CorePower Yoga is Coming to Chapel Hill


“Our preview period is a great time for interested students to try our classes for free and experience the variety of workouts we offer. Everyone comes to yoga for different reasons and we have something for everybody.”

CorePower Yoga, America’s leading yoga studio, is expanding its presence in the Triangle later this winter with a new studio opening in Chapel Hill’s Eastgate Shopping Center. This will be the fourth location in the region, making it even more convenient for students to experience the community, consistency in practice, and the variety of classes offered at CorePower Yoga’s fitness studios.

The Chapel Hill location will be open seven days a week with classes offered throughout the day, beginning at 6 a.m. and ending at 8 p.m. The new studio is approximately 3,437 square feet and will be equipped with two large studios and men’s and women’s spa-inspired changing rooms, showers, vanity areas and lockers.

Four class formats will be offered including CorePower Yoga 1, CorePower Yoga 2, Hot Power Fusion and Yoga Sculpt. Formats range in style, difficulty and flow to fit every experience level. All classes are designed to fire up strength, ignite intention and build the core.

“We are thrilled for the opportunity to bring CorePower Yoga to Chapel Hill and we look forward to becoming an engaged and active part of the community,” said Kathleen Schauer, Area Manager for CorePower Yoga. “Since we opened our first studio in the Triangle in 2015, we’ve always known Chapel Hill would be a great fit for us. We can’t wait to open our doors and welcome yogis looking for a place to experience the magic of yoga through a powerful, purposeful and fun workout.”

CorePower Yoga Chapel Hill is located at 1800 E. Franklin Street, near Trader Joe’s. The studio will offer free classes during a ten-day preview period prior to its grand opening in January. Beyond the preview period, new students always receive their first week of classes for free, allowing them to sample the different formats offered.

“Our preview period is a great time for interested students to try our classes for free and experience the variety of workouts we offer. Everyone comes to yoga for different reasons and we have something for everybody,” said Schauer. “In addition, they get to observe the community they will become a part of, and experience how our instructors provide consistency and accountability in their practice.”

Other CorePower Yoga studios are located in Raleigh at Cameron Village and Cary at Waverly Place. A third location will open in November at Stonehenge Market in North Raleigh. The North Raleigh location is offering a special Founding Membership Deal that can be purchased in studio or via phone at 919-341-7222. CorePower Yoga Black Tag Members are able to practice at any of the studios in North Carolina, as well as the 200 plus CorePower Yoga studios around the country.

Texas Woman’s University Partners with Keypath Education to Deliver Two Online Family Nurse Practitioner Programs


https://www.prweb.com/

Texas Woman’s University

“Students will gain a multifaceted perspective focused on the wellness of patients, their families, and their communities, including those in rural areas. We look forward to providing this transformative learning experience to a greater number of students who will serve as primary care providers.”

Texas Woman’s University (TWU), one of the nation’s leading providers of high-quality nurses, will partner with Keypath Education, a leading online program management provider, to offer two online programs specifically focused on Family Nurse Practitioners (FNP). The online Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP) Master of Science and the post-master’s FNP Certificate will expand TWU’s respected, successful and popular on-campus nursing program offerings.

Applications are being accepted now for these programs, with the first cohort term starting January 13, 2020. TWU’s curriculum emphasizes patient well-being, skillful management of acute and chronic illness through clinical mastery, and collegial prowess.

“The innovative online learning environment will help students develop advanced clinical skills, health care knowledge, the ability to translate evidence to practice, and clinical procedures to become holistic primary care providers,” said Rosalie Mainous, PhD, APRN, FAANP, FAAN, Dean and Professor. “Students will gain a multifaceted perspective focused on the wellness of patients, their families, and their communities, including those in rural areas. We look forward to providing this transformative learning experience to a greater number of students who will serve as primary care providers.”

According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, the demand for nurse practitioners is projected to increase by 36% through 2026, substantially higher than the 7% growth average anticipated across all occupations during the same timeframe.

“We are excited to partner with Texas Woman’s University on these online nursing offerings,” Keypath CEO Steve Fireng said. “Along with our clinical placement network, our combined goal is to make quality education more accessible to students from all over the United States. A specialized nursing degree from Texas Woman’s will empower students to create a lasting impact on health care.”

Conscious Discipline and Reflection Sciences Partner to Assess and Improve Executive Function in Children


News Image

“We noticed a strong alignment between Conscious Discipline and our focus on reflection in the context of supportive relationships to develop strong executive function skills,” said Dr. Carlson, Co-founder and Chief Science Officer at Reflection Sciences.

Conscious Discipline, a leader in social-emotional learning and classroom management best practices, has partnered with Reflection Sciences in an effort to better measure and improve executive function in children. Reflection Sciences was founded by Phil Zelazo, Ph.D., and Stephanie Carlson, Ph.D., researchers at the University of Minnesota and creators of the Minnesota Executive Function Scale (MEFS). The MEFS App™ is a direct digital tablet assessment and the most accurate measurement of executive function available today.

Beginning in mid-2019, Conscious Discipline will be selling access to the MEFS App™ and training materials through its website. After purchasing the app and integrating it into instruction, users will receive specific Conscious Discipline intervention activities tied to each child’s executive function development, their age, and their performance on the game-like assessment.

