Live in the DDL courtyard…..

Laura Veirs and the Tumble Bees

in Concert

Sunday February 26th, 2:00pm

Admission is free!

Rain or shine – in the case of rain an acoustic show will take place in our indoor studio

Join acclaimed singer-songwriter Laura Veirs and her great band The Tumble Bees as they plays songs off her debut family music album Tumble Bee.

This great free show will feature colorful costumes, an interactive performance style, and fun for children of all ages. Don’t miss it!

Here's a sneak peak of Laura's music:

“Most new parents are a bit lost when faced with the dilemma of weeding out the good children’s music from the bad. For musician couples, like singer/songwriter Laura Viers and her producer/husband Tucker Martine, the solution is simple; make your own. On Tumble Bee, Viers and Martine, along with special guests Béla Fleck, Basia Bulat, Colin Meloy (the Decemberists), and Jim James (My Morning Jacket), explore some of the genre’s oldest tunes, including work songs (“Jump Down Spin Around”), Civil War tunes (“Soldier’s Joy”), and even a calypso (“Jamaica Farewell”). Each cut is tastefully arranged and never cloying, and Viers’ simple, honest delivery helps to keep the mood fun, yet stable and sweet, without the inevitable sugar rush.” – All Music

“Laura’s folk songs for children prove that the best children’s music never gets old.” – singer/songwriter Sufjan Stevens

“Tumble Bee is a welcome addition to contemporary children’s music, not only because it’s sufficiently involving to appeal to adults, but also because it further demonstrates that songs for kids don’t have to be cloying or sanitized.” – Pitchfork

IMPROV FOR KIDS!

with Sarah ReynoldsImprov point

Fall Session 2011
September 22nd - November 10th
Thursdays 4-4:45 pm

FREE DEMO!
September 15th

Improv is…
A special type of theatre that requires only an active imagination to get started! Children in their limitless creative potential are natural improvisers. Our improvisation workshops are a unique opportunity for your child to explore acting, comedy, fantasy, or the fun in just being themselves!

Improv Playground, Boys & Girls Ages 6-9:
Imaginations are invited to run wild in this playful improv workshop tailored to young performers. Through games, storytelling, and play children will learn to act on their creative impulses, clearly express their ideas and intentions to an audience, and work constructively with others to spontaneously create a world to explore on stage. Each semester culminates in an improvised show for family and friends, inspired entirely by student input and audience participation.

Fall Schedule:
September 22th – November 10th

Thursdays:
4:00 – 4:45pm – Improv Playground, Boys & Girls Ages 6-9

Dragonfly Dulou Announces MaYoga!

2010-11-28T11:33:00.000-08:00

Beginning January 20th, 2011

with Jessica Jennings
and Cindi Cnop

Preschool Yoga (ages 3-5 years): Wednesdays 3 – 3:45 pm with Jessica
Mommy Yoga + Baby (pre-crawlers): Thursdays 5 – 6:15 pm with Cindi
Prenatal Yoga: Thursdays 6:30 – 7 :45 pm with Cindi MA YOGA is a group of yoga teachers dedicated to helping women enjoy their journey to motherhood and beyond. We believe that pregnancy can be an opportunity to connect to our bodies and our hearts in a whole new way; experience the importance of community by meeting other moms-to-be; and embody the highest Self. We offer classes where women can gather, share stories and tips, find guidance and support, and use muscles and breath to move toward optimal alignment so they can leave feeling uplifted and strong.

MA YOGA teachers come from different backgrounds, and combine yoga principles with what they’ve found to be helpful in their own lives. We create a safe and playful class atmosphere in which women can explore their connection to their bodies and their babies in new, enjoyable and empowering ways.

Our teachers have been inspired by the Anusara philosophy of learning to “skillfully move in the current of the heart,” and we continue to study and practice ways of applying this philosophy in our lives to find more freedom, steadiness, and joy. We also continue studying and practicing the Anusara Universal Principles of Alignment, which helps on a biomechanical level reduce pain and deepen our connection to innate strength.

Prenatal Yoga: Some women start the moment they find out they’re pregnant, others wait until they can get p off the couch... MA YOGA teachers incorporate the Anusara Universal Principles of Alignment to help get rid of aches and pains and increase strength and freedom safely at ANY TIME of pregnancy. Partners are welcome to attend.

Mommy Yoga + Baby: Yoga for new moms means practicing in between feeds and changes. Come do what you can and enjoy some time with your breath, your baby and other moms. Come until they’re rawling. Preschool Yoga: Yoga for 3-5 year olds. Take a 45 minute break and know your little one is gaining important tools to connect to a feeling of peaceful goodness inside – and having a blast in the process!

Happy Holiday Jam with ….

EGG

Sunday, December 12th @ 11:00am

“Go ahead and file this alt-rock trio’s phenomenal debut CD in the “Mommy? Daddy? Why are you listening to my music?” pile. The members of “EGG” are obviously firm believers in the there’s-no-need-to-dumb-it-down school of children’s music, and their fantastically fun album proves that parents and kids definitely can rock along together, singing the same lyrics in unison. Egg may be the quintessence of cross-generational appeal!”
- Christopher Healy, Cookie Magazine..

See you there!
