Keep Inspired! Belly Dance/Modern Fusion Series with Sara. Saturdays January 14 - February 18th 11 a.m. - 12:15 p.m.

Melina proudly presents a Moody Street Circus Special Fusion Dance Feature:

"Keep Inspired!" Belly Dance Fusion Series with Sara Rodrigues Cabral.

Featuring Theatrical Belly Dance combinations InFused with Modern Dance

Saturdays January 14th - February 18th 2012 from 11 a.m. - 12:15 p.m. Pre-registration required - the goal is to perform one or more of the choreographies we will work on during this 6 week session at the Moody Street Circus student recital showcase on Saturday February 18th at 7 p.m.!

PLEASE NOTE THERE WILL BE NO DROP INS PERMITTED, AND MELINA'S CLASS CARD DOES NOT APPLY TO THIS SERIES. PRE-REGISTRATION FOR FULL SESSION IS OBLIGATORY TO GIVE THIS SERIES THE PROFESSIONAL DANCE COMPANY FEEL AND COMMITMENT THAT MAKES IT SO SPECIAL!

Featuring:

Theatrical & Emotive Combinations

Expressive Music Interpretation

Possible Performance Future

A Fabulous Time!

Using belly dance movements infused with modern dance technique, this class series will explore several combos to different songs.

Sara will break it all down for you in a warm and supportive class atmosphere. The idea of this series is to keep "inspired" in both its literal sense (from the latin "inspirare" -- to breathe deeply, and its figurative sense -- to instill ever renewing pleasure for dance in your heart through choreographic and emotional expression.)

Keep Inspired Series Goals:

-to truly find what keeps us inspired, even when we don't feel our best...

-the idea is that students will not be students but performers, participating in a professional dance company collective for 6 weeks.

-everyone takes part -- it is a collaboration -- dancers interact and create the choreographies together (under Sara's guidance of course) -- everyone works together to stay engaged in the process and inspired.

Sara Rodrigues Cabral
Azorean-born Sara has lived a life of dance and theater arts since childhood. She has inspired audiences of all ages with her style, soulful presence, expert dance technique and personal warmth. Back on her Island, Sara was a principal dancer for Ballet Teatro Paz, a professional Ballet and Modern Dance company. She also acted, danced and sang on film in different projects.After moving to the U.S. over ten years ago, Sara was drawn to the Art of Belly Dance through her great friend and mentor, Melina of Daughters of Rhea, and has since become an accomplished professional. Sara is a caring teacher and a giving performer as well as a Pilates instructor certified by The Boston BodyWorks Studio with Kathy Van Patten.

Sara Cabral on Belly Dancing
"My true inspiration to Dance is Music. When I listen to certain songs my whole being wakes up and focuses. My mind follows my body and creates a story. It becomes clear to me that there is a message, a purpose and a need for movement. And my biggest Love is to create those stories, to sculpt new movements and mix them up with the old ones, to create my own expression. My own Fusion. I like to mix things my way. I believe that technique is key as far as reaching a level in which people will follow and believe your story. Always continue to grow and learn and better your moves and your control. It's been a beautiful journey for me. I am proud to say I have Dance, Music and at times singing and theatre in my life. Most of all I am always excited about what I am going to do next."

This class is for tweens and teens who want to strengthen their bodies and learn beautiful skills in the circus arts both in the air and on the ground. This class is taught by Moody Street Circus founders Sacha and Melinda Pavlata. Pre-registration for full session required.

2012 Wintersession runs Saturdays from 2:30 - 4 p.m. from January 14 - April 14, with NO CLASSES on February 25 (Winterbreak) or March 10 (canceled due to special event in studio).

Absolute beginners welcome, and students who have skills will gain new ones and be coached on graceful execution of - and transition between - their tricks. This hour-and-a-half-long class is appropriate for kids aged 10 - 16 who want to learn and hone skills on aerial circus equipment such as lyra, static trapeze, cloud swing, aerial fabric and Spanish web.

We start class with a warm-up and assisted tumbling and end with crucial core conditioning. On breaks from practicing aerial tricks and graceful transitions students can walk the low wire, balance on the rolla bolla, walk on the rolling globe, practice juggling skills, or jump on the trampoline.

**All students MUST pre-register for this Saturday afternoon class. Drop-ins will be allowed if there is room and with prior permission from Melinda (call 781 209 0950) at a rate of $27 per class per student.

2012 Thursday After-School Circus Arts Program Wintersession - January 12 - April 12 (NO CLASSES WEEK OF FEBRUARY 20)

Calling all kids aged 7 - 12! Run away with the circus afterschool without actually having to leave home. Circus stars Sacha and Melinda Pavlata are hosting after-school programs in their Waltham, MA headquarters, Moody Street Circus. This wintersession series will run Thursdays January 12th - April 12th at a cost of $340 per child. Please note that there are NO CLASSES the week of February 20th.

Please call or email Melinda (melinda@cirquepassion.com) at Moody Street Circus at 781 209 0950 with questions, to check if there is room in the session and/or to register and reserve a spot for your child.

