| Mi Corazón: Stories for Valentine's Day |
Fri Feb 13 |
SPECIAL |
Regina Ress |
In tennis, "love " is nothing, but in life, love is everything! It appears in many guises and often comes from unexpected places. Love reaches across time and space, its power undiminished. Stories about love, too, come in many forms and from many places. And like love, the stories can be a healing force for the heart and soul.
This Valentine 's eve, four fabulous storytellers, Dusty Deen, Lucinda deLorimier, Liz Mangual and Regina Ress will share tales traditional and personal, ancient and hot off the presses. We cannot guarantee that Cupid, with his flowery arrows, will show up, though his predecessor Kama might! Join us at the Travel Bug and we will take a delightful trip into the territory of love.
This program is in conjunction with the statewide organization, Storytellers of New Mexico. Visit our website at storytellersofnewmexico.org
Many thanks to The Travel Bug for hosting our offering of Love.

| Cruising Tierra del Fuego |
Sat Feb 14 |
Slide Show |
Marion DuBeau |
For our honeymoon we decided to see a part of the world we had never been to before. South America had the right combination of romance and remoteness so we chose a cruise that spans the bottom of South America from Valparaiso Chile to the Magellan Strait and ends in Buenos Aires with many stops in between. |

| Feldenkrais Method |
Fri Feb 20 |
SPECIAL |
Serina Carrasco |
Feldenkrais Method: Developing into your Fullest Potential
5:30-6:30pm
Throughout our lives, all of us have learned habits that limit us on a physical, emotional, and mental level. These habits, useful to us at one point, are now inhibiting us from developing into our fullest potential on a physical, emotional, and mental level. The Feldenkrais Method of somatic education cultivates a deep sense of self-knowing so that we can become aware of our habits and literally move towards free choice. It does this primarily on a physical level- works with the body, however the more we improve our bodies, our emotions and thoughts are soon to follow. This hour will start with a short talk and then Serina will guide everyone through a Feldenkrais Awareness Through Movement lesson in sitting.
