NORTH ADAMS, Mass.— Casita restaurant, located at 1111 MASS MoCA Way, will host a Choke Saver Class for the community on Monday, May 12, 2025, at 10:00 AM.

The class is inspired by a recent incident at the restaurant where a guest choked, and Casita's chef and owner, Justin Forstmann, administered the Heimlich maneuver to clear the airway. This event highlighted the importance of knowing how to respond to such emergencies.

In partnership with Berkshire Community College (BCC), Casita will offer a comprehensive class covering the identification of choking signs in adults, children, and infants. Participants will also learn the correct techniques for the Heimlich maneuver and other necessary steps for airway obstruction emergencies.
