dog, River, who sleeps in his crate during class. Please ignore him so he can stay calm.*

In this two-hour reflective journaling and movement experience, you’ll begin the process of excavating and understanding our Body’s Autobiography. Writing your Body Autobiography is a process of reflecting on your history, the messages and their meaning that has become your body’s story. The many messages and experiences we have been through have left an imprint on our relationship with our body often enhancing or disrupting our relationship with our body and ultimately affecting our sense of peace and satisfaction.
This class experience will include a movement meditation and dance with the intent of leaving you feeling satisfied, relaxed and connected to your “now body” and grateful for the privilege to co-exist with and within it.
You can expect to do some journaling, floorplay and freedance – in the energy of joy and gratitude!
