Rainbow Sound Therapy and I are very excited to host our Quarter 4 Pet Loss Support Group at The Sensory Club on October 27th at 5:00pm. October 27th is the first day of Día de Muertos, which honors pets that have passed away.

We will also create our own ofrenda. This event is pay what you can.

Join Bonnie Houpt, MT- BC and Kathleen Martins, M.S., AYT for a one-hour Zoom workshop on using yoga and music together.

The workshop is $30, which includes access to a link of a recording of the event whether you attend live or not that will be available for 90 days.

Participants will leave with 3 tips for the grant writing process as well as 3 activities that use music and yoga and were successful with adults with IDD.

The workshop will be in a presentation format along with interactive activities but feel free to use the Zoom chat during the event to expand on the ideas and ask questions. There will be time for questions at the end. During the event, you can have your camera on or leave it off and just listen- whatever works best for you!
