✨ Tonight at 6:30 PM | BAFF Rise Circle™ 💛

“It is God who arms me with strength, and makes my way perfect. He makes my feet like the feet of deer, and sets me on my high places.” — Psalm 18:32–33

This week we gather for a gentle, restorative wellness experience centered around:

✨ Alignment before effort
✨ Support before strength
✨ Rest as resilience

Together we pause, breathe deeply, reconnect the body, mind, and spirit, and continue rising through movement, reflection, restoration, and practical wellness encouragement.

✨ As the BAFF Rise Circle™ continues to grow, I’m excited to begin sharing the next phase of this wellness community rooted in alignment, support, and rest — including upcoming memberships launching this week designed to support mobility, wellness, and fitness of the mind, body, and spirit.

✨ I’m excited to begin sharing more about the growing BAFF Live wellness community in the days ahead.

Whether you come from your bed, mat, chair, or simply bring your breath, you are welcome. 💛

✨ For additional information about upcoming BAFF Live offerings and memberships, feel free to email: [email protected]

The Honorable Rev. Jesse Jackson has transitioned — and with him, a living bridge between movements, marches, pulpits, and policy.
He didn’t just say “Keep Hope Alive.”
He embodied it — in courtrooms, in jail cells, in sanctuaries, and on the streets.
For those of us who believe faith must walk, speak, and organize — he modeled that.
Hope is not soft.
Hope is structured.
Hope is disciplined.
Hope shows up even when tired.
This is not just the passing of a man.
It is the closing of a chapter in American moral courage.
May we carry forward what he carried — conviction without apology, service without spotlight, faith without fear.
Rest well, Rev. Jackson.
Your labor was not in vain.
🕊️

Greetings FB Family --Celebrating my 8th Day Woman's History Month Challenge of posting daily, within 24 hours, a dynamic, and transformational woman who has transformed the world in her own way... My next feature is the incredibly talented, indescribably elegant, Madame Judith Jamison --

After Alvin Ailey's death in 1989, Jamison became artistic director of the Ailey troupe and its school. In doing so, she became the first African American woman to direct a major modern dance company. At the age of six, Jamison began taking lessons at the Judimar School of Dance in Philadelphia. She went on to study the techniques of African American dance pioneer Katherine Dunham.n 1980, Jamison performed on Broadway in Duke Ellington’s Sophisticated Ladies with Gregory Hines. That same year, Jamison began her own work as a choreographer. She premiered her first ballet, Divining, with the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater in 1984. In 1988, Jamison founded The Jamison Project Dance Company. Source: The HistoryMakers.org

QUOTE:

Judith Jamison on taking care of your body ...."I took care of mine as best I could. When you’re older, you can keep it going with smaller movements. Just sitting here, I’m doing contractions and releases, trying to strengthen my core. You won’t be moving as robustly as you used to, but you can still do something."
