DO THE LINDY HOP! *FUNDAMENTAL BASICS (8-CT)
This workshop is for EVERYONE: Newcomers and experienced dancers motivated to work on their foundations.
The Lindy Hop is a partner dance that originated in 1920's and 30's Harlem, New York. The Dance itself consists of both 8 and 6 count steps and it includes footwork borrowed from the Charleston and Tap. The dance can be wild and spontaneous, with frenzied kicks and body movements, or it can be cool and sophisticated. The most important aspects of it are that it is danced with your partner, to the music, and that you enjoy it!
Come comfy. Bring your sneakers, a smile and some friends.

Elson Torres
Being an original has never been a problem for the Cuban born, NYC raised singer-songwriter Elsten Torres. “Be yourself everyone else is already taken” is not only his favorite quote from Oscar Wilde, but also his personal motto.
A musical pioneer, having been credited as one of the prominent creators of the Latin Alternative Rock sound of the late 90’s in the USA, this eclectic and unconventional musician has cemented his artistic fingerprints in the music industry for over 3 decades now.
Elsten is a multicultural bilingual artist who has performed on stages all over the world as well as an award winning songwriter with major international hits. He has earned two GRAMMY nominations, two BMI songwriting awards, and six Billboard top ten hits throughout his career. Starting in 1994, with the Afro Cuban/Rock influenced hit, “Revolucion” (Revolution) under the moniker “Fulano De Tal”, Elsten began his recording trajectory with flying colors. Subsequently, he forms the band, “Fulano” and is signed to BMG/SONY Records and Warner Music Publishing, where his career takes off at an unstoppable velocity. He is often regarded as one of the true songsmiths of his generation for his uncanny ability to write songs that become instant classics in both Spanish and English and that appeal to a vast worldwide audience. In 2016, Elsten released his greatest hits album, “Exitos Acusticos” (Acoustic Hits) yet he continues to move forward in his musical journey as the always-creative chameleon forging ahead to new musical landscapes. He is currently working on his 10th full-length record, tentatively titled, “Real Artificial” and he is also involved as the host of a musical songwriting travel show currently under production in Miami, Florida.
Naida Lynn
Naida Lynn is a passionate singer/songwriter who is known for her raw, authentic music and warm, sultry voice.
Usually accompanied with just her voice & guitar, her style can be described as soul-rock with subtle folk influences.
Most people who have seen her perform note the brightness of her smile yet the realness of what she sings about.
Comparisons are often drawn to likes of Lauryn Hill, India Arie, or Lauren Daigle.

New Moon Women's Circle
THINGS TO BRING:
Wear comfortable clothing as we will be seated on the floor (chairs / pillows will be available for accessibility needs)
Journal/writing pad and pen
Water bottle
Your beautiful self
This Women's Circle will be a time to gather in community as the new moon settles in Scorpio. Scorpio represents transformation. Transformation requires us to pause, to reflect, and to find gratitude for the journey. In our world of constant doing and going, there is little room for being. We are creative beings desiring change and growth in all avenues of our lives, and yet we may not take the time to tap into that creative life force within us to allow the seeds we plant to blossom.
In this ceremony, you will be guided through a reflective meditation to honor the transformation within you and tap into that creative life force for continued transformation within you and in our world. We will participate in a guided gratitude practice to set intentions for the next month especially as we enter into the holiday season. There will be time for each person to reflect and share with each other as this is a participatory and experiential circle for connection and personal growth.
