AJ Calloway's Stress Relief Tips At ABFF [VIDEO]


AJ Calloway (Extra) hosted American Black Film Festival's (ABFF) HBO Short Film Competition on June 20, 2013 at the Colony Theatre in Miami, Florida.  ABFF is a five day retreat dedicated to strengthening the Black filmmaking community.

AJ has a busy schedule and a new wife with a baby on the way.  In addition to checking out the nervous competitors' films, I had the opportunity to ask AJ how he manages stress. He shares his tips for what he does for stress relief and his experience with Yoga in the video below.

INVITATION - Sunday, June 23rd. 7pm - 10pm | SUMMER SOLSTICE SUPER MOON SOIREE

Penthouse Pot Luck to witness the "Super Moon" - the closest and largest full moon of the year, it also represents the moon's closest encounter with earth in a long time.


At this point space is limited to six people. Due to the limited capacity, please commit if you sign up - there is no "Maybe."

Just observing the moon and chillin' with friends and healthy snacks :-) Not a Yoga session in the all out physical way - more about mindfulness of the moon - as we evolve the summer solstice...


Coordinate with me for your healthy dish contribution.


Yoga Flava Penthouse Sanctuary, 235 W. 102nd Street. (Between Bway and West End Avenue)
