SUMMARY:Exhibition: Beyond Prayer — Paintings by Yuko Kasahara
DESCRIPTION:[et_pb_section bb_built=”1″ admin_label=”section”][et_pb_row admin_label=”row”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″][et_pb_text admin_label=”Text”] \nCRS announces Beyond Prayer\, an exhibition of abstract paintings by Yuko Kasahara of Japan. These paintings are like a record of Yuko’s prayers for the recovery of her mind following the shock of her parents’ separate deaths by suicide. Mainly using transparent watercolors and oil pastels\, she attempts to express and dialog with her feelings of loss and separation\, to move past them to reach something timeless and always shining in herself. The exhibition will be on view from April 6 – 25\, 2017. \nMessage from Yuko Kasahara About This Exhibition \nI think I always keep praying while I’m painting. Praying is to be honest\, to affirm the expression that came from within myself\, to change without fear\, and to confirm what is important to me. This is an exhibition of work that I made while interacting with my heart in that way. These works may be like personal journals. But I feel like when I dive deeply and deeply into my heart\, I can be reaching something like a sea of universality beyond individuals. I want to go there\, I want to meet you there. While making works\, I am praying like that. \nArtist Statement \nFor me\, painting is the same as living\, praying\, and forgiving. \nMy parents’ respective suicides were very shocking events for me. Because of that\, I lost my physical and mental condition. At that time\, I could only express desperate feelings in a self-destructive way. After a long period of time when I could not cry because too painful\, I could finally cry a little. I think that the next day I was able to make a drawing — one that could not be described as a proper picture — on a notebook with a ballpoint pen. \nFrom that day\, I drew\, drew and continued drawing. \nThis process naturally came to represent abstractly the feelings coming out from inside of me that I could not express through language. I use fine drawing a lot. During those times I draw every single stroke with prayer. \nAt first\, my purpose of painting was to just breathe through my emotions. But\, I discovered the power to organize and change my thoughts through painting. When I start painting\, I dare not plan what kind of work to make. As led by colors and shapes\, I draw allowing my hand to be guided moment by moment. To not plan is\, for me\, to keep my mind open to the possibilities. I listen carefully\, honestly\, keep opening my mind. Finished works always take me to a place that I had not thought of before. I feel that I have been living in that way. \nArtist Bio \n2016  Solo show (Kyoto\, Japan) \n2015  Group show (Kyoto\, Japan) \n2013  Start abstract painting with the current style \n2002  Graduated from Osaka University of Arts \n1977  Born in Osaka\, Japan \nI lost my father when I was 17 years old. I lost my mother when I was 35 years old. They both committed suicide. \nI myself have a developmental disorder (ADHD). \nI had a difficult time since childhood because of my family environment and because of my own character. Through studying A Course In Miracles painting\, and with the support of the people around me\, I deepened my connection to “Life\,” “Universality” and “Real thing” that cannot be lost\, and I regained the power to live. \nMy motto is “Various things happen in life\, but all is OK.” \n[/et_pb_text][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][/et_pb_section]

SUMMARY:The Genius of Flexibility: Level I Resistance Flexibility™ Affiliate Certification Training
DESCRIPTION:Principles of RF\, Beginner Self & Assisted RF\nThis event is open to all ages\, abilities\, and levels of experience. \nThe only prerequisite is an interest! \nThis is a great way to be introduced to Resistance Flexibility for personal or professional gain. \nTuition: $750\nSign up by April 2nd: $500\nIncludes six months of free access to The Genius of Flexibility’s Training Archive ($114 value)\nLearn more about The Genius of Flexibility’s Affiliate Certification Training \n\n\n\nAbout Resistance Flexibility\nThe Genius of Flexibility introduces the Resistance Flexibility™ (RF) training of Bob Cooley. Resistance Flexibility advances and unites physical therapy\, yoga\, personal training\, psychology\, traditional Chinese medicine\, and Genetic Personality Type theory. \nResistance Flexibility is a unique\, hands-on modality used to develop athletes and performers\, rehabilitate the severely and ordinarily injured\, and help people of all walks of life achieve their goals. Based on an original biomechanical and energetic analysis of the body and personality\, RF achieves unprecedented results. \nCourse Objective\nThis intensive is designed to introduce participants to the concepts\, principles\, and practice of RF. This includes basic self stretches\, basic assisted stretches\, mashing\, and an introduction to the physiological\, psychological\, emotional\, and spiritual upgrades that RF can facilitate. \nThis course includes lots of physical activity\, but you work at your own pace. Variations are taught for every exercise allowing people of all ages and abilities to fully participate. \nOne of the primary goals of this training is for each participant to leave knowing at least one self stretch and one assisted stretch that they are comfortable performing for each of the body’s 16 major muscle groups. \nAnother primary goal is to introduce participants to our growing community of health enthusiasts that are continually developing each other’s health through assisted stretching and the sharing of perspective. \nCourse Audience\nThe Affiliate Certification Training is designed for two categories of people: \n\nIndividuals who are interested in practicing Resistance Flexibility to accelerate their personal development\nIndividuals who are interested in becoming a certified trainer\n\nThose interested in training others professionally should know that the