Student data gathered through the MEFS App™ can be used to monitor progress, track the development of executive function and evaluate the effects of interventions and curricula. The assessment is brief, reliable, and valid and can be administered starting at age two and extending through adulthood. Children may be assessed multiple times throughout the year with the purchase of the MEFS training and one license per student.

Executive function is a set of skills that are essential, not just for school achievement, but for life happiness and success. Executive function helps people pay attention, plan, organize, make decisions, stick to their goals, control emotions and impulsivity, learn from past mistakes, and take other people’s perspectives. These neuro-cognitive skills include working memory, inhibitory control and cognitive flexibility. Executive function is often a better predictor of academic and life success than traditional IQ tests, and it helps protect children from adversity-related risks.

“Conscious Discipline improves executive function in children. Through our partnership with Reflection Sciences, educators and schools can not only measure this improvement, but also implement interventions and track measurable goals,” said Dr. Becky Bailey, founder of Conscious Discipline. “This partnership gives teachers, schools and parents a more tangible way to track progress and clearly see the growth achieved with Conscious Discipline.”

“We noticed a strong alignment between Conscious Discipline and our focus on reflection in the context of supportive relationships to develop strong executive function skills,” said Dr. Carlson, Co-founder and Chief Science Officer at Reflection Sciences. “We are now excited to go to market together with Conscious Discipline so more young children globally can benefit from both of our services.”

Child Trends conducted an evaluation with 700 young children in the state of Ohio in conjunction with the University of Dayton and Preschool Promise and concluded that Conscious Discipline’s SEL curriculum led to growth in executive function performance as measured by the MEFS App™.

About Conscious Discipline

Conscious Discipline provides a comprehensive, trauma-informed social-emotional program that is based on current brain research, child development information and developmentally appropriate practices. All aspects of Conscious Discipline focus on creating a safe, connected environment for children to learn and practice the skills needed for healthy social, emotional and academic development. Conscious Discipline methodology is recognized by SAMHSA’s National Registry of Evidence-based Programs and Practices (NREPP), and it was named as a national model for character education by the Florida State Legislature. Research shows that Conscious Discipline decreases aggression, impulsivity and hyperactivity while creating a positive environment in the school or home. In schools, Conscious Discipline has been shown to decrease discipline referrals while increasing teaching time and academic achievement. Learn more at http://www.consciousdiscipline.com.

About Reflection Sciences

Reflection Sciences, Inc. (http://www.reflectionsciences.com) provides professional development, training, intervention curricula, and tools for assessing and improving executive function skills. The Minnesota Executive Function Scale (the MEFS AppTM) is the first objective, scientifically based, and normed direct assessment that validly and reliably measures EF skills in children from two years of age and up. The MEFS App™ is a quick (5 minute), fun game for students, but it provides vital data for educators and parents on a student’s executive function skills.

Monmouth Mobile Home Park Hits a Hole in One for the American Cancer Society


News Image

Arthur was passionate about helping others and this cause is something he cared deeply about, so I think putting on this tournament in his honor is a fitting tribute.

The event takes place on Thursday, October 17, at the Forsgate Country Club, 375 Forsgate Drive, Monroe Township, NJ 08831. Registration and breakfast starts at 8 a.m., with a 9:30 a.m. Shotgun Start (scramble format).

“Arthur was passionate about helping others and this cause is something he cared deeply about, so I think putting on this tournament in his honor is a fitting tribute,” said Daniel Mandell, manager of Monmouth Mobile Home Park, whose father-in-law was Arthur A. Roedel, former owner of Monmouth Mobile Home Park, whom the tournament is named after.

The tournament takes place on what would have been Arthur Roedel Jr.’s 76th birthday. Arthur died on July 3, 2017, from Multiple Myeloma. He dedicated his life to helping others through his volunteerism and fundraising. In honor of Arthur, the tournament to benefit the American Cancer Society (ACS) is a fun day of golf to raise money to support cancer treatment and patient programs. It will be hosted by Keri Mandell, who has partnered with ACS to raise money and awareness for the cause through her participation in the World Marathon Challenge — 7 marathons, 7 consecutive days on 7 continents.

In addition to breakfast and golf, the Arthur A. Roedel Jr. Golf Classic includes prizes, a refreshment cart, lunch, locker room access and a driving range. The cost per foursome is $1,300 (cost per golfer, $325). For more information and to register online, please visit https://www.crowdrise.com/o/en/campaign/arthur-a-roedel-jr-golf-classic.

AIM Solder will highlight its REL electronic solders and its new RX18 and CX18 cored solder wire.

REL22™ is an award-winning, high reliability alloy developed to address reliability and production quality issues common to similar multi-element alloys.

REL61 provides significant advantages over other no-low silver alloys by offering better flow characteristics at lower temperatures, thus reducing PCB damage and assembly costs.

AIM will also feature its new cored wire solders, RX18 and CX18. The award-winning RX18 is engineered for automated soldering and promotes thermal transfer, fast wetting and reduces voids/skips. With an operator friendly, low odor/smoke formula, CX18 extends the solder tip life and leaves clear, minimal residues.

AIM Solder has operated a full-line manufacturing facility in south China for over sixteen years. While continuously expanding to better address the needs of this valuable market, AIM has opened a new facility in Changxing, Huzhou, in the Zhejiang province of China, expanding its R&D, production capabilities and customer support.
