SUMMARY:West African Drumming 6 Week Class with Fonziba
DESCRIPTION:6 Week Class in West African Drumming with Fonziba\nWednesday Nights 7 – 8:30pm\nSept 10\, 17\, 24\, & Oct 1\, 8\, 15\n@Full Moon Studio\, 1210 S. Gilbert St. Suite 105\, Iowa City\nDrum Provided\nCost: $150 for 6 week class (you must sign up for the whole session)\nOpen to All Levels\, Beginners to Advanced\nMust Pre-Register with Fonziba by Sept. 7th\nVia Text/Email earthdrummers@gmail.com 641-919-4155\n[Come to a 2 hour workshop the week before this class starts to try it out: https://www.facebook.com/share/1CAWuokPDW/ ]\nExperience the fun and exhilaration of playing West African rhythms on authentic djembe hand drums. Unlike many musical instruments\, djembe drums are easy to play.\nInstead of one drummer playing complex rhythms on a drum set\, Africans divide their intricate rhythms into simpler parts with different drummers playing each part. When all the parts are played together\, you create an African polyrhythm\, much like a drum orchestra.\nBecause African polyrhythms are broken down into simpler parts\, they are more accessible and easy to learn. They also create a wonderful sense of connection and community because everyone has to work together to create the polyrhythm.\nWhat’s more\, the raw power of these rhythms being played by many drummers uplifts and energizes everyone.\nFonziba offers workshops and classes in West African drumming for all levels of playing ability. She shares the energetics of drumming she learned while performing for weddings in Africa and from her many African drum teachers here in the United\nStates.\nBenefits of African Hand Drumming:\n Reduces blood pressure\, stress and anxiety\n Promotes a state of well being through increased endorphins\n Improves cognitive functioning through an increase in brain white matter\n Increases the body’s immune system\n Stimulates creativity and self-expression\n Improves co-ordination\, focus and recall\n Fun\, relaxing and energizing\nFonziba Koster has a B.A. in music education. For the last 27 years has presented her African Drumming & Culture programs to thousands in schools\, libraries\, museums\, churches and retirement communities throughout the Midwest. Fonziba has studied & performed with master drummers from Mali\, Guinea\, Senegal & the Ivory Coast. She also lived & performed with a traditional family of drummers in the Ivory Coast.\nFor more info – Fonzibadrums.com\nFonziba’s bio: https://www.fonzibadrums.com/about-fonziba.html

SUMMARY:Ecstatic Dance w/ live percussionist “Regional Coordinator of the Cosmic Yes”
DESCRIPTION:You are warmly invited to Full Moon Studio in Iowa City for our monthly Ecstatic Dance experience with live percussionist “Regional Coordinator of the Cosmic Yes”. \nLive Music-with original percussion\, soundscapes\, and soundloops\, created and performed by “Regional Coordinator of the Cosmic Yes”. His music will guide our dancing by starting slow\, building\, reaching a summit\, and then recovering with a cool down.\nRegional Coordinator is always exploring ways to link the group with the music and to create new music that resonates through improvisation…….so this evening we will invite you to contribute some spoken word interactive soundbite/soundloop/intentions to fold into the dance experience (optional).\n8-10pm\n7:45pm-Doors open-welcome to arrive early to settle in\n8pm-circle up and explain a bit about ecstatic dance and what to expect\n1.5 hours of dancing\nEnd with 15 mins guided cool down and grounding\n10pm-welcome to stay to chat and connect with community \nWhat is Ecstatic Dance?\n(quotes below from Asheville Movement Collective website)\n“…Ecstatic dance is an inner/outer journey\, an authentic moving meditation where presence and ecstasy can be experienced. It creates a direct body-mind-spirit connection\, allowing our body and inner guide to be our own teachers. It’s about being fully present\, transparent and real with oneself and others\, discovering our own true dance…”\n“At ecstatic dance you have no one to impress\, our attention is focused in ourselves not in others so you can be utterly yourself\, getting down\, letting loose\, allowing your emotions\, dreams and prayers to dance themselves\, freeing your mind and body while connecting with yourself\, others and spirit in a safe and healthy way.”\nThere is a wonderful longer description here:\nhttps://ashevillemovementcollective.org/…/what-is…/\nCost: Sliding scale $10-20\, Venmo or cash at the door\nBring:\nwater bottle (suggested)-there is water on site\nAltar item(optional)-if you would like to bring something to place in the center altar to connect with: your power\, nature\, spirituality\, grief\, life journey\, loved one\, sacred object (we won’t be sharing about these items\, this will be for you to interact with on a personal level while dancing and it will also bring your energy to the space)\nNote on spirituality: All spiritual traditions are welcome in this space \nBarefoot or socks are best\, but shoes are permitted if you need them.\nValuables: Best to leave in your car\, there isn’t a great place to store personal items. \nDirections: Across the street from Big Grove Brewery\, in the same building as Thai Spice Restaurant\, but all the way at the end of the row. Turn in the parking lot of Thai Spice and Euro Foods. There is no big sign for Full Moon yet on the street. There is a sign on the door of the studio. Free parking lot right outside. \n-Substance free space.\n-Dance alone or with others\, but please no contact on the dance floor. Physical safety/autonomy is a priority in this space.\n-Please don’t take photos or videos (not everyone feels ready to share this with the world and we want people to be able to be in the moment).
