Alchemically fusing the ancient art of holistic healing and consciousness expansion through sound-waves with the modern art of YashAkasha's cutting-edge emceeing and fresh bars of poetic fire... ...The lyrics remain deeply conscious and intentional while also staying defiantly true to the gritty roots of the Hip Hop movement as a spiritual and artistic revolution for the people. ...So if you’re looking to get your mind blown wide open... You’ve finally found you’re medicine! Yash Akasha grew up in Boston, MA to a family of poetic Jewish immigrants, dissidents, and progressive thinkers. Exposed to Hip Hop culture early on, he quickly fell in love. It spoke directly to his free-spirited nature. As an Emcee, YashAkasha receives and manifests creative visions that bring people together to celebrate peace, love, unity, and joy. He's continued to study rhymes since the turn of the century (his entire life).

Walking on Edges, building informed boundaries as we play with our inner child. Contact Dance, is an improvisational style of movement dancers maintain near constant physical contact – while lifting, falling, being upside down, rolling and putting weight on one another. Practice begin with a meditation/centering & move into stretching, weight sharing, sliding, jumping and ends with gravity-defying lifts as we share each other's centers. Somatically exploring our inner and outer senses, moving to feel, moving to connect, moving in joy. ●○●○●○●○●○●○●○●○● 🌟Dance event is located downstairs large room beside kombucha bar.
