Meditation and Mindfulness with Alexa Flower
Join us for gentle mindful movement and a seated meditation to ease into the weekend. This class offers a practical, welcoming path into mindfulness. We’ll begin with a brief overview of what mindfulness is—and isn’t—then move into two simple meditation practices to help anchor attention in the present moment. There will be time at the end for reflection and questions.
This class is designed to be supportive for beginners while still offering depth for those with prior experience. Chairs and props are provided, but please feel welcome to bring a cushion, pillow or blanket to ensure you are comfortable.
About the instructor:
Alexa has been practicing meditation since 2018 and is a Mindfulness Facilitator in Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) through Brown University’s School of Professional Studies. She has attended over 10 silent meditation retreats, with a focus on insight, or Vipassana, practice.
Her approach to teaching is grounded in ongoing practice and curiosity, with an emphasis on meeting experience with a “beginner’s mind.” She aims to create a steady, down-to-earth space for all to explore mindfulness.

Adult Summer Art Camp! Make Your Own Felt Flower Bouquet with Marijke
Jealous of all of the kid’s art camps that pop up this time of year? Why are there no summer art camps for adults? We thought the same thing.
Come to this three day immersive summer art camp and leave knowing how to make your very own bouquet of felt flowers!
In this class, multiple techniques including twisting, rolling, layering, and cutting felt will be introduced to make various effects and parts of our flora!
Together we will create some of the base flowers, then everyone will be set loose to design and construct any flower that can be imagined. These can be used as decor, accessories, wonderful gifts and more!
Join us in a three day exploration of organic shapes to create whimsical felt creations. With these skills, you will be able to reimagine a flat piece of fabric and some wire into a dynamic, floral sculpture. Each participant is encouraged to bring a vessel to style your work in, but some will be available to choose from.
All of the supplies will be provided by C5 Studios. Many felt options will be available, however participants may bring any supplies they may have and want to use.

Meditation and Mindfulness with Alexa Flower
Join us for gentle mindful movement and a seated meditation to ease into the weekend. This class offers a practical, welcoming path into mindfulness. We’ll begin with a brief overview of what mindfulness is—and isn’t—then move into two simple meditation practices to help anchor attention in the present moment. There will be time at the end for reflection and questions.
This class is designed to be supportive for beginners while still offering depth for those with prior experience. Chairs and props are provided, but please feel welcome to bring a cushion, pillow or blanket to ensure you are comfortable.
About the instructor:
Alexa has been practicing meditation since 2018 and is a Mindfulness Facilitator in Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) through Brown University’s School of Professional Studies. She has attended over 10 silent meditation retreats, with a focus on insight, or Vipassana, practice.
Her approach to teaching is grounded in ongoing practice and curiosity, with an emphasis on meeting experience with a “beginner’s mind.” She aims to create a steady, down-to-earth space for all to explore mindfulness.

Salsa Dancing with Hallie
Welcome to Salsa in the Eastern Sierra! We will be offering Salsa classes that are open to all skill levels- beginners embraced, drop-ins are welcome. Bring a partner or come solo and we’ll partner-up! We will start with very basic movements which will be refined and polished with styling cues as we advance. Each class will have a review of prior skills and a portion of the class will be dedicated to progression and combinations as folks become more comfortable with the movement.
Salsa dancing is FUN, anyone can do it with the right tricks and tools. Your teacher is there to guide you into a hip-swiveling, smile-bringing… expression of mind, body and soul.
About your instructor:
Hallie Vickers moved to Bishop 25 years ago with a love for rock climbing and the mountains. Several years later she moved to Santa Barbara to pursue a nursing degree… it was in Santa Barbara that she immersed herself in Salsa dancing, ultimately dancing and performing with a local Latin dance company, Salsa Barbara. Upon returning to Bishop to settle down, she brought that love of Salsa home with her, teaching Salsa classes and fusion dance classes for many years prior to diving into family life and embracing a career as a RN Care Coordinator. She shares her journey with her handsome hubby, Simon and two fabulous boys, Shiloh and Lee. She’d love to hear from you if you have any questions 760-920-2063.

Painting with Texture - Acrylic Paint Lab with Marijke
Forget everything you know about painting with acrylics and explore the textures waiting to be discovered! Using everyday items from around your house, everyone has the power to transform acrylic paint into a brand new material.
Join this class for an evening of experimentation and discovery with a focus on layered, abstract designs. As a group, we will explore texture in acrylic paint from emphasizing our brushstrokes, to painting with textured materials, to adding an assortment of mix-ins to our paint. After everyone gets to experiment with the diverse materials and techniques, each participant will receive a canvas to explore.
This workshop is great for people who want to broaden their horizons and let go of the box typically drawn around painting. Everyone is welcome whether you are new to a paint brush or a seasoned painter!
Ages 9+
