On July 23rd, Families And Children Together (FACT) welcomed families into the bright, modern space of the Gloria Coles Flint Public Library for an evening that was a little quieter, a little slower, and deeply meaningful.
Our Calm and Connected Yoga event offered a peaceful pause in the middle of a busy summer. Led by Felicia Campbell, families were guided through gentle yoga movements and simple breathing techniques to calm the body and center the mind. Children and caregivers moved side-by-side, laughing through balancing poses, stretching out tight muscles, and learning ways to carry calm into their daily routines.
The experience was soothing, but also powerful. In a world that often asks families to stay in constant motion, this evening was an invitation to slow down—and to do it together.
After the session, participants gathered for a light and healthy dinner, sharing conversation and laughter around the table. The warm energy in the room made it clear: this was more than a yoga class, it was a moment of connection.
We’re so thankful to Felicia for her calming presence, and to our friends at Great Start for helping create such a welcoming space. At FACT, we know that wellness comes in many forms. On this night, it looked like deep breaths, shared mats, and community around the dinner table.
