Expect longer warm ups and cool downs in the summer and fall and more vigor in the winter and spring. Instructor Jamie Knox. July 4th sub Tara Eschenroeder. August 1 sub Kari Parker
The Asheville Art Museum is proud to partner with Visual AIDS for Day With(out) Art 2021 by presenting ENDURING CARE, a video program highlighting strategies of community care within the ongoing HIV epidemic. The program features newly commissioned work by Katherine Cheairs, Cristóbal Guerra, Danny Kilbride, Abdul-Aliy A. Muhammad and Uriah Bussey, Beto Pérez, Steed Taylor, and J Triangular and the Women’s Video Support Project.
From histories of harm reduction and prison activism to the long-term effects of HIV medication, ENDURING CARE centers stories of collective care, mutual aid, and solidarity while pointing to the negligence of governments and non-profits. The program’s title suggests a dual meaning, honoring the perseverance and commitment of care workers yet also addressing the potential for harm from medications and healthcare providers. ENDURING CARE disrupts the assumption that an epidemic can be solved with pharmaceuticals alone, recasting community work as a lasting form of medicine.
Visual AIDS is a New York-based non-profit that utilizes art to fight AIDS by provoking dialogue, supporting HIV+ artists, and preserving a legacy, because AIDS is not over.
Presented in conjunction with Ruminations on Memory. Generous funding for exhibition programming provided by Art Bridges.

Created and produced by Adventure Entertainment, this is Australia’s original women’s adventure film tour. This short film festival is a celebration of the inspiring women around us who are doing extraordinary things in the name of adventure.
Once again, the evening’s guest emcee is Asheville local, business owner and previous holder of the Fastest Known Time on the Appalachian Trail, Jennifer Pharr Davis. Blue Ridge Hiking Company and She Jumps will be onsite with information and volunteers to answer all of your adventure questions!
Every year, our selection of unique films are carefully chosen to show women achieving their personally adventurous goals. Being adventurous doesn’t always have to mean being the fastest, going the highest or doing the most extreme things. Adventure for most of us is just stepping outside of our comfort zones and climbing our own personal Mt Everest. The films showcase real stories about women from a variety of cultures and sports around the world. We aim for the festival to be enjoyed by women, children and men of all ages.
This year’s line-up features a diverse set of films with women of all ages including Australian Olympic champion Torah Bright, ultra trail running champion Lucy Bartholomew and many more, including women in climbing, distance swimming and mountain biking. The official WOMEN’S ADVENTURE FILM TOUR line up includes 7 short films in the 2 hour set.
All ticket buyers will have the opportunity to enter an awesome prize draw from the WOMEN’S ADVENTURE FILM TOUR official partners, including Flikr*, Cee Coach and others.
The WOMEN’S ADVENTURE FILM TOUR is exempt from classification, but the films are suitable for the entire family and would normally achieve a PG-13 rating, though, there might be some instances of “spicy” language peppered throughout.

