Here’s what’s happening in Mountain Home for the next week. See you next week!

National Train A Teacher Day
5:30 a.m. — 2:30 p.m.
Our sincere thoughts and prayers go out to all who were affected by the senseless shootings at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas. This tragic shooting serves as a reminder of the ubiquitous nature of gun violence in the United States and the constant search for ways to stop it. In the past, American schools have responded to high profile mass shootings with a variety of measures to help keep students safe. None of these policies have served as a panacea. We do not as yet have enough information to know if any measures would have prevented the tragedy in Uvalde. As our Nation debates school safety and gun control measures in the coming weeks, we at Ozark Dynamics want to offer a free day of training to the educators in our area to help them keep our children safe.
On June 18th, in support of National Train A Teacher Day, we are offering a free seminar to our local school staff. The mission of National Train A Teacher Day is to protect kids. Educating and empowering teachers, staff, and administrators will help all of us realize that mission and as an added bonus create informed advocates that can influence legislators and school boards in changing policies and laws. The protection of our children is NOT a gun debate. Educational opportunities offered on NTATD include awareness, medical, unarmed, and deterrence training as well as defensive firearms training.
Take a look here at our upcoming seminar in support of National Train A Teacher Day:

Therapeutic Chair Yoga
10:00 a.m.
Therapeutic chair yoga is a gentle stretching exercise for anyone, especially those with chronic back pain, arthritis, fibromyalgia or other pain and movement issues. Poses are learned either sitting in a chair or standing holding on to a chair.
Exercise can improve your ability to complete normal activities of daily living, lower the risk of anxiety or depression, and improve your quality of life.
Yoga is a free class and open to all men and women. The class meets in the Peitz Cancer Support House Activity Room. As with starting any new exercise program, please consult your physician before beginning.
Cardio Kickboxing & Strength Training
6:00 a.m. – 6:30 a.m.

Women who don’t exercise can lose anywhere from 3 to 8% of their muscle mass each decade due to inactivity. Studies show that strength training can promote bone development, reduce lower back pain, and reverse several skeletal muscle aging factors.
Kickboxing has become a popular sport because it provides a fantastic workout and challenges many of our senses and capacities.
If you want to feel better about your body, both in how it looks and performs, these sessions are for you!
Due to COVID-19 restrictions, class capacity is limited to 15. Masks are required, social distancing is strictly observed, and registration is required. Call (870) 508-2345 today!

American Sign Language Class
6:30 p.m.
Have you been wanting to learn sign language? This nine-week course is an introduction to American Sign Language, the language used by deaf people in the U.S. and most of Canada. Students will develop practical skills and knowledge needed for successful interactions with deaf people.
Students will learn beginning ASL vocabulary and grammar (including the use of space, non-manual signals, and classifiers). Topics include: fingerspelling, introducing yourself, asking questions, feelings, family members, colors, foods, clothing, animals, and a variety of survival phrases for basic conversation.
Since a language cannot be separated from its culture, students will also learn some information on deaf culture, including attention-getting strategies, politically correct terminology, and behavioral norms/values.
The class will be taught by Aaron and Patty Bristol. They were both trained in ASL in San Diego and worked as sign language interpreters and educational aids for deaf students for many years. Patty is hearing impaired and her husband, Aaron, has been her interpreter for their entire 30+ years of marriage. They have taught many classes over the years from very young children to the elderly. This class is taught in a style that is intended to be fun and at times even humorous in order to build memorable connections between signs and their meanings. It is strongly encouraged that you take the class along with a friend or family member so that you can practice with them throughout the week.
