They’re falling behind academically\, struggling with loneliness and isolation\, and facing rising rates of substance abuse and suicide. \nGone Guys\, a 45-minute documentary\, draws on the influential work of Richard V. Reeves’ Of Boys and Men\, illuminating these challenges through powerful data and compelling personal stories. Many have experienced these issues first-hand\, but it can be difficult to talk about them. It’s not an either-or choice: caring more about boys and men does not mean caring less about women and girls. \nSet in rural Vermont\, the film brings national data to life with engaging animation accompanying lived experience featuring young men\, educators\, mentors\, and trailblazing programs that are working to re-engage boys and young men in their communities and reshape their futures.

Return to Center is an invitation to slow down\, reconnect with yourself\, and remember the wisdom that already lives within you.\nInspired by therapeutic yoga and somatic movement\, this class is designed for anyone seeking greater balance\, resilience\, and ease—no prior experience is necessary. Through mindful movement\, breath\, and guided awareness\, you’ll build strength\, stability\, and confidence while learning to listen more deeply to your body’s signals.\nRather than striving to do the “perfect” pose\, you’ll be encouraged to explore what feels supportive and sustainable for you. Each practice offers choices and adaptations\, empowering you to trust yourself and discover the path that best meets your needs in the present moment.\nOver the course of the season\, you’ll cultivate:\nA deeper sense of self-trust and inner resilience.\nGreater balance\, strength\, and embodied confidence.\nPractical tools to regulate stress and reconnect with yourself.\nIncreased awareness of your body’s wisdom and your own inner guidance.\nA renewed sense of possibility\, agency\, and clarity as you move through life’s challenges.\nThis is more than a yoga class: it’s a space to explore what becomes possible when you reconnect with your center and recognize that you are the leader and guide of your own life.\nCome as you are. Leave feeling more grounded\, capable\, and connected to the person you are becoming.