The Super Glow Breathwork Experience: The Special Crystal Circuit, Healing Breathwork Journey
Our Signature Breathwork Journey for Vitality & Holistic Healing. We are very excited to invite you to join us in community for breathwork in front of a super powerful, high vibration crystal altar at Altar Alchemy. To breathe in front of this sacred altar is what we call “The Crystal Circuit”.
To practice with the breath is to practice connecting to the truth within. It’s to let go of all that’s ready to be released and open to that which is ready to be born. In this workshop we will be utilizing the scientifically proven, potent and effective modality of rebirthing breathwork to unveil and release stagnancy lingering in the body, mind, and spirit. By opening ourselves to the power of breath we are able to manually remove these energetic blockages, making available a clearer psyche and creative life force. This practice is transformational, insightful, a pathway for infinite possibility and heightened consciousness.
Breathwork’s natural benefits:
Rewire your emotional default settings
Stimulate your immune system
Open up to more life force energy
Clear patterns of sadness/anxiety/depression/addiction
Improve sleep
Detoxify your mind/body/spirit
Gain access to a greater sense of aliveness
Promote feelings of aliveness, peace & connection
Connect you to self-knowledge/intuition/higher wisdom
Awaken your authentic & embodied self
Discover your innate authenticity, freedom & joy
Help access your creativity & open your heart to deep gratitude & self-love
Breathwork is a safe & simple experiential process. During the breathwork session we breathe lying down for over an hour. This practice is available to everyone regardless of ability, age or experience.
We will use a connected & conscious breathing rhythm called “circular breath” to flood the body with O2. In addition, for those who desire It, you will be supported with our powerful, hands on reiki & energy work during the session. This breathwork journey will last for approximately 70 minutes and will be accompanied by a powerful musical playlist to assist the journey. There will be an opening & closing circle, before and after, to share intentions, guidance and reflections.
Come and explore the emotional, spiritual and transpersonal realms and come home to your own truth. Wear loose & comfortable clothing so that you can breathe & move without restriction. You will want to bring your own yoga mat, or anything that would help you to deepen into relaxation.
All are welcome. Join us!
“One breathing session was more powerful and beneficial to me than months of talk therapy! Brian & Annie are amazing!” -Stephanie F.
“Powerful work last night. I have not felt so safe and relaxed anytime in recent memory. The energy work that you two provided throughout the breathing process was exactly what I needed at those moments. I swear that I felt my muscles relaxing from the inside out of my chest and back. Thanks to Annie and Brian!” -Patrick C
“Thank you Annie and Brian for holding such a safe, supportive, healing space. What a powerful experience for me! I’m still feeling the effects from it.” -Julia P.
Brian & Annie have been leading workshops around the world for over fifteen years combined and are excited to share this special evening with you!

About Dede Boyd, MA, RYT 500
Dede brings a unique blend of skills, experience, and expertise to her work as a Masters-Level Counselor, holding certifications for school social work, guidance counseling, and special education. She has extensive experience in both school and outpatient settings in substance abuse and trauma.
Dede is a graduate of the 200- and 500-hour Embodyoga® teacher training with Patty Townsend at Yoga Center Amherst. Embodyoga® is an innovative and exciting approach to the practice of yoga informed by cutting-edge study in the field of body awareness. Through the process of “embodied inquiry,” [questioning, sensing, and witnessing every aspect of consciousness as it expresses through the body-mind] an intimate self-knowledge and self-transformation arises.
Dede is a Relax and Renew I® Trainer and completed her training with Judith Hanson Lasater at Kripalu. Dede teaches Restorative Yoga which offers the body a chance to rest deeply and revitalize. Restorative yoga can help if you are feeling fatigued, and/or stressed from daily activities, so you can tune into your body and find stillness. Many of the asana practices are simple and accessible for people of all ages and in all states of health, using props that are readily available—like pillows and chairs. These deeply relaxing poses help you rebalance your mind and body and create feelings of well-being and counteract the effects of chronic stress.
Dede completed her training with Lauren Walker and is a certified Energy Medicine Yoga® instructor. She is now working on her Advanced Teacher Training for EMYoga . Energy Medicine Yoga® is an integrative practice uniting ancient healing methods with modern science. Classic yoga postures are woven and paired with Energy Medicine techniques to communicate with the body in its own language and innate wisdom. By focusing on your body as a living system of energy, you are empowered to self-heal, thrive and flow in the life you are meant to live.
Dede invites students to find their own individual expression in their practice, using breath and intuition as a guide. Her classes focus on developing inner sensitivity to the body and creating harmony and balance in mind, body, and spirit. Dede brings enthusiasm and her own inner resources of love and joy to encourage students to be curious about what moves them from the inside out.

Most of what we think we know about moonshining history is wrong. That’s one of the themes of the Center for Cultural Preservation’s new documentary film on regional moonshine history, The Spirits Still Move Them. David Weintraub, award-winning director/producer of forty history films, interviewed nearly three dozen moonshiners and their families in our region to tell a story about moonshine history that’s never been relayed before. According to Weintraub, “The myth that all moonshiners are violent, lazy, drunk criminals hiding in the woods wearing long beards and longer arrest records has been recounted by the media for over 100 years. In reality, liquor production was hard, backbreaking work that only the most entrepreneurial farmers conducted which they did in order to survive difficult circumstances and put food on the table. It’s a fascinating story and far more interesting than the myths and distortions we’ve heard.”
