POI WORKSHOP

2008-09-16T13:31:13Z

"Poi" is the Maori word for "ball" on a cord. Poi is a form of juggling where the balls are swung around the body. The word "Poi" is both plural and singular. (I have one Poi, he has two Poi).

From it's beginnings Poi had the purpose of enhancing dance and rhythm. It was soon realized that Poi swinging had several other benefits from wrist strength, flexibility and improving coordination to name a few. Mastering simple Poi moves can quickly improve self-esteem and gain respect from others. Hence the reason it quickly becomes addictive. And like all performance arts you are only limited by your imagination.

Get started today!

Please join our **POI WORKSHOP**

LUCAS an amazing POI and staff spinner is coming all the way from Richmond to give us this Poi workshop. This workshop will focus more on Intermediate to Advance spinners, but beginners are also welcome..

Check me out!

2008-02-07T22:15:02Z

1) Hire a belly dancer! Andalee is available for public and private performances in the Triangle area. She'll provide a family friendly-experience with all the glitz and glam that people come to expect from belly dancers.

You may want to hire a belly dancer for:
-Parties, birthdays or any type of celebration in a private home or rented space
-Weddings or bachelorette parties (no bachelor parties)
-Corporate events, such as fund-raising/charity events, staff meetings and conferences
-Restaurants and nightclubs--bring in more customers with the allure of a Middle Eastern dancer
-Local festivals or parades
-Belly dance mini-workshops for women's clubs, groups or parties
-Children's birthday parties or celebrations
-Cultural events or school assemblies
-If something you have in mind isn't listed, just contact me to let me know how you think a belly dancer could enhance your event.

Send a private message to ask about performance availability and rates.(No all male groups. Inappropriate behavior will not be tolerated.)

Interested in learning belly dance? I am a teacher too! I teach at the local Ninth St Dance in Durham and also in North Raleigh. For more details about hiring a belly dancer or learning how to belly dance, visit http://andalee.oriental.googlepages.com/home.

2) Throw a Jewelry Party or get custom-made jewelry! I present at-home parties, much like Pampered Chef or Silpada Jewelry...only I make the jewelry myself! You'll be sure to get you and your friends something unique without the high-pressure and low-quality of other at-home party brands.

Please visit my Web site to view my collections: http://www.mountainstothesea.biz/

3) OK, I'll throw in a third...I am also a graphic designer and am able to do small-scale graphic design for other small businesses. I have a degree in mass communication and I've been working in the communications/marketing field for 4 years. I've always worked at nonprofits, so I know a thing or two about designing on a tight budget. I have great prices and I will always try to get you more for your money. I know what people want and I know how to make them want it even more when they see your smoking-hot materials!

And if that wasn't enough to get your interest...surprise! I am also an editor and copywriter. I can help you find your angle, write content and then polish it up.

The bottom line:
I charge a base rate of $27 per hour.
Extra images and file types will cost $20 per file. (Example: I only gave you a jpeg and you need the native Photoshop file.)
Travel is extra...$0.49 cents a mile.
You pay for all printing, shipping and rush charges.

Please contact me for more information or questions about any of this! I can be reached at 919-923-8801 or private message me.

Cheers,
Megan
aka Andalee

Web Design Instruction?

2008-01-06T17:15:36Z

I'm in the Chapel Hill/Carrboro area and I would like to learn web design.

I have a lot of experience with using Dreamweaver (basic changing text, adding pages, creating links, etc.) and also have a lot of experience creating web design architecture (coming up with the pages, layout, navigation, while the designer makes it happen), but I am now ready to learn design.

I'm very web savvy and a quick learner.

I only know the basics of HTML, but I love it so far.

I would be up for learning how to design using Dreamweaver and/or with backend HTML.

I learn easiest with a combination of reading/self learning and hands-on/instruction, so I would definitely do my studying (I've already started) but I'd like to be someone's apprentice - and get some hands on instruction too.

I can offer payment and/or bartering as well. I am a writer and social media marketer for barter.

Thanks!

Seeking someone to share garden space

2007-11-22T02:23:34Z

Spring is finally happening and I am starting on my garden!
It is too big for me, and I have been adding some fruit trees to take up some room - still there is enough space to feed another family.
The space has been gardened for the past 15 years and has many well established beds that have just been freshened up with a giant load of compost and eggshells. It is not 100% organic b/c I do not know the contents of the compost and I use osmocote while seed starting indoors. After that - I do not use any powders or poisions on the plants.
I have shared gardens before - but not this one! I am looking forward to filling it out.
I am located on Sugar Lake Rd between Chapel Hill and Pittsboro
Thanks!!

Place to stay for a Week in Chapel Hill

2007-11-22T02:22:12Z

Hello,

I'm Sara (sathya). I'll be coming to Chapel Hill from Asheville to take a weeklong dance intensive and I'm wondering if any kind folks out there could put me up in their home for the week, or even a few nights. I'm very laid back, vegetarian, healthy, don't smoke, etc.., but I do have pretty serious cat allergies so I'd need to be in a pet-free place.

I'll be arriving October 4th and leaving on the 11th.

Thanks!!!

Those who knew him will miss him

2007-11-13T21:48:03Z

I received word today that a great man, a Chapel Hill icon passed away.
http://www.newsobserver.com/smedia/2007/11/13/02/387-reg-1793327-1153357
Easily recognizable, Marty could be seen pushing a lawnmower with his chest (while rubberneckers slowed traffic down).

I met him when I worked at Applebee's in the early 90s. He was the handyman, and always available to help out--in fact, he was more helpful than many of the able-bodied people I knew.
He was soft-spoken, kind and had a wonderful sense of humor.

