Participants must be 12 to 18 years old. Class size is limited.

John Maxwell stated “A leader is one who knows the way, goes the way, and shows the way.” Aspiring leaders can learn the principal of leadership by developing the confidence to show “others the way” through dance. In the same token, a good follow expresses the ability to be a great team member, thus swing dancing is an excellent tool to teach youth the life skills of leading self, communicating with others, and learning the balance of power and influence. In fact, life is not about getting to a certain place on the floor, it’s enjoying the steps and interactions of others along the way!

“Teaching Leadership Through Swing Dance” is a workshop conducted in partnership with South Florida Lindy Collective and The University of Florida/IFAS Miami-Dade 4-H Youth Development Program.

Annual Dr. Nelson L. Adams Walk A Mile With A Child Set for Saturday, April 16, 2016

The James Wilson Bridges Medical Society Inspires Kids And Looks To Raise Awareness About Health Disparities Impacting The South Florida Minority Community

In honor of National Minority Health Month, the National Medical Association (NMA), James Wilson Bridges, M.D. Medical Society (JWBMS), along with their title sponsor, Sunshine Health will host the annual Dr. Nelson L. Adams Walk a Mile With A Child on Saturday, April 16, 2016 from 8:30 a.m.-noon. This is the 9th annual year that the event is taking place.

Overweight and obesity rates tend to be higher among African American children compared with White children, with obesity rates increasing faster at earlier ages and with higher rates of severe obesity. Approximately 60 percent of Florida’s overweight children have at least one risk factor for cardiovascular disease such as high blood pressure or high cholesterol.

The walk will be followed by a pop-up health and wellness fair that will be held at Gibson Park (401 NW 12th St, Miami, FL 33136). Attendees will have an opportunity to participate in the fit clinic, face painting, games, family Zumba class, as well as learn ways to improve the health and well-being for the whole family.

NMA is a 121-year-old not-for-profit organization that represents the interests of over 40,000 African American physicians and the patients they serve. The JWBMS is the local arm of the NMA dedicated to fulfilling their mission to promote optimal health for communities of color.

“The health and wellness of Florida’s children should be our primary focus. There are many chronic conditions associated with obesity that are easily preventable with a healthy lifestyle,” said Dr. Nelson L. Adams, Chairman of the Board of Directors for Sunshine Health. “I am committed to raising awareness about this growing epidemic, and I look forward to working with our partner organizations to provide health education and resources to the community.”

The Walk A Mile through Historic Overtown hopes to encourage organizations and adults to serve as community mentors by walking with the children and inspiring them to keep their minds and bodies active.

“Community service drives our company’s culture,” said Chris Paterson, CEO of Sunshine Health. “We believe it is important to positively impact the lives of our members in the communities where they live. This important initiative was introduced to us by our Board Chairman, Dr. Adams, and Sunshine Health is proud to be a sponsor each year.”

“We would like to commend Dr. Nelson L. Adams and Walk a Mile with a Child for bringing attention to the health and wellness needs of African American children residing in Historic Overtown. “ Chairman Keon Hardemon, District 5, City of Miami.

“The primary focus of the 100 Black Men of South Florida is the intellectual and physical health and welfare of our children, says Stephen Johnson, President of 100 Black Men of South Florida. “It is therefore important to us, as men in the community, to walk with Dr. Adams and our children to promote healthy living through historic Overtown. We are proud to support this event”
Sponsors and community partners include: Sunshine Health, Wellmax Max Medical Center, 100 Black Men of South Florida, Sigma Alpha chapter of Omega Psi Phi fraternity.

YogArt, a DARLEE production, has experienced a year of unprecedented growth in 2015. Miami’s world-renowned Art Basel weekend will mark the fifth anniversary of Cavicchioli 1928 presents YogArt sponsored by jugofresh & The Sacred Space Miami December 4 – 6 at Wynwood Walls. Additionally, YogArt presented by Chȃteau D’Esclans & The Sacred Space Miami will host the second installation of its new 10-month expanded series in the Miami Design District’s Palm Court plaza on November 25.

“YogArt’s unique mix of rejuvenating yoga sessions, live music and healthy food and drink has proven to be a winning formula for South Florida and those traveling to Miami for Art Basel,” noted YogArt co-founder and avid philanthropist Arlene Chaplin. “The lively backdrops provided by Goldman Properties’ Wynwood Walls and the Design District’s Palm Court plaza are perfect settings for inspired cultural and community events like YogArt.”

Each class lasts approximately one hour, and will be led by South Florida certified Jivamukti teacher and licensed movement therapist Dawn B. Feinberg. Live music for the weekend’s sessions will feature DJ Drez, The Mayapuris and Marti Nikko. Widely recognized artist, philanthropist and entrepreneur Peter Tunney will design a special yoga mat to be auctioned off during Friday’s session to benefit Miami’s Design Architecture Senior High (DASH).

