West Philadelphia Orchestra celebrates 3 years!

Sunday, November 1, 7:30 – 11 p.m.

West Philadelphia Orchestra is celebrating their third anniversary of merrymaking and bootyshaking by throwing a high-energy dance party for the West Philly community. Hooray! It’s not in a bar, doesn’t start at 11 pm, and it’s in the neighborhood. The band will play some traditional music from Eastern Europe, as well as their original compositions that meld world rhythms, jazz, and Philly soul in one joyful sound. Bring family, friends, foods, drinks, and dancing shoes. $5 donation.

More info: www.westphiladelphiaorchestra.com and on MySpace

Saturdays, November 7 & 21, and December 5 & 19, 3:15 p.m. – 5:15 p.m.

These 2 hour classes will take us deeper into this cathartic, joyful, insightful, and wild Spiritual Movement Practice. The classes will form a series, but can be taken on their own. They will build on the Tasters we have held, but Newcomers are very welcome!

The 5Rhythms® of Flowing, Staccato, Chaos, Lyrical, and Stillness form ‘The Wave’, a simple movement meditation practice that encourages us to find our own dance of embodied feeling and to discover ourselves at our most fluid and creative level, bringing more of ourselves –body, heart, mind & soul- into movement, on the dance floor & out in the world. There are no steps to learn and it can be enjoyed by anyone, regardless of age, fitness, ability, or experience.

Cost: $15 each, $10 students/elders, but no one turned away (Class card will buy 4 for cost of 3).

Richard McConnell Jerram has been dancing the 5Rhythms since 1996. He brings heart, humor, and eight years’ experience as an accredited teacher.