You will be missed, Marty. Shake feet with St. Peter when you get there.

Hoop Workshop Carrboro June 23

2007-06-10T14:49:27Z

Hi All, come on out to a hoop dancing workshop taught by the beautiful and talented, Patika Starr. Ladies are welcome to join us. Here are the details...Let me know by sending a private message if you want to come!

Hooping is sexy and is an amazing form of exercise. It can also be meditative and is a wonderful way of creatively expressing yourself. With fast music, hooping provides a great cardio workout and burns fat. Hooping targets core strength, but is a great toner for the whole body. The best thing about hooping is its fun!

In Patika's beginners hoop workshop, we'll explore the fundamentals of hoop dance and go over the basics. Using adult sized hoops you will learn to keep the hoop up, how to move with the hoop, off body hooping, angle hooping, lifting the hoop off your body and other impressive tricks. We will then apply all that we've gone over to dance- hoop dance! Patika will include in the class a short hoop dance performance to give you an idea of where you can take your hooping. The class is 2 hours long and their will be an additional break in between hours and a performance at the end.

What to Bring: Please bring $30.00 for the class (cash please) water, sun block, a hoop (if you have one), and a smile!

What to Wear: Dress in clothes that are tighter fitting and will allow you to move. It is best if the fabrics you wear are not slippery (like shiny lycra). Cotton is a great fabric. Hoops stick best to skin. We recommend wearing sleeveless or short sleeve shirts and shorts or a mini skirt (one that allows you to move).

What will be provided: There will be hoops that you can use in class and some to sell. There cost is $35.00. If more hoops are required than I have to sell, you may special order them.

Workshop taught by Patika Starr

Barbara Marciniak and the Pleiadians

2006-12-07T19:55:14Z

Barbara Marciniak, one of my favorite authors (Bringings of the Dawn, Earth, Family of Light, Path of Empowerment) is speaking tonight at Dancing Moon Bookstore, from 7pm-9m. Barbara is a trance channel who channels Pleiadians. She's local and speaks (channels) often, but this is my first time seeing her. Here’s more info:

(taken from her website: www.pleiadians.com)

Barbara Marciniak is an internationally acclaimed trance channel, inspirational speaker, and best-selling author. The Pleiadians are a collective of multidimensional spirit beings from the Pleiades star system, and have been speaking through Barbara Marciniak since May of 1988. The Pleiadians are here to assist humanity with the process of spiritual transformation in the years leading up to December 2012. Their distinctive style blends wit and wisdom, common sense, and cosmic knowledge in teachings that encourage expansive thinking and personal empowerment, and which have been compared to native shamanism.
I am so excited to see her, finally.

If you like fun , cool shoes--like Fluevog, Camper, Faryl Robin, Bronx, Puma and PF Flyers to name a few-- (and clothes and bags and jewelry, etc) you have to check it out. Her website has great pictures of her selections, but you have to go into her store to get the whole picture. The readers of the Independent just voted her store Best Kick-Ass Shoes in the Triangle.

Razed in Black, More Man Than Machine, Ego Likeness...Did that get your attention?

2004-10-13T13:02:50Z

The Eccentrik Festival is a one-day event featuring musicians, DJs, artists, and vendors. The first annual Eccentrik will be held on Saturday, October 23rd in Raleigh, North Carolina at the Brewery and the Cantina.

Spread over these two neighboring venues on Hillsborough Street, the Eccentrik Festival will feature a full day of live music in the Brewery and vendors, artwork, and DJs in the Cantina, with poi (fire-spinning) in the driveway between the two. A burlesque troupe will be featured during one of the DJ sets.

Razed In Black will headline the festival, bringing their blend of hard industrial, coldwave, futurepop and metal to North Carolina for the second time ever.

More Machine Than Man is a multimedia fetish/cyber-goth project featuring performance art as well as guitar-driven industrial dance music.

Opening the live music aspect of the festival will be Raleigh-based electronic duo RJE, an ongoing side project from members of Nomad Project A.V. and enc0der.

Ego Likeness is a female-fronted band out of Baltimore, Maryland that draws comparisons to such diverse groups as Berlin, Concrete Blonde, and Collide.

RED ALL OVER is a female-fronted Charlotte band whose melodic, danceable songs are reminiscent of late-’80s alternative music with a dose of modern European electro-pop.

Oddstar is a self-described "electrogothicspacerock" band from Asheville, North Carolina with an ethereal undercurrent beneath elements of early electronic and darkwave styles. This is a band who could have been at home on the Projekt label, especially during its early days.

Haitian Hate Gods, a self-described industrial funk band out of North Carolina, features female vocals. The band’s sound blends driving industrial floor-stompers and soulful slow numbers.

Clockwerk fuses elements of both dark ambient noise and aggressive industrial experimentalism. The Winston-Salem, North Carolina-based trio are inspired by bands such as Clock DVA, Front 242, and Skinny Puppy.

Raleigh’s own Threshold 6 is a dark electronic band whose sound ranges from fast-paced and danceable to slinky and seductive.

The DJ lineup includes New York City’s DJ Chad Collins as well as a roster of Carolinas DJs that includes DJ Anarathoth, Count Zackula & DJ Konstruct, DJ Kalyx, DJ Kantrip, DJ Nguinn, DJ Scarab, DJ Nareau, DJ Telal, and DJ Zero Anjel.

Items for sale at the vendor tables will include gothic house wares, clothing and accessories, mehendi tattoos, and custom-made fangs.

The Clarion State Capitol is the official hotel of Eccentrik. Rooms are $63 per night; ask for the Eccentrik block of rooms.