distinguishing feature of The Genius of Flexibility’s training programs when compared to other modalities is our priority on improving the health of the trainer before the health of the client. The true measure of success for our trainers is not what they can provide for the client\, but instead how developed they are themselves – physically\, psychologically\, emotionally\, and spiritually. We believe the trainer must first embody the changes possible through RF before they will ever be able to provide an optimal RF experience for others. This is not a program to train normal fitness professionals. \nThose interested in personal development will be provided with a powerful tool to improve all aspects of their flexibility along with community support from others who regularly practice self and assisted stretching. \nPreview of Concepts Covered\nThis course will teach you new concepts about flexibility such as… \n\nInflexibility is not caused solely by tense muscles\, but by the dense fascia and/or scar tissue that has accumulated in and around the muscles.\nYou must continuously resist and contract a muscle while lengthening it in order to exceed the tensile strength of the accumulated dense fascia which results in immediate increases in flexibility and strength.\nMost of the increases in flexibility occur when the muscle starts in a position where it is as short as possible and then lengthened\, not at the end point of the stretch where the muscle is already fully elongated.\nThe flexibility of a muscle is not just limited by its own health and ability\, but by the shortening capacity of its balancing muscle group.\nIt is commonly thought that simply weight training a muscle increases its ability to shorten\, however\, the ability of a muscle to shorten is dependent on its resistance flexibility.\nRange of motion does not equate to flexibility. True flexibility includes the health of the tissue and the muscle’s ability to continuously and fully contract concentrically\, eccentrically\, and isometrically throughout that range. Extreme range of motion is often an indicator of hyper mobility potentially leading to instability and damage of the joint structures.\nStretching is not just a physical activity\, but has direct and predictable associations with the physiological\, psychological\, emotional\, and spiritual parts of a person.\nStretching is not just a solo activity. Maximal results require the participation of others through assisted stretching.\n…and so much more!

SUMMARY:Exhibition: Beyond Prayer — Paintings by Yuko Kasahara
DESCRIPTION:[et_pb_section bb_built=”1″ admin_label=”section”][et_pb_row admin_label=”row”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″][et_pb_text admin_label=”Text”] \nCRS announces Beyond Prayer\, an exhibition of abstract paintings by Yuko Kasahara of Japan. These paintings are like a record of Yuko’s prayers for the recovery of her mind following the shock of her parents’ separate deaths by suicide. Mainly using transparent watercolors and oil pastels\, she attempts to express and dialog with her feelings of loss and separation\, to move past them to reach something timeless and always shining in herself. The exhibition will be on view from April 6 – 25\, 2017. \nMessage from Yuko Kasahara About This Exhibition \nI think I always keep praying while I’m painting. Praying is to be honest\, to affirm the expression that came from within myself\, to change without fear\, and to confirm what is important to me. This is an exhibition of work that I made while interacting with my heart in that way. These works may be like personal journals. But I feel like when I dive deeply and deeply into my heart\, I can be reaching something like a sea of universality beyond individuals. I want to go there\, I want to meet you there. While making works\, I am praying like that. \nArtist Statement \nFor me\, painting is the same as living\, praying\, and forgiving. \nMy parents’ respective suicides were very shocking events for me. Because of that\, I lost my physical and mental condition. At that time\, I could only express desperate feelings in a self-destructive way. After a long period of time when I could not cry because too painful\, I could finally cry a little. I think that the next day I was able to make a drawing — one that could not be described as a proper picture — on a notebook with a ballpoint pen. \nFrom that day\, I drew\, drew and continued drawing. \nThis process naturally came to represent abstractly the feelings coming out from inside of me that I could not express through language. I use fine drawing a lot. During those times I draw every single stroke with prayer. \nAt first\, my purpose of painting was to just breathe through my emotions. But\, I discovered the power to organize and change my thoughts through painting. When I start painting\, I dare not plan what kind of work to make. As led by colors and shapes\, I draw allowing my hand to be guided moment by moment. To not plan is\, for me\, to keep my mind open to the possibilities. I listen carefully\, honestly\, keep opening my mind. Finished works always take me to a place that I had not thought of before. I feel that I have been living in that way. \nArtist Bio \n2016  Solo show (Kyoto\, Japan) \n2015  Group show (Kyoto\, Japan) \n2013  Start abstract painting with the current style \n2002  Graduated from Osaka University of Arts \n1977  Born in Osaka\, Japan \nI lost my father when I was 17 years old. I lost my mother when I was 35 years old. They both committed suicide. \nI myself have a developmental disorder (ADHD). \nI had a difficult time since childhood because of my family environment and because of my own character. Through studying A Course In Miracles painting\, and with the support of the people around me\, I deepened my connection to “Life\,” “Universality” and “Real thing” that cannot be lost\, and I regained the power to live. \nMy motto is “Various things happen in life\, but all is OK.” \n[/et_pb_text][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][/et_pb_section]
