Hello Zohar Community,

OPPORTUNITY FOR A GROUP TO ATTEND SMUIN CONTEMPORARY BALLET  (ADRIENNE FOLEY)

• Smuin Contemporary Ballet returns to Mountain View Performing Arts for their Spring offering, Future Forward, with four fabulous works!  Adrienne Foley would love to get a group together for the Sunday, May 17th@2pm performance and secure a group rate!  We need 10 or more participants, however the more we get over 10, the deeper the discount!  Please let Adrienne know if you would like to attend on that date by emailing her at apf...@sbcglobal.net as soon as possible. For more information on Future Forward, see link: Future Forward at Smuin Ballet  https://www.smuinballet.org/events/future-forward/ 
• A Description of the program:
  Future Forward is grounded in the Company’s past while looking boldly ahead. Hearts Suite is an excerpt from founder Michael Smuin’s beloved ballet set to the songs of Edith Piaf. Based on a concept and scenario written by Raquel Bitton and originally choreographed for San Francisco Ballet in 1986, the suite has not been seen on the Smuin stage since 2015. Kate Skarpetowska’s Sextette, a joyful piece set to Bach, also returns.
• Two world premieres cement Smuin’s ongoing commitment to new work. Artistic Director Amy Seiwert creates her 15th ballet, featuring the solo piano intermezzi of Johannes Brahms. Andi Schermoly, formerly of Nederlands Dans Theater, brings her cinematic and athletic choreography to her first piece for the Company. Don’t miss this final program of the season!

SUMMER DANCE INTENSIVE (SDI) June 15 - 19 TRANSFORMATION YOU WILL FEEL!

• Five days. One week. Measurable progress.
• There are things that happen when you train every day for five consecutive days that simply cannot happen in a single weekly class. This intensive is built for that transformation. Dancers leave with a deeper understanding of their bodies, a sharper ability to absorb corrections, and measurable technical progress they can see and feel.

• Times: MONDAY - WEDNESDAY, 10:30am - 5pm/ THURSDAY, 9:00 am - 4:00 pm/ FRIDAY, 10:30 am - 4:00pm

• This is for anyone 14 yo and up. All levels of dance welcomed.

• Dance Classes will consist of: Ballet, Jazz, Musical Theater Choreography, Tap, Luigi Technique, Contemporary, and Modern.
• Link: https://zohardancecompany.org/summer-dance-intensive Please share with anyone who is interested in training or even a dance vacation! 

LUIGI TECHNIQUE TEACHER CERTIFICATION LEVEL 2

That is it for now!!! Quick and short. We hope you all have a lovely and safe week.

With gratitude,
