Pole Dancing

Join us for a classic summer night of swing dancing at the beautiful Spanish Ballroom at Glen Echo Park! On May 30, the world-famous Glenn Miller Orchestra brings live big band music to one of the most iconic dance venues in the DMV. Expect an evening full of swing, jazz, dancing, and vintage energy. No partner needed. No experience required. Whether you’re an experienced swing dancer or just curious to try something new, this is a great event for beginners and social dancers alike. The Spanish Ballroom has a large wooden dance floor, plenty of room to dance, and a uniquely nostalgic atmosphere that was made for big band music. Think less “formal ballroom competition” and more “joyfully attempting swing moves while a legendary big band plays live.” We’ll plan to meet near the Praline Cafe (inside the venue) before the dance so people can connect beforehand. What to expect: • Live music from the Glenn Miller Orchestra • Swing dancing and social dancing • Friendly, welcoming atmosphere • Beginner-friendly crowd • One of the most beautiful dance halls in the area Important: This Meetup is free to join, but the venue charges admission for the dance. It’s $35 at the door or you can preregister in advance and save money at [Gottaswing.com](https://gottaswing.com/events/5-30-26-spanish-ballroom/) . ($25 presale) Wear comfortable shoes, bring water, and get ready for a fun night out. Date: Saturday, May 30 Location: Spanish Ballroom at Glen Echo Park, Maryland

Capoeira (capo-way-ra) is an Afro-Brazilian martial art that is unlike any other martial art. Capoeira incorporates flowing movements with kicks, dodges, and some acrobatics. It is often mistaken for a dance for those reasons. Since it’s origins in the 17th century, it has evolved from a secret fighting practice into an art emphasizing self-expression and community celebration. It is great for the body and mind! In addition to gaining strength and flexibility in class, students learn about Brazilian culture, history, and language (Portuguese). On November 26, 2014 capoeira was granted a special protected status as "intangible cultural heritage” by UNESCO. No need to have a Capoeira background to join this class, just an open mind to try out a new way to move! Beginners welcome. **Please reserve your spot at www.piesfitnessyoga.com**. The session is offered InStudio only. **Sign up for sessions must be made at least 2 hours prior to class.** The address is 1322 Prince St. Alexandria, VA 22314.

Join us as we get together to see Paul Rudd in the latest comedy-drama-musical from John Carney, POWER BALLAD! The film follows a washed-up wedding singer, a fading boy band singer and a stolen hit song. Here’s a description, trailer and plan for this event: DESCRIPTION: Rick, a washed-up wedding singer, and Danny, a fading boy band star, bond over music and a late-night jam session. When Danny turns Rick's song into a hit, Rick sets out to reclaim the recognition he believes he deserves. Power Ballad is written/directed by John Carney, the master of the modern musical and creative mind behind Once, Begin Again and Sing Street! It stars Paul Rudd, Nick Jonas, Peter McDonald, Marcella Plunkett, Havana Rose Liu and Jack Reynor. BUZZ & ACCLAIM: The film premiered to rave reviews at this year’s Dublin International Film Festival where critics call it “a sure-fired crowd-pleaser” that “just might be the feel-good hit of the year!” Others say, “Paul Rudd delivers a career-best performance in this charmer” that’s both “hilarious and deeply moving." The film continues John Carney’s “long run of success with yet another charmer” and “a sharp, hopeful crowd-pleaser that strikes the right notes!” SUMMER OF ICE CREAM, VOL 2: SHAKE NO. 8! Ranked the #1 Ice Cream Shop in Columbus, this is a perfect early stop on our Summer of Ice Cream!
