SUMMARY:Family Practice Class: Opening the Heart through the Buddha's Teachings
DESCRIPTION:Led by Eve Decker\, Keisha Turner\, Vickie Chang\, Julie Goshe and Michele Ku\nFor Children Ages 0-13 and Family / Caregivers \nWe invite you to come and be a part of the diverse family sangha at EBMC.

It is a wonderful opportunity to have family time without digital distractions and to learn mindful practices for the whole family. Parents/caregivers and children meet together and sometimes separately during the class. Families with children under the age of 5 meet in a mindful playgroup. We are committed to creating a diverse family sangha\, all families are welcomed. No prior experience is necessary. \nPlease note\, each family only needs one registration. Thank You! \n \nCost: There is no registration fee for attending this event\, nor most EBMC events.

SUMMARY:Beyond the Binary: Mindfulness of Gender
DESCRIPTION:with Bri Barnett\, Louije Kim\, JD Doyle and René Rivera\nOpen to All *and* we extend a special invitation to those who identity as non-binary\, gender nonconforming and their allies. \n  \nGender identities and presentations profoundly impact all areas of our lives providing us both joy and difficulties.  How do we create communities that are open to all genders and learn how to navigate the complexities of gender? During this day of practice we will investigate how cultural\, historical\, and familial conditioning around gender impact us as individuals and as communities. Through meditations and interactive activities\, we will explore gender\, in order  to nurture a world that is founded in inclusivity and freedom for all. \nSpace is limited and registration is requested.  \n \nCost: There is no registration fee for attending this event\, nor most EBMC events. However\, EBMC is not independently funded. The Center and the teachers will be sustained only by your voluntary donations (the practice of generous giving\, or “dana”).

SUMMARY:Kapwa Flow for Alphabet Sangha (Movement Class)
DESCRIPTION:Led by Jessy Zapanta \nKapwa means “togetherness” in Tagalog. Kapwa Flow invites you to embody what collective liberation might feel like\, healing through self-care and energetic connection. Jessy will begin circle with a check in to support access needs and individual requests\, followed by a grounding opening meditation. You will then be guided through a customized flow of trauma-releasing movements\, self-focused bodywork\, and stationary practices based on your personal capacity. Since class is dependent on the combined needs of participants\, no two sessions are the same. All movements can be done sitting\, lying down\, or standing up. Tuesday practice centers queer and trans experiences\, all bodies and minds. Mindful allies are welcome. \nDrop In Format. No Registration Required. Please Dress Comfortably.

SUMMARY:Kapwa Flow for Alphabet Sangha (Movement Class)
DESCRIPTION:Led by Jessy Zapanta \nKapwa means “togetherness” in Tagalog. Kapwa Flow invites you to embody what collective liberation might feel like\, healing through self-care and energetic connection. Jessy will begin circle with a check in to support access needs and individual requests\, followed by a grounding opening meditation. You will then be guided through a customized flow of trauma-releasing movements\, self-focused bodywork\, and stationary practices based on your personal capacity. Since class is dependent on the combined needs of participants\, no two sessions are the same. All movements can be done sitting\, lying down\, or standing up. Tuesday practice centers queer and trans experiences\, all bodies and minds. Mindful allies are welcome. \nDrop In Format. No Registration Required. Please Dress Comfortably.

SUMMARY:Tai Chi Chih – Joy through Movement
DESCRIPTION:Join us for Alphabet Dharma in Motion \nTai Chi Chih – Joy through Movement \nwith Jenn Biehn\, EBMC Tai Chi Chih teacher      \nDrop In Format\, No Pre-Registration Required.  \nA form of qigong\, Tai Chi Chih is a moving meditation consisting of 20 easy-to-learn\, access-centered movements.  Tai Chi circulates\, balances\, and gathers the chi or energy of the body bringing stillness and calm to the heart mind.   Practiced with softness and continuity\, these flowing movements can release tension\, negativity and stress leading to a sense of wholeness.  Qigong stretches will be practiced at the beginning of each class to prepare for this moving meditation. \nA Buddha Dharma Sangha practitioner and Tai Chi Chih teacher for the past 30 years\, Jenn Biehn loves including embodied awareness and healing movement as part of sangha building.  She has taught and practiced Tai Chi Chih (TCC) – Joy through Movement at City College of SF and to those healing from trauma in several community-based organizations.  An EBMC volunteer for the past 10 years\, Jenn is a member of Alphabet Sangha\, Midday Sangha Coordinating Committee and Restorative Practices for Dharma Practitioners.
