WORKSHOPS and SPRING

On the last day before changing our clocks I reflect on all that has happened over the last number of months. Mac MacKenzie, our musician from The Peace Project, is working as a solo artist and creating beautiful sounds for us to engage in again, children are in the final stretch of school, last summer's training has truly changed my life and the lives around me and the sun shines, it seems, no matter how cold it gets!
There is something about this time of year where I just want to shake off the winter and invite a sense of 'fresh and new' into my home and my daily routines, and most especially into my perspective on the ways are and how amazing they could be. It's time to rejunvinate that perhaps.

We are opening up our schedules to offer more private and group dance/movement workshops over the coming months. Please contact Deirdre at ru_quenched@shaw.ca for details. Try something new this Spring, bring a friend, bring your child, come on your own to explore and discover in a fun, safe, encouraging and beautifully soundscaped space.

Warmly,
D

Summer of Training and Sunshine Closes and A New Season Begins...

Hello all!
The Spring workshops proved interesting. They began with a freak blizzard and ended with beautiful children and playful adults. As much as we prepare there are still things that happen that can seem stressful, emotional, challenging or at the very least, unplanned. How we handle those situations or relationships makes all the difference.

I have been away this summer for some intensive training that I am incorporating into the private workshops Quenched Pure Performance provides.

In short, the training is a unique applied kinesiology modality that defuses our stress and allows us greater capacity to make healthy, centred choices. Body, mind, and spirit all working together means we move better personally, professionally, inter personally, relationally and in our artistry. The power and success from this work is amazing and it is customised to your needs. I have personally benefited from it and I look forward to integrating it into the work we continue to do together!

First 3 Private (45 - 60 minute) session package (Movement or New Modality): 270$
Each Private Session after that: 95$

First 3 Private Integrated (90+ minute) session package (incl. Movement component): 390$
Each Integrated Session after that: 140$

Contact Deirdre Young, 403.993.8049, to lessen your stress, gain greater awareness and move more freely. Now booking sessions for mid-September. Group Sessions and workshops are also available; please inquire.

Warmly,

WORKSHOPS ARE COMING!

Hi everyone!
Thanks for stopping in.
We are preparing our workshop schedule based on our year and half long project work - The Peace Project. The gala debut was last November and we will open the process to the public in workshop format a few times this Spring. Upcoming is our Fall production, likely the last run of The (Urban) Peace Project. If you want to be involved we are collecting friends, financial supporters, technical assistance and performers. Main rehearsals will begin in August.
More info to follow.

Until then, may every step be peace.

Deirdre

Please click on the link to The Peace Project blog spot for current details and info on Quenched Pure Performance's current work.
We will be back here posting once our Gala Performances (Nov 1-3) are complete and we are offering workshops and finding innovative ways to deepen this work. We want to continue to nurture, encourage and bring awareness to peace within and globally.

Thanks for your support!

TECH SUPPORT STILL NEEDED!

So I wouldn't go as far as to say we are desperate...but we're close. As October nears, we are gathering set, props, ideas, innovations, preparations and public rehearsal formats. We still need 2 more tech-geared people to make this production really seamless and all that it can be.

Light up my life and bring music to my ears!

Contact Deirdre @ 993.8049 or ru_quenched@shaw.ca to be part of the crew to make 'peace' ;-)

PEACE PROJECT

This is a one woman and musician show. Tech support is essential. Email me asap if you or someone you know can help!

We have a lot to get done for our rehearsal performances and for our performance at Motel in the EPCOR Centre for Performing Arts. Don't miss out on the inner creative workings of this project.


Please support this project with your thoughts, prayers, meditations and give peace room on your path with others and within yourself.

Project Reflections

I don't fit a definition of 'dancer' I
once had.
Yet I have ideas and experiences that are
expressed best with the body...my body; these are moments that only
movement serves well enough.

I yearn to express and where a dancer
stands is sacred ground.

Move with me through this journey or be
moved as it is revealed to you.

No definitions here. Quiet to the
intellect; boldness from the heart; music to the soul; movement to the
feet.

...and along this path I
travel...
