She combines many elements, learned from her vast variety of musical experience, to offer a truly innovative type of artistic expression. Her popularity with spiritually focused dance crowds comes from her unique hybridization of original production featuring her live vocals and flute playing with carefully selected inspirational dance tracks from various artists from around the world. Her performances flow from celestial grooves to tribal world rhythms to down tempo dance dub to collective ascensions to higher realms. Sasha is one of the most sought after dj's for Ecstatic Dance and Ecstatic Dance styled events throughout California and beyond. www.sasharosemusic.com Cocréa Partner Dance - Wren LaFeet Embracing life as a dance, Cocréa is a continually evolving holistic movement modality intended to bring individuals into strong, empowered, expressive relationships with their bodies. Based in the structure common to many of the world’s social partner dances – mainly American vernacular Jazz dance, as well as the spontaneous play of improvisational theater, dancers invite and allow an easeful flow of ideas to emerge through listening and responding in presence to the moment. With its origins in the Fusion partner dance movement, which has been hugely inspired by the resistance dances of Blues, Swing, Hip-Hop as well as Cuban Salsa and Tango, the practice is to meet one another where we are, join and blend energies and engage in an explorative movement dialogue working towards liberation of the body and the co-creation of coherence and ultimately unity. As we hone this dynamic, kinetic toolbox, we emphasize connection, communication and creative expression between two people within a community of others. www.nomaddance.com/about/cocrea/ Upstairs: Free Coat & Bag Check (8pm - 11:30pm) Cushy Mats, Conversation, & Free Kung Fu Tea Service benefitting Om Shan Tea At the Bar: Brilliant Herbal Elixirs, Rhythmic Seed Dancing Cuisine & Firefly Chocolates Main Floor Windows: Meditation Altar & Table Massage available $18 Drop In Multiple Discount Passes also Available at the Door 4 for $15 each ($60), 10 for $13 each ($130) Cash or Card.
