I stumbled upon belly dance almost 6 years ago after breaking my wrist and going through a divorce, and it was one of the most healing experiences I’ve ever had. Belly dance improves the flow of our life force energy which is innately healing. I hope belly dance can be as nurturing and healing for you as it has been for me!…

This 7 week series is for the absolute beginner or those wishing to review the basics. Drop-in or come for the whole series. Belly dance is for anyone. Each class will begin with a warm up and stretching. I will review basic moves and build on those moves throughout the series. We will work on some basic choreography with 1 song towards the end of the series. If you’ve never taken a class with me before your first class is $10. Wear similar clothes that you would to a yoga class- there is no need to expose your belly. Hip scarves are optional. If you are under 18 y.o. I ask that you have a parent or legal guardian attend the class as well.

No dance experience is needed. No class on January 24th- if there is enough interest I may stream an online class for Q & A.

Mitch’s Totally Rad Trivia is a team trivia played in 7 rounds over the course of 2 endlessly entertaining hours. The game covers everything pop culture and is always irreverent by nature. The game is not your average pub quiz as it explores everything from didgeridoo covers of pop songs to bad celebrity tattoos and everything in between. Ever wanted to identify animals by their gonads? Then this is the game for you! Mitch curates a one of a kind trivia smorgasbord of random, unusual, and hilarious subjects. This absurd trivia game is not about historical facts or sports stats, it is all about random movies, unforgettable ear-worms, and the hilariousness of growing up in the 80’s and 90’s. The game starts at 7pm in the cozy One Stop in downtown Asheville. Drink specials include $4 bourbon/$4 Washington Apple Shots and $5 White Russians, and food is available from MOJO Kitchen which offers 1/2 price nachos during the game! Best of all the winning team each week takes home a collection of Totally Rad Prizes including a $35 gift certificate to The One Stop/MOJO Kitchen.

My name is Amber and I’m the owner of Kleidoscope Yoga. I’m an instructor, artist, dancer, cat lover, coffee consumer and I’m over the moon to introduce you back (or to) Groove on OM!

For an hour once a week I’m offering you a safe space where you can honor yourself with no pressures, no expectations, no judgment, no worries – just a load of dancing FUN with some great gals!

It’s a safe space to be yourself. What we do here (even as silly as we may look or seem) stays here. And there’s no choreography so even if you feel like you can’t dance – just find what movements your body craves and GO FOR IT!

I encourage singing, bouncing, hootin’, hollerin’, shaking and whatever else strikes your fancy.

What I want is for Groove on OM to grow so more women like you and I have a place to PLAY, let loose, lift each other up and create some powerful magic together. So gather up your girlfriends, sisters, aunts or mothers and daughters (as long as they’re 18)!

This six-week session runs January 31st – March 7th. The drop-in price is $13 cash only please but you can save $18 if you purchase the entire 6-week session for only $60! It’s a great commitment to make time for yourself, with your girlfriends, to get exercise or blow off steam. To purchase the session, my safe paypal link is below. Of course, cash or checks are always accepted as well for the full session price.

If you want to try #GrooveonOM once for the drop in price and decide you love it – you can still purchase the rest of the weeks in the session as a bundle at $10 a class! Even if you join us in the 3rd week – you’ll still save some cashola!

If you’re like me, dancing feels like it brings a fresh perspective to life. It releases stagnant energy and makes space for new ideas. It’s MAGIC And DAMN if it doesn’t feel good!

Dancing has been a beautiful form of communication since the beginning of time and there IS something primal about letting your body just move to the music without a care in the world. I believe you just have to find that comfortable space to let that happen.

We will take a few moments to greet one another, set intentions and then get our groove on with all sorts of different types of music. There is no choreography, just the opportunity to let your body find it’s rhythm and flow no matter what that feels or looks like!

****Just a quick note. Please respect that there will be no drugs or alcohol permitted, you must be at least 18 years of age and what happens at Groove on OM stays at Groove on OM.***

Again, here is the pricing for you – $60 for 6 weeks beginning Thursday, January 31st or $13 cash to drop in.

Dress comfortably – or in costume – come dressed in a way that calls to you.

I can’t wait to see you there and by the way, if you have a tune that gets your booty shakin’ let me know! I’m always looking for music to add to the playlist.

Namaste ♥

A musical version of the 1984 film! When teenager Ren McCormack moves from Chicago to a small town, he isn’t prepared for the stifling local laws, including a ban on dancing and rock music instituted by the local preacher. As he struggles to fit in, he encourages his classmates to defy the local pastor and call for a rock’n’roll prom. Fist pump!

“Footloose” combines songs from the hit 1984 soundtrack with dynamic new songs – and though it might seem like just a lot of fun, it also celebrates the wisdom of opening minds and listening to the voices of young people. Director Jerry Crouch, music director Lynda Ferrell Shuler, and choreographer Tina Pisano-Foor have put together an incredible cast of students and adults from our community to bring “Footloose” to life!

Becca’s ease and appeal has been showcased at events including the Asheville Comedy Festival and clubs such as the DC Improv.

Hosted by Allie Steinhoff