Curated by Goldman Properties’ CEO Jessica Goldman Srebnick since 2012, this year’s Wynwood Walls program, Walls of Change, will include 14 new large scale murals and installations by globally acclaimed street artists, as well as a program of events within the art park that will be free and open to the public. Goldman Properties will also debut The Wynwood Walls Garden, a new art space adjacent to the Wynwood Doors, which the company recently purchased to augment its artistic imprint in the neighborhood.

Sessions for YogArt during Art Basel weekend are made possible by valued sponsors 3six5Sport, Buddha Pants, Cavicchioli 1928, evian® natural spring water, ginnybakes, Goldman Properties, jugofresh, MIAMI magazine, Miami New Times, Ocean Drive, The Sacred Space Miami, TY KU Sake, Wynwood Walls, and ZICO Premium Coconut Water.

The Miami Design District’s chic Palm Court plaza will host its second installation of YogArt on Wednesday, November 25, also led by Dawn B. The first session drew a sold-out crowd in October and featured flowing rosé compliments of Whispering Angel, live music from an 11-piece Brass Fellows Ensemble from New World Symphony and a healthy bite compliments of ella, a pop up café by Chef Michael Schwartz. Future musical acts include Miami’s own Afrobeta, the Magic City Hippies and DJ Immortal with accompanying musicians.

Palm Court, the neighborhood’s pedestrian plaza, is home to the Buckminster Fuller Fly’s Eye Dome, Xavier Veilhan’s Le Corbusier sculpture and Sou Fujimoto’s waterfall inspired façade that evokes Miami’s tempestuous rainsqualls. Asanas aside, Palm Court is the ideal point of departure for yogis to explore the Design District’s upscale fashion and design offerings.

This 3.1 mile timed race is walker-friendly and will take place around the entire zoo. The ZooKidsDash presented by Kidz Medical Services is a race for kids ages 2 – 9. This race will include a range of distances from 100 to 525 meters and opportunities to interact with Gigi, Kaz and Pio – the popular Zoo Squad mascots. Participants are also being asked to dress or accessorize like their favorite animal to win prizes at the costume contest.

Dates for Wound Care Certification Program Announced 8/26/15

Dr-Anvar-HeadshotDates for Wound Care Certification Program Announced
Miami,
Miami, Florida 33114
Website
Cost: Individual- $1499 ~ Group- $1499

Each day, 164 people lose their lives – many unnecessarily – due to improper care of pressure wounds also known as bedsores, a little-known area of medicine that is growing at an alarming rate with the rapid aging of our society.
Registered and licensed vocational nurses and those in related fields may earn continuing education credit and certification in the area of wound care by enrolling in weekend courses sponsored by the College of Long Term Care:

• August 26-28, 2015 – Miami, FL (Includes Skills Lab)
• September 9-11, 2015 – Los Angeles, CA (Includes Skills Lab)
• September 23-25, 2015 – Oakland, CA (Includes Skills Lab)
• October 28-30, 2015 – Dallas, TX (Includes Skills Lab)

“The growing problem of pressure wounds is especially challenging for nursing homes that have had to send their residents to specialty clinics and hospitals for treatment,” said Anvar, who also founded the College of Long Term Care. “This is especially costly when you factor in ambulance transportation, lifting and moving patients in delicate health, admittance to the hospital and surgical care. Also, the simple act of transporting patients can lead to the onset of additional pressure wounds. By teaching staff how to prevent such wounds and identify them at the earliest stages, we can reverse these troubling statistics.”
Weekend courses sponsored by the College of Long Term Care will reveal these basic facts about caring for wounds:

• Avoid excess baths (should only bathe for 3-5 minutes 2-3 times per week)
• Keep water temperature lukewarm – not hot
• Add bath oil
• Do not use most soap products as they contain detergent (Dove is the exception)
• Do not use washcloths
• Pat dry
• Apply moisturizer immediately after bathing and reapply 4 times each day
• Stay well hydrated
• Avoid caffeine, spices and alcohol

Attending community members will be able to enjoy the following free services: Boot camp @ 10am, blood pressure screenings, BMI and glucose readings, as well as free access to government mental health agencies and private practices of different specialties. Food trucks and refreshments will also be present for locals to enjoy.

