Sunday Connection: Class & Potluck
Full event details: [https://www.annkite.com/sundays](https://www.annkite.com/sundays)
Join our Practice 11-1pm, bring a dish to share and stay if you can for the potluck after!
The 5Rhythmsยฎ of Flowing, Staccato, Chaos, Lyrical, and Stillness form โThe Waveโ, a simple movement meditation practice that encourages us to find our own movement into presence and embodiment, discovering ourselves at our most fluid and creative level. The Rhythms are different ways of moving that are related to different ways of being in the world. As we practice them, we bring more of ourselves โbody, heart, mind & soul- into movement, on the dance floor & out in the world. There are no steps to learn and it can be enjoyed by anyone, regardless of age, fitness, ability, or experience.
Our dance is an individual and collective experience. How much you choose to interact with other dancers is up to you. We ask only that you come with a heartful respect for yourself and every other person on the floor. The 5Rhythms teacher is here to help take you deeper into the experience, when youโre ready.
There are no steps to learn. 5Rhythms can be practiced by anyone regardless of age, fitness, ability, or experience. For more information about what to expect in your first 5Rhythms class, see https://www.annkite.com/about.

Join Elder Millennials Callie Pigeon and Delilah Dentata for a burlesque and variety tribute to the Y2K era!
Did you shamelessly pirate music on Napster? Are you glad wide-legged jeans are making a comeback? Do you miss cryptically expressing your emotions in your AIM away message? Did you maintain a healthy sense of competition between your friends through Myspaceโs Top 8? And, finally: Bath and Body Worksโ Cucumber Melon or Love Spell?
Rub on some body glitter, feed your Tamagotchi, grab your Motorola Razr, and join us at this burlesque and variety celebration of Y2K music, culture, and - for better or worse - fashion.
Y2K-era outfits ABSOLUTELY ENCOURAGED. Deliaโs, JNCO, Hot Topic, PacSunโฆ whatever vibes speak to you.

ยท How to Talk to Girls at Parties ยท by John Cameron Mitchell @ย Duncanย Library
Our second Oddball Adventure follows a teenage boyโs unexpected experience over the course of two days in the London borough of Croydon. Heโs a fan of punk music, and after a good old head-banging session at a local club, he and his two buddies wander around until they happen upon a house where a party is in progress. They knock, and to their surprise theyโre invited inside where strange characters are dancing to strange music. Despite the weird atmosphere, the protagonist is attracted to a girl whoโs never heard of punk rock and wants to learn about it. The pair run off into the night for an escapade of cosmic proportions.

Contra dance with Big Scioty on Feb. 7 - First Congregational Church
**Caller: Dan Kappus**
**Band: Trillium**
**Big Scioty Contra Dance**
**temporarily returning to our long ago location for Jan-March - First Congregational Church, 444 E. Broad St., Columbus 43215**
WHAT IS CONTRA DANCING? Picture the Grand Ball scenes like youโve seen in period films such as โPride and Prejudiceโ, where the dancers are lined up in long lines, across from each other. Thatโs English Country Dancing, the predecessor of contra dancing. Now, add moves like โswing your partnerโ and โdo-si-do,โ like youโve seen in square dancing. Set it to fabulous, high energy, live music with fiddles, guitars, percussion and more, alรก โRiverdance.โ Finally, set the whole scene down in the middle of Woodstock, with a hip, groovy atmosphere, a bit of tie-dye, and hints of counter-culture attitude. THATโs Contra Dancing!
Wear cool and comfortable clothes (you will get warm) and clean shoes that won't mark up our nice wood floor.
Be sure to come for the beginner's lesson from 7:30 - 8:00, followed by dancing 8:00 - 10:30. All dances are taught; we will help you learn! Beginners always welcome, no need to bring a partner.
Cost is $10.00 adults, $5.00 ages 12-26. Under 12 free. Free parking in church lot.
