HAVE YOU HEARD ABOUT
NORTH COAST ADVENTURE CENTERS?
They're working on "connecting the north coast community, one adventure at a time."
They have things like: Segway Tours (my new favorite thing ever!!!) Rock Climbing, Kayaking, Ropes Courses, Rafting, Mountain Biking &
Canopy Tours(which Shoshanna's Adam leads... you climb trees in the Community Forest to platforms and zip line between them! Wow. See below...) If you have friends or family coming to visit or you just need something really special to do (once you're done dancing), check it out!
Call them at 800-808-2836 or click right here

Greetings!
Wow - It's August already! I'm just getting ready to head off to the Mendocino Middle Eastern Music & Dance Camp. I wish we had more local people going this time... I hope y'all plan to go next year... it's an incredible experience and you learn SO much from all the LIVE MUSIC. I'm excited about starting fall classes soon and the upcoming REDWOOD COAST BELLY DANCE FESTIVAL. This is the 5th annual festival, and I'm so delighted to have one of my VERY favorite dancers, Dalia Carella from New York, come to join us. This is VERY amazing, and I hope you all take advantage of the amazingly low workshop rates until the end of August. Act now! I'm also looking forward to a dazzling array of offerings from our splendid vendors and lots of great dancing by talented performers from across the region. Check out the festival website... don't miss out! :-) Also... the next Fairy Day at the Farmer's Market is Sept 5th. See below! Happy dancing, Shoshanna
