Topanga Earth Days!

I am so excited for the 11th Annual Topanga Earth Day Festival this weekend!

"The 11th annual Topanga Earth Day festival, a 90 percent waste-free non-profit event, will unify people from around the world in celebration and promotion of ecological awareness, cultural respect, and music on Saturday, April 17, from 10 a.m. to 9:30 p.m., through Sunday, April 18, from 10 a.m. to 6:30 p.m.

Set in Topanga Canyon, Los Angeles’ original conscious-living community, the festival will give attendees the unique opportunity to learn about a variety of sustainable and holistic-living solutions through guest speakers and workshops, a healing village and ecological vendors who are “living by example”."

I feel very blessed to have been asked to facilitate a
Sound Bath/Sound Healing experience on
Saturday, April 17th at 12:45pm.
You can view the invite on Facebook : Sacred Sound

Here are the details:

Experience the PEACE of sound and sound healing.

Experience your Body, Mind, and Spirit as WHOLE.

Experience yourself as a BALANCED and HEALTHY being.

Jaqueline Marie provides a beautiful soundscape to journey into Self.
This one hour sound bath will attune the Chakras (energy centers), free stagnant energy in the meridians, and encourage the listener to tap into Alpha brain wave patterns, opening the gateways to creativity and genius.

The suggested Donation is $20
ALL are welcome!

Later in the afternoon I will also be offering a
Couples Yoga Class at 2:45pm
with the very talented Hatha Yoga teacher, Geoffrey Earendil.
You can view the invitation on facebook: Couples Tantra Yoga

Here are the details:

Join Jaqueline Marie and Geoffrey Earendil for a heart-centered, fun, and playful yoga experience.

This Partner Tantra Yoga class is appropriate for ALL levels, from novice to skilled yogi.

Partner Yoga is two or more people joining together to deepen the impact and experience of a yoga practice.

The word Tantra essentially means to weave, and the core of its philosophy is using everything that we relate to as the part of the path.

Partner Yoga holds the philosophy of using relationship as a tool for awakening to our true nature.

Come and play with a friend, a lover, a family member, your neighbor, whomever!

Suggested Donation: $20
ALL are welcome!

I look forward to seeing you this weekend!

Crazymaking

Theatre for the Claremont Colleges, Pomona College Department of Theatre and Dance presents the world premiere of: Crazymaking!

Crazymaking follows the character Casana Lee, from her dreams of being a rock star in 1980s Los Angeles to her destiny as a teacher and healer in her native Hawai’i. The play begins with Casana trying to gain celebrity, but failing at using her own voice. When an unexpected series of encounters return her to her family roots in Hawai’i, Casana uncovers how the overthrow of the Hawaiian Kingdom in 1893 continues to impact her life. As she slowly learns to trust her ‘aumakua, they lead her to back and forth between the dream world and her waking life in order to heal her past and find her true voice.

Playwright C. Mamo Kim, Ph.D. holds a doctorate in Political Science from the University of Hawai’i at M`anoa (UHM). She was the first publicly identified Native Hawaiian student in the history of UHM who became president of both the Associated Students and the Graduate Student Organization of UHM and was instrumental in many of the actions that furthered decolonization of the university including the implementation of a new vision and strategic plan (2002-2010) and the founding of Hawaiinuiakea School of Hawaiian Knowledge, one of the largest schools of indigenous knowledge in the nation.

Crazymaking chronicles the main character’s journey to: come to terms with the abuse in her life that stems from the violence of colonization; to find herself, her connection to spirit, and her purpose in life. The figure of Pele, the Hawaiian goddess of fire, figures prominently in the story, because she is an ancestor of Kim’s and, as Kim points out, “Pele is a huge Hawaiian female archetype. . .everyone should have a bit of Pele in them but especially for women, that aspect has been conditioned out of us. Pele is your spark of life. That spark is all you have. Everybody has a right to that spark. You have a right to be in our integrity and your power. You have to honor the Pele in you.”

Joyce Lu, Ph.D. directs this production of Crazymaking in collaboration with Kumu Hula Keoni Chang of Chino Hills’ Halau Na Pua Lehua I Ka Ua Noe.

Crazymaking features three young dancers from this Halau who play the parts of Pele, Hi’iaka, and Kamapua’a.
