WEEKLY EVENT

Mindfulness Talk with Shanna Gillette

Shanna is a certified yoga teacher, ordained metaphysical counselor and empath. Her journey began as a small child inadvertently discovering deep meditation as an escape from abuse. Having always had an interest in the unseen and unexplained, she began having out of body experiences before learning to speak.  Eventually she received a regents scholarship to ASU for religious studies. A series of intense life changing experiences including a serious car accident brought her to the first of several “awakenings,” beginning most notably in 2005. She now helps people through the shift in consciousness we are currently experiencing, assisting them along the path toward self-forgiveness and self-love – the greatest journey of all.  

Truly exemplifying her favorite quote from Kahlil Gibran, “The deeper that sorrow carves into your being, the more joy you can contain,’ she adds, “The journey to wellness is a constantly evolving process where we learn to nurture body and mind beginning with the heart; To truly understand that the most important step to long-lasting good health and harmony isn’t necessarily about sweating our way to perfect abs or contorting our bodies into painful positions. It starts within. It’s about self-acceptance, self-forgiveness, and self-love. It’s about learning to accept and respect ourselves wherever we may be. Through the physicality of yoga, we tune into a deeper more expansive space beyond the trivial day to day. We learn that it’s ok to nurture ourselves and to ALLOW our spirits to be happy.”  

Shanna received her yoga teacher’s certification at Bryan Kest’s world renowned studio in Santa Monica, CA. She attended Arizona State University for Religious Studies, and is currently studying at the University of Metaphysics Sedona. She is available for private yoga and counseling sessions and can be found at:

Bullets & Belles
Nov 11 @ 8:00 pm

Bullets & Belles is Neo Doo Wop Folk. Think Amy Winehouse and Dion & The Belmonts, but also Simon & Garfunkel and Taj Mahal. Their performance effortlessly glides from hard hitting blues, to soulful doo-wop, to traces of country folk. Their sublime three-part vocal harmonies and deeply-felt poetic lyrics, paired with solid rhythms and well thought out vocal arrangements seamlessly bend through the rules of genre while always leaving the audience wanting (and often whistling…)

 

This event is free and open to the public.

Chris, Petro and The Blowfish Project
Nov 18 @ 8:00 pm

 
Ukrainian-Canadian violinist Petro Krysa feels equally at home playing a concerto in a concert hall or rocking