Salt Lake Capoeira
Capoeira began over 500 years ago when the Africans who were taken to Brazil and enslaved trained to fight while disguising it as a dance. Today, Mestre Jamaika teaches kids through adults of all levels, all aspects of Capoeira: strength, flexibility, movement, endurance, coordination, vocal and instrumental skills, cultural awareness, confidence, teamwork, and community. In this authentic Capoeira class, we seek to improve our physical and mental health as we work together to strengthen our community. We invite you to try a Capoeira class and see how your life can be transformed with Capoeira lessons and new friends.

Metaphysical Pole Dance Classes
Enjoy the freedom to explore your own capacity and potential in this unique Pole Dance Choreography class that brings in the spiritual, mental, emotional, and physical.

To wrap up the class, we'll stretch out the body before finishing up with some breathwork. All my classes include a metaphysical twist, so expect some woo woo stuff to help you play with moving and releasing emotional energy trapped within your body! Bring: An open mind, a water bottle, a pair of tight-fitting shorts/sports bra and baggy layers (sweat pants and socks) to keep up body temperature during warm-up and cool-downs.

As a fine art humorist, it is my joy and passion to create the most compelling imagery and infuse it with my humor. I found that doing pretty paintings left me empty. And doing cartoons was very unsatisfying, artistically. Starting out, I used my creativity in advertising to sell someone else’s products. OK, I won a Clio, the Oscar of advertising. Later, I became a freelance humorous illustrator, but even after creating for IBM & Qantas, it was still my creativity doing the same thing. And after exhibiting at 400+ art festivals and receiving numerous awards plus owning 2 wonderful humor galleries in CA., I needed to do work that filled me up with satisfaction. And so, the thing that gives me the most joy is creating humorous dog (cat) commissions for you, who loves your dog, sooooo much. The appreciation I receive is overwhelming.
I Want to Paint Your Dog (or Cat)
Celebrate your beloved dog (cat, parrot) with a unique and humorous painting that captures that special connection you share with them.