Mental Health Awareness Facts:
• 9% of the population have been diagnosed with a serious mental illness³

A New Standard For Urgent Healthcare Centers In South Florida 4/7/15

After years of medical practice, Dr. Hossein Joukar envisioned a change in the way the local community receives healthcare. Tired of the clouded, inefficient and frankly, unfair experiences of those seeking medical attention, he set out to build a clinic with the patient in mind. In 2005 the first RiteCare facility was inaugurated and Dr. Joukar made sure that his establishment embodied the ideals that have governed his own medical career.
Starting an urgent/walk-in care facility seemed the most logical fit. Urgent cares are convenient alternatives to traditional healthcare facilities. As opposed to traditional primary providers, appointments are not necessary to receive attention, and they are available 7 days a week, with longer operating hours. Before urgent care, the only other option for families experiencing minor conditions such as cold and flu, sprains, minor burns and infections, was to rush over to a crowded hospital emergency room. These visits not only lasted long and uncomfortable wait times, sometimes up to 8 hours, but also cost a substantial amount of money, no matter the insurance provider. Urgent care centers like RiteCare have facilitated the treatment of non-life threatening conditions by seeing patients quickly and efficiently.
“It was important to provide a space for patients to feel confident in the care they are receiving, as well as the price they are paying,” said Dr. Joukar. “We are advocates for fair costs and transparency when it comes to billing. Our patients, insured or not, know exactly what will be charged before any procedure is performed.”
From the moment a patient arrives at any of the four RiteCare facilities, they can expect the utmost level of service performed by any of the board-certified physicians currently on call. In addition to urgent care medical services, RiteCare also provides a variety of services including primary care, physical therapy, school or sports related physical examinations, travel and seasonal vaccinations and immigration physicals. Employers can also count on RiteCare to provide drug testing, occupational medicine/therapy and work-related physical examinations.

A presentation at the Church of Perpetual Life in Hollywood, Florida will discuss breakthroughs in organ transplantation medicine.

Experts in the field believe that replacement of failed cells, tissues, or organs could cause over 30% of all deaths in the United States to be substantially postponed—increasing the chance of living to age 90 by more than 10 times.

Unfortunately, the supply of transplantable organs is much less than the demand. There are long waiting lists of potential organ transplant recipients, most of whom die before an organ becomes available. In the United States, it estimated that only about 2% of the potentially needed organ transplants are carried-out. Even when organs are transplanted, they may be poorly matched to the recipient, requiring immune suppression measures that decrease the quality and quantity of life of the recipient.

Come to the meeting to learn about breakthroughs in transplantation of heart, kidney, liver, lung, and other organs that could save many lives of people who die prematurely because of organ disease or failure.

Thursday, February 26, 2015 at 7:15 pm (doors open at 6 pm)

The service will be held at the Church of Perpetual Life

Dentistry from Our Hearts: Spreading Free Smiles Throughout South Florida

February 4, 2015

AVENTURA, FL — The Dental Care Group and Dental Care Group Kids are bringing free smiles back to the community! On Sunday, February 8, 2015, they’ll host the 4th annual Dentistry from Our Hearts. Their dental teams will be donating their time to provide free services including exams, cleanings, fillings, bondings, extractions, x-rays and emergency care at both their Aventura and Pembroke Pines offices during this year’s event.

With the help of their fellow dentists, hygienists, clinical and administrative teams, volunteers and sponsors, Dr. Rick Mars, Dr. Joel Glicksman and Dr. Josh Coussa have treated over 1000 patients and donated nearly half a million dollars in dental care through the Dentistry from Our Hearts program since 2012.

Tooth decay, which is almost entirely preventable, is the most common chronic illness among school-age children. Left untreated, it can result in infection, unbearable pain, loss of teeth and acute systemic infection. Yet nearly one in four American children have untreated tooth decay. For low-income children, the rate doubles.

“For many, a visit to the dentist is unaffordable and inaccessible. More than 85 million Americans have no form of dental insurance. We are looking to address this concern and give back to the members of our community who need it the most,” said Dr. Rick Mars.

The event will take place from 9 am to 4 pm on February 8th. Patients will be seen on a first come first served basis. If you would like more information on this event, or to schedule an interview with Dr. Rick Mars, please contact Leslie de Lepine at (305)935-2797 ext. 249 or via email at Leslie@dentalcaregroup.net.

The story of a South Beach legend

Walk to the Fifth Street lifeguard stand on South Beach at 5:15 pm any day. You will see a bearded, long-haired shirtless man wearing black shorts, one black glove, and a headband that’s black, too. People call him the “Raven,” and he’s been standing in front of that lifeguard stand at that time for the last forty years, getting ready for his eight-mile jog up and down the beach. That’s right—Raven has run eight miles on the sands of South Beach every day since 1975, through concussions, hurricanes, food poisoning, animal attacks, hail and high water. And he’s still going.

This event will feature:

A reading of poetry written by the Raven himself
Screening of the feature documentary
Invitation to join the Raven on his famous 8 mile run on the beach following the film at 4:15 PM

Join Meryl Comer, a New York Times best-selling author, as she discusses her new book, Slow Dancing with a Stranger. She’ll share her unvarnished account of her physician husband’s early onset battle with Alzheimer’s disease, one of today’s most pressing and least-understood health epidemics. Comer takes on the medical community’s inclination to not diagnose the disease because they can’t treat it, inpatient management nightmares, and the despair of families left to manage bizarre behaviors at home and alone. She paints an intimate and moving portrait of Alzheimer’s and, in the process, Comer reveals the truth about the disease and everyone it affects.

