Desk Work Injury Prevention

This course is designed to protect working people from common injuries and problems that come from sitting for long periods like lower back pain and stiff shoulders. The exercises taught in this event are designed to relieve pain and tension and bring basic core strength and flexibility back.

All SBJ training programs and exercises are designed to increase both strength and flexibility simultaneously; but this course is designed to hit particularly troublesome areas that can affect performance in everything from walking to just sitting upright.

Juneteenth Social

Legacy Foundation Japan would like to welcome our global community to observe Juneteenth on June 19th, 2021! Juneteenth is known as Freedom Day, Emancipation Day, and Jubilee Day. It commemorates the ending of slavery in America, two and a half years after the Emancipation Proclamation was signed to abolish slavery. The holiday was mostly celebrated in Texas and regions familiar with the anniversary. Juneteenth has grown recently to be recognized nationally and globally as African Americans continue to fight for rights and liberty.

Love and Soul: Soul Food Cooking Lesson

Soul food is traditional African American cooking that originated from the Southern United States. Often known as “down-home”, “southern cooking”, or “comfort food”, soul food is an integral part of Black food culture and often evokes strong feelings of home, family, and togetherness (healthline.com). Meals often include collard greens, macaroni and cheese, fried chicken, black eyed peas, ham hocks, cornbread, gumbo, candied yams, sweet potato pie, and peach cobbler.
