Andy J. Estrella, owner of Vineyard Yoga, graduated from the Canadian Academy of Osteopathy on Nov. 9 with a master’s in the practice of osteopathic manipulative science (M.OMSc).

This is the latest accomplishment in Mr. Estrella’s continuing education. After graduating from Springfield College in 2000 with a bachelor’s of science degree, he completed training to become a certified Bikram hot yoga instructor, a licensed massage therapist and a certified craniosacral therapist. He is now a certified osteopath, as well.

When it comes to nutrition on Martha’s Vineyard, Islanders are well on their way to ideal conditions for providing healthy food to the year-round c

A week ago more than 100 people from around the world beganarriving on the Vineyard. Most looked like regular folks, bearded or not, wearing jeans or skirts, sneakers and shoes. They could have been leaf peepers who took a wrong turn on their way to the Berkshires. But some wore flowing crimson robes, a visible sign that this group was up to something different.

Junior defensive end Aaron Lowe’s head hurt after the Sept. 15 football game against Bristol-Plymouth. It wasn’t the score of the game causing the headache — the Vineyard had just taken an exciting 28-26 win. Rather, Aaron had suffered a mild concussion after taking a hit during a routine play. Donald Herman, the seasoned high school football coach, noticed Aaron seemed a bit confused after the game and sent him to see athletic trainer Tania Laslovich. The next day Ms. Laslovich gave Aaron a cognitive test to determine the severity of the concussion.