This event is open to the public.

Meryl Comer is president and CEO of Geoffrey Beene Foundation Alzheimer’s Initiative. An Emmy-award winning reporter, veteran TV producer and business talk show host, she is winner of the 2005 Shriver Profiles in Dignity Award and the 2007 Proxmire Award.

During your FREE drop-in consultation, find out more about Scalp Micro-Pigmentation and see if it’s right for you!

Come in to speak with a practitioner about the treatment, get price quotes and set a treatment plan.

About Scalp Micro-Pigmentation (SMP):
SMP was developed as both a cosmetic procedure for men suffering with all types of hair loss, and as a medical procedure to help conceal scars, burns and birthmarks, as well as the full spectrum of alopecia strains. During a SMP procedure, a blend of specialist pigments is deposited into the dermal layer of the skin on the scalp. Using a highly sophisticated combination of angles, penetration depths, deposit sizes and pigment shades, these deposits create an extremely realistic illusion of real shaven hair on the scalp.

About HIS Hair:
HIS Hair Clinic is an internationally recognized, specialist hair loss treatment clinic, with prominent locations in major urban centers around the world. Each clinic complies with (and exceeds) all core professional standards of effective treatments, cleanliness and health and safety. They are always opening new clinics further afield, to enable even greater access to our unique SMP treatment for hair loss.

Jonerik Murphy — the founder of JEMKIDS — talked about the event saying, “Being a physically fit child isn’t about being a great athlete, it is about being a healthy person. If a child has poor posture, it will affect everything from self esteem to performance in school to long term health issues.  Therefore, children should be physically active early on to create strong, healthy bodies.” Jonerik has been certified by the International Youth Conditioning Association (IYCA) as a Youth Fitness Specialist (Level 2).

studio also supports clients’ inner and outer well-being with more traditional approaches, including Zumba, and Latin Ballroom dance,as well as a range of soothing spa services. Power Fit Studios also offers specialty classes in aromatherapy, chakra-meditation and vision board workshops.

About JEMKIDS
JEMKIDS was created by Jonerik Murphy to help develop a culture of physically fit children at a time when the statistics show that the obesity rate is increasing throughout the youth population. While many schools are reducing or eliminating physical education programs to dedicate more time to classroom work, something is being left out: Physical literacy. Simply put, today’s youth spend too much time sitting and not moving. No one can argue that improving performance in school isn’t important. However, it should not come at the expense of physical development.
In this advanced technological age, more children are spending time playing video games than playing outside. JEMKIDS’ programs were created to address this lack of physical activity. As children mature, there is a window of opportunity to develop motor skills and movement skills most efficiently. If children are inactive during the body’s maturation process, than these skills will either be limited or not developed at all. Consequently, there are short term (children being overweight) and long term effects (increased medical expenses and complications as adults). www.jemkids.com

Planet Kitchen Food and Wellness Tour

Posted on    by

Planet Kitchen celebrated its maiden voyage of its Planet Kitchen Healthy Organic Food, Drink and Wellness Tour, highlighting a growing trend towards healthy and sustainable living in South Florida. It also showcased local farms, markets, restaurants and businesses who make real food and drinks to heal us naturally from the inside out. 

Planet-Kitchen-138

We started our tour at Trio Studio, located in between Wynwood & the Design District (Midtown) in Miami. There we had a wonderful grounding meditation to start our journey followed by  an awesome demonstration of Budokon Yoga, AcroYoga, and Aerial Yoga.   Tour participants had an opportunity to get in on the action and try out AcroYoga for themselves.  It was really beautiful to participate and watch.

Afterwards, the folks at Sambazon shared a refreshing fruit, mint and frozen acai concoction called an “acai bowl.”  This superfood charged treat is also non-GMO, Fair Trade and b-certified. We enjoyed it so much, we purchased a bottle that same week.  I’m sure it will be a permanent part of our refrigerator as we support conscious companies and healthy nutrition.  Continue reading “Planet Kitchen Food and Wellness Tour” →

Mammograms are recommended for women each year starting at age 40. By calling (305) 825-4081 for an annual mammogram, qualifying women will be provided with screening performed by collaborating hospital and medical partners. If you haven’t received your mammogram this year, give them a call today!
This summer breast cancer awareness campaign is sponsored by the Women’s Breast Health Initiative, Florida Affiliate, a nonprofit organization that provides critical information and screenings to women in South Florida. Dedicated to fighting breast cancer as a deadly disease, WBHI empowers at-risk women to beat breast cancer through targeted door to door outreach, referrals, screening and/or treatment.