Students in our Moody Street Circus Afterschool Program will practice tumbling, pyramid formation, rola bola, rolling globe, tightrope walking, trampoline, juggling skills and mini trampoline. They will also learn the basics in circus aerial arts including cloud swing, static trapeze, rings, web, lyra and silks.

Attire: Moody Street Circus is a gum-free, street-shoe free zone, even for parents who are dropping off and picking up. Parents and caregivers are always welcome to stay and watch the action on our comfy studio futons. Camp is conducted barefoot, but indoor-use only sneakers and/or acrobatic shoes are suggested for work on unicycle and low wire. Long hair must be worn pulled back in a pony-tail or in braids. We go upside-down on equipment and always follow the SAFETY FIRST! Rule, so: Leotards and shorts or leggings for girls, shorts and shirts that can be well-tucked in for boys. Kids should not be worried about tucking in their shirts when they are upside down, it is very distracting and dangerous when you are learning new tricks.

*Waiver forms must be completed for each camper or participation in camp will not be allowed. We will send you a waiver form after you have registered, or you can request one prior by emailing meinda@cirquepassion.com.

If you have any additional questions, please call Melinda at Moody Street Circus : 781 209 0950.

Reviews of Moody Street Circus:

Philippe Petit, renowned funambulist most recently featured in Man on Wire, writes of Sacha Pavlata, Moody Street Circus Founder:

"I met Alexandre Pavlata in 1972 at the Cirque d'Hiver of Paris. He was helping some kids, backstage, to perfect their somersaults. I remember the gentle yet strong way he was directing their progresses, there was a lot of joy, but the results were prompt.

As I watch Sacha over the years, becoming slowly the "best circus teacher" (his well-earned reputation today), I realized that a very special chemistry was the secret of his so unique ability: Sacha could offer in the classes he gave, the flavor of European Circus Tradition. He was born and raised in a traveling circus family, therefore was quickly acquainted with the constant training, the tough discipline, the respect for other artists, and the ability to understand rigging and to perform all aspects of circus profession.

But Sacha had to offer, blended to this heritage, the benefits of his own life and personality: he has traveled all over the world, therefore mastering several languages, he had coached numerous pupils of diverse ways of life, nationalities, age, goals and talents, had become a father, and had developed a sparkling intelligence at introducing the unfamiliar to a demanding craft, with surprising results.

It is the blending of the deeply traditional world of European circuses, with a modern international expertise that made the instruction of Master Teacher Pavlata so effective, and so rich, so outstanding."

"I love this place; I want to live here! I could sleep on the trapeze!!!" (Birthday girl Stella Hu)

"This was the most exciting party my daughter has ever attended!" (Wellesley Mom)

"My 5th grade daughter has been taking a circus class at Moody Street Circus and she loves it! Her favorite activities are the silks and the lyra. It gives her such a sense of freedom and accomplishment! I see it every time she comes back from class. Thank you Melinda and Sacha for encouraging the students to push their limits in a safe, fun environment!" --

Level 3 Daughters of Rhea Belly Dance Classes with Melina Wednesdays 8-9 p.m.

** ALWAYS CHECK THE LIVE GOOGLE CALENDAR AT WWW.MOODYSTREETCIRCUS.COM TO MAKE SURE THE CLASS YOU ARE PLANNING ON COMING TO HAS NOT BEEN CANCELED OR THE STUDIO IS NOT CLOSED.

The studio is closed for the month of August 2011. Classes resume in full September 7th, 2011.

** YOU DO NOT NEED TO SELECT DATE TO ATTEND THIS CLASS, JUST COME WHEN YOU CAN!!

** YOU DO NOT NEED TO ATTEND EVERY CLASS, YOU CAN COME AND TRY A CLASS ANY TIME!

** YOU DO NOT NEED TO PAY HERE, YOU CAN PAY (BY CASH OR CHECK ONLY!!!) AT THE DOOR BEFORE CLASS

This turbo-charged level III class is designed for students who have taken at least 3 beginners sessions - either level I or level II - with Melina and wish to challenge themselves further with the understanding that a basic mastery of proper belly dance technique is expected. We will practice finger cymbals with footwork, drill technique and build on the Daughters of Rhea belly dance repertoire. We will also review and practice the fundamentals of belly dance, working with great music and learning Melina's Greco-Turkish gypsy-fusion style combinations. This class is also recommended for students who have studied at an intermediate/advanced level with other belly dance teachers but have not yet been exposed to Melina's style and technique. Bring your zills to class or borrow or purchase them from Melina. Class is conducted barefoot -- wear comfortable clothes you can dance and sweat in. You are welcome to attend class barefoot or wear nonskid socks or ballet slippers if you wish. Please don't wear dance shoes with heels as these are not suitable for Melina's energetic style of belly dance. You can wear coin hipscarves in class if you wish.

Pay the drop-in rate of $20 per class, payable at the door, or purchase a 10 class punch card either here or in class for $150. The card is good for any of Melina's regular group belly dance classes and lasts a year from purchase.
