I’m sad to share that this was my reality today. Except it didn’t feel like reality it felt like a nightmare. We are safe but not ok. Our sense of safety has been taken away today. I am heartbroken and heartened by the outpouring of love and care and concern and saddened by the reality that we are now part of an ever growing community of school shooting survivors. More love, more compassion, more talking please. Less hatred, judgement and yelling. Our kids need to know that we are taking their wellbeing seriously - we are invested in making the world a kinder place. Please hug your loved ones closer, reach out to someone you haven’t spoken to in a while, and think about how to help those around you who are struggling the most. With love and lots of gratitude ❤️

Talk about starting from scratch. No where to go but up I suppose and I guess a different kind of reset than what I was looking for. More rest, one day at a time, and a need to reconnect with my positive attitude. 🙃

Honestly no words. I did well drinking my water and taught a virtual weight class this morning then ……. 😭. Stay healthy everyone

Every little bit counts. Health isn’t just about exercise. Sometimes it’s recognizing what else you need to support you being your best self. Recovery (honestly my thighs were sore from that treadmill sprint🙃) and quiet reflection were what was needed today. Looking forward to Pilates tomorrow though.

Train balance like it’s a skill—because it is.

Agile Athlete is a performance-focused class designed to improve your balance, control, and coordination from the ground up. Led by a physical therapist, this class targets the foundations of athletic movement—core stability, single-leg strength, reactive balance, and dynamic control—so you can move stronger, recover faster, and compete smarter. Whether you're a weekend warrior or a serious athlete, this class helps you stay quick, grounded, and ready for anything.

Ask yourself:
Are you currently hiking but feel unsure on steep or rocky trails?
Do you want to prevent ankle sprains or knee injuries?
Are you working toward a ski, hiking, or running goal?
Do you want to enhance your power, agility, and reaction time?

You’ll be most successful in this class if you can:
-Stand on one foot for at least 30 seconds with eyes open-
-Rise from a chair without using your hands
-Walk a straight line heel-to-toe without losing balance
-Perform a single-leg step-down with control
-Get up and down from the floor independently (without hands?)

New and current clients are welcome to join!

Before joining our 6-week balance class series, we invite you to participate in a brief Balance Screening to ensure the class is a great fit for your needs. Led by physical therapist Nancy Gonder, the screening includes:

-A CTSIB (Clinical Test of Sensory Interaction in Balance) to assess how your body uses vision, sensation, and the inner ear to maintain balance
-A short medical history review
-A brief movement and stability assessment

This 15 minute screening helps us tailor the class to your current level and ensure a safe, supportive experience as you work to build strength, confidence, and stability.

Once you have registered for Balance Class, we will give you a call to schedule your screening!

The lovely Sutton will be performing on May 25th, 26th, 27th with Life/Art Dance Ensemble ! Click the link to buy your ticket! https://www.thepeoplesbuilding.com/dialectic?fbclid=PAZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAaddBBNpnLVcZB8XKEDkcTQ9NOBkERegE2bQOQZTdW0ezfa_-H8kIJJ4sEucvg_aem_cAuUxgLGqB4vH0UZeLBWiA #/productions-view

Meet two more dancers for Dialectic delivering a lot of heart 💖

💃 Sutton is a joyful force of nature (with a dash of anxiety, too). She’s a dance-party-ready mama who swears by dark showers, outdoor walks, and the magic of a Mary Poppins-style emergency kit packed with peanut M&Ms, cuddles, and tropical escapes.

🍫 Megan’s go-to emergency fix? Chocolate and a good night’s sleep! She’s all about embracing life’s contradictions—like feeling overwhelmed and still finding ways to live in the moment (preferably to “One Night in Bangkok”).

For Sutton, mental health is learning to ride the waves of emotion with compassion and self-awareness. For Megan, it’s about caring for the mind so we can fully show up everyday.

Mental health affects how we move, connect, and express. Through dance, these artists give space to those complex truths—one eight-count at a time.

You won’t want to miss these dancers in Dialectic: Uniting Acceptance & Change in Mental Health, May 23rd - 25th at The People's Building in Aurora
