Star of the Month
Maria Lucas
Maria Lucas Rodriguez was born in Ayutla,
Jalisco on June 11, 1937. Maria recalls that
as a child she enjoyed sharing her love of
nature with her father. One day he took her
to a raven’s nest to experience one of
nature’s marvelous birth miracles and was
delighted when she saw their white feathers
appeared. Maria lives a pleasant life with
her son Pedro and his wife Julieta Efigenio.
Julieta brought Maria to the Community
Center 19 years ago where she started
volunteering in the garden. Every day we see
Maria sitting by “La Tiendita” knitting or
embroidering while attending to the Gift
Shop. Thank you Maria, for the help that
you lend to our community.
Maria Lucas Rodriguez nacio en Ayutla,
Jalisco el 11 de Junio de 1937. Maria
recuerda que cuando era nina le
maravillava compartir con su padre el
milagro de la naturaleza; un dia el la llevo
al nido de un cuervo para que viera el color
blanco de sus plumas al nacer. Maria vive
una vida placentera con su hijo Pedro y
Julieta Efigenio su nuera, quien la trajo
hace 19 anos al Centro de la Comunidad
adonde empezo como voluntaria en el
jardin. Todos los dias vemos a Maria
sentada afuera de “La Tiendita” tejiendo o
cosiendo y siempre atendiendo en la
tiendita. Gracias Maria por la ayuda que
prestas a nuestra comunidad.

EXERCISE CLASS DESCRIPTIONS
Stress Management Yoga - Design for the disabled student to recognize stress symptoms and
become aware of signals which cause triggers in stress. Learn stress management skills from
passive to active take-charge role.
Yoga - A slow-paced, very beginner yoga class for those with more seasoned bodies and those new
to yoga. The class will use chairs and other props to ensure that the benefits of yoga are accessible
to folks of varying degrees of strength and flexibility.
Sit & be Fit -Is an exercise program for older adults and individuals with limited physical motion.
This class promotes functional fitness, healing, and independence.
Soul Line Dancing – Is a low impact aerobic exercise. The music selection includes the following:
R&B, Blues, Jazz, Hip-Hop, Country, and Latin.
Tai-Chi – This format is often described as “meditation in motion,” but it might as well be called
“medication in motion.” There is growing evidence that this mind-body practice, which originated
in China as a martial art, has value in treating or preventing many health problems. And you can
get started even if you aren’t in top shape or the best of health.
Samba – It’s time to move to the rhythm of Latin Music! This is a free style dance format where
you dance along as you wish. Directed by one of our volunteers that loves to dance!
DESCRIPCION DE CLASSES DE EJERCIOS
Estrés Yoga Gestión - Diseño para el estudiante con discapacidad a reconocer los síntomas de
estrés y tomar conciencia de las señales que causan los factores desencadenantes de estrés.
Habilidades de manejo del estrés.
Yoga - A, clase de yoga muy principiante de ritmo lento para aquellos con cuerpos más
experimentados y los nuevos en el yoga. La clase usará sillas y otros apoyos para garantizar que los
beneficios del yoga seran accesibles para personas con diferentes grados de fuerza y flexibilidad.
Sientate & Se Fit - Es un programa de ejercicios para los adultos mayores y las personas con el
movimiento físico limitado. Esta clase promueve la aptitud funcional, la curación, y la
independencia.
Soul Line Dancing - Es un ejercicio aeróbico de bajo impacto. La selección musical incluye los
siguientes congéneres: R & B, Blues, Jazz, Hip-Hop, el país, y América.
Tai-Chi - Es a menudo descrito como "meditación en movimiento", pero bien podría ser llamado
“medicamentos en movimiento”. Hay más pruebas de que esta práctica mente-cuerpo, que se
originó en China como un arte marcial, tiene valor "medicamentos en movimiento." en el
tratamiento o la prevención de muchos problemas de salud. Y usted puede comenzar incluso si no
está en plena forma o el mejor de salud.
Samba – Es hora de moverse al ritmo de la música Latina! Esta es una clase parecida a Zumba
que te mantendrá en movimiento a gran música junto con un grupo de participantes bien
divertidos!
