SUMMARY:Workshop: Contact Improvisation with Felice Wolfzahn
DESCRIPTION:Taught by Felice Wolzahn \n$65 early registration (before April 15)\n$75 regular price \nCome for the afternoon to explore an introduction to this invigorating\, spirited\, and rich dance. Contact Improvisation is primarily a duet movement form; a resonating exploration of how moving in balance with ourselves allows us to move in greater harmony with others. Two people move together playing in a physical dialogue\, communicating through the language of touch\, momentum\, and physical listening. We will explore some of the basic skills and concepts including: weight sharing\, rolling\, counterbalancing\, gentle movement patterns\, and tuning our senses to touch. In turn\, we cultivate a relaxed\, fluid body and a responsive\, attentive mind. Skill work will be interspersed with guided improvisations\, taking time to share observations of this spirited and playful movement form. All levels of experience are welcome! \nBio:\nFelice Wolfzahn is a veteran teacher of Contact Improvisation\, teaching in colleges and dance centers for over 25 years. She holds a BFA from the Juilliard School and a Masters degree from Bennington College. She has been teaching in the Five College dance department of MA for the past twenty-three years and has taught in many colleges and dance programs including The School for New Dance Development in Holland\, American Dance Festival\, NC\, and Earthdance in Western MA. Felice’s work combines investigations into Authentic Movement and Contemporary dance techniques as well. She has collaborated with other artists including Nancy Stark Smith\, Catherine Sands and Daniel Lepkoff. Felice is interested in how dance can be instructional as well as nurturing; fostering self-awareness\, and incorporating the whole self into its investigations.

SUMMARY:Workshop: Introduction To Tai-Chi Long Form
DESCRIPTION:Introduction To Tai-Chi Long Form\nwith Kampa VaShi Deva\nSaturday March 10\, 2018 @ MAGMA\nAll Levels Welcome! No Experience Needed \nRESERVE A SPOT \nThe Classical Yang Family Long Form is a traditional Tai-Chi Chuan form passed down to family members and disciples by the Great-Great Grand Master Yang Cheng-Fu (1883-1936) who is famously known as the father of the 108 Form. \nThe descriptive meaning of Tai-Chi is “superior-ultimate”. In other literal versions it is known as a “moving meditation” or “moving like a great river”. The word Chuan means fist”. In Chinese texts Chuan also means boxing”. Together Tai-Chi Chuan means Superior-Ultimate Shadow Boxing. This practice is a martial art with slow\, relaxed\, and flowing movements. It is ideal for those seeking gentle rehabilitative exercises for reducing tension and stress of the body. In today’s modern medicine doctors refer Tai-Chi to their clients for supporting balance and controlling anxiety. Devoted students are known to study Tai-Chi Chuan for “innate power” of your “true nature” through calmness. It is a low impact exercise that emphasizes on balance\, grace\, and fluidity through motion. \nAs you learn the late Yang Cheng Fu’s form you will focus on physical body alignments (body structure) and methods of moving (body mechanics) to prevent and heal various injuries as well as making both body and mind stronger more relaxed and focused. The internal frame is largely emphasized with expanded movements specialized in what we refer to as Qi\, Energy in the body. (See schedule below) \nThis class is lead by Kampa VaShi Deva (Sifu Nicanor Snow) founder of the Seacoast Tai-Chi Institute

SUMMARY:M'Bolo
DESCRIPTION:M’bolo\, meaning “togetherness” in the Senegalese language Wolof\, embraces this ethos in the creation of their high-octane hybrid of Mbalax and Rock. \nLead singer/percussionist Cheikh Ngom began singing\, dancing\, and playing sabar drums at the age of four in the coastal city of Kaolack\, Senegal. After performing throughout Africa and Europe\, Ngom arrived in the United States\, where he founded M’bolo with Dillon Zahner (guitar)\, Galen Willett (bass)\, Arone N’diaye (keys)\, and Beza Gebre (drumset). Guitar\, bass\, keys\, and drums combine to form a rhythmically intricate lattice of propulsive licks\, snaking leads\, and hypnotizing grooves\, punctuated by the rapid-fire attack of the sabar drums. \nLive shows are highlighted by the explosive energy of Ngom’s dance moves\, fusing his Kaolack roots with a Michael Jackson flair. Their debut album\, entitled M’bolo\, captures the fiery spirit of their live shows as well as the incantations of their more introspective and meditative chansons. \nDoors open at 8pm. B.Y.O.B. \nHear them at www.mbolomusic.com

SUMMARY:Primal Roots
DESCRIPTION:Join us at the new hot MAGMA studios in Gloucester\, MA for the next Primal Roots with Jason Cohen & INCUS. We will be exploring some of our boundaries in the darkness and returning light. Let’s access the deep passionate feelings we’ve been keeping inside and let them out in our dance\, music and in our voices. \nINCUS will be performing first for a very special set of their powerful brand of music. Then they will be joining Primal Roots for the second half. \nPrimal Roots is a dance on the North Shore that uses music and art to create an energetic journey of movement and sound. Our intention is to co-create a night of ecstatic bliss and soulful exploration of the mind\, body and spirit. This is a barefoot\, alcohol-free dance. \n$15 in advance  or $20 at the door. \nAbout Incus: \n\n\n\n\nDrawing on varying influences both musical and spiritual\, Incus stands beyond simple definition in it’s musicality and style. \nIncus expresses a willingness to embrace the totality of human emotion. An Incus performance is a gathering of people who come together to live and breathe the fullness of being alive\, to raise the energy to move toward ecstasy. The element of fire both illuminates and transforms\, and it is this energy that Incus embodies while holding space for people to acknowledge the dark and move toward the light. \nThe band is equally at home  onstage\, plugged in or acoustic\, in cathedrals with choirs\, or at fire festivals and ceremonies around the country. They have gained appreciative followings from these diverse settings. During the last many years\, Incus toured countless miles\, making music at 100’s of fires and festivals including Burning Man\, Envision Festival\, Unifier Festival\, Gratifly Festival\, DiscJam\, PermaJam\, Zen Awakening\, Devotionfest\, Boston Green Fest\, Firedance\, Boston’s Trinity Church and at various venues in the US and in Central America. \nJason Cohen\, the visionary force of the band\, has been a part of numerous healing and expressive arts rituals around the world and is the producer and artistic curator for Unifier Festival. His knowledge\, experience\, and training as a ritual facilitator becomes a part of every Incus performance. Jason is also known for his work producing 31 Forestdance gatherings\, which have taken place in 7 US states and nine times in Costa Rica. \n\n\nwww.incus.net \n\nwww.facebook.com/MusicShapedByFire \n\nwww.instagram.com/incus_music
