Dance with Katy Today @ 10:15 am💖 214 Hillcrest Rd (TCC)

RitmoKá is a fusion of two words—Ritmo is rhythm in Spanish and Ká is for Katy. Together they mean Katy's rhythm. Routines are influenced by Latin steps such as Salsa, Samba, Flamenco, Merengue, and folklore as well as Jazz and Contemporary. RitmoKá is not only the choreography I bring to my classes but also my commitment to improving core strength so students can achieve their wish to dance forever!

🌟 Exciting Announcement! 🌟

Sean and I first met in Ann Barrett Eshabarr's jazz class back in the '90s, and we've shared a passion for dance ever since. We lived in NY at the same time—Sean stayed for 18 years, living the dancer's life. This year, after his back surgery, we discovered another shared love: cycling! We helped each other train for separate cycling events this summer 🚴‍♂️🚴‍♀️.

Now, I’m thrilled to announce that Sean will be teaching a series of Broadway/Musical Theater Jazz classes for me starting tomorrow! 🎶✨

📍 Location: 214 Hillcrest Rd.
🗓 Time: Fridays in September at 10:45 AM
💻 Hybrid classes—join us in person or online via Zoom!

Sean’s style is fantastic, and you’re going to LOVE it! 🎭💃 Don’t miss out! There’s also a performance opportunity on November 2nd if you’re interested.

Message me for the Zoom link! Let’s dance! 💥

Emeryville: A Tiny Town with an Outsized Trove of Public Art
Date: Tuesday, June 13
Meet: Public Market at noon

Emeryville -- all 1.2 square miles of it -- is filled with an astounding assortment public art, and more gets added all the time. Join Sandy Friedland for a tour of some of the best installations in courtyards, beside walkways, and even inside some corporate lobbies. Along the way, you’ll hear a bit about the colorful history of this fascinating little town, which Earl Warren dubbed “the rottenest city on the West Coast." The route is about two miles and is flat and paved, except for a few short runs of stairs leading to raised courtyards and steps leading to and from two pedestrian bridges over the railroad tracks. We’ll have a late lunch at Public Market after the walk — or we can stop at Rudy’s Can’t Fail sooner if we get hungry.
