Join Jesse Johnson on this and every Monday this beautiful and bountiful SPRING for Dancing With Gravity! Come to dance from your heart, connect to your inspiration and expand your physical and emotional freedom to move!

Since this is the first Monday of June, we will again have Live Music featuring the improvisational sensitivities of the incredible Ben Harris.

Each class will support your comfort, transformation and ecstasy as you become more alive in your body. Explore and expand your body’s deep intelligence through moving meditations, massage, weight sharing, partner and group exercises. Play and have fun as you find flexibility, grace and self-expression in your own body.
:::All levels of experience welcome in every session:::

You will:
- dance and move with more freedom, comfort, flexibility, ease and expressiveness in all contexts including “jamming” with a group
- develop concrete improvisation skills for dancing with a partner, including contact improvisation
- deepen listening and collaboration skills
- have fun while releasing inhibitions
- cultivate and nurture a dance practice that you can take with you anywhere

Long time dancer and teacher of contact improvisation, Jesse is delighted to have the opportunity to dive deeply into playful, co-creative, improvisational art making. Also a mediation and math teacher, Jesse is a master educator and creates an amazing container for transformation.

7 Reasons why becoming a member of Beat365 rocks.

As you already might know I go by the alias Undakova (Undercover) and I am beat maker, DJ and MC here in NYC. I have been producing hip hop beats since the 90s and have produced my own hip hop instrumentals for my album created here in New York City. I often get asked by R & B artist and MCs "Can you produce some beats for my album?" One day the question popped up in my head "Where does an artist find great sounding Hip hop, r&b and rap beats that sound so good you play them in your car for fun as well as record song after song with them?" If an artist doesn't have a friend or business partner who is a producer or know how to/ want to produce beats on there own spare time (which can take a lot of time and money) where does he/she find a complete collection of hip hop beats? Well the answer is simple. . . . To find Hip hop, r&b and rap beats that sound so good you play them in your car for fun as well as record song after song with them go to Beats365
