Her goal is to have each client leave feeling restored in body, mind, and spirit.

Meditative Ecstatic Dance with Gina Maron & Ashley Thornton 1st & 3rd\ Thursdays of the month, from 8 to 9:30pm 

Ecstatic dance is a free-form movement. When you attend a Dance Your Truth class, you are in a safe loving environment with no judgments, no critics just you. You have the freedom to tap into your own inner wisdom, the wisdom you forgot you have that helps you get through every stage of life. Sometimes you forget you can trust our own intuition, you even forget to listen to it. But it’s there. It never left. You just get busy and bogged down and forget to find a peaceful place to hear it.

How To Be A Rock Critic

July 17th-28th at the Kirk Douglas Theatre

Manic. Impossibly creative. Dead of an overdose at 33. Gonzo journalist Lester Bangs was America’s greatest rock critic and the first missionary of the movement he dubbed “punk.” His faith was shattered as the rebel ethos of the ’70s gave way to the corporate pop of the ’80s. Through his own words, this solo play sheds light on a groundbreaking, pioneering voice in music.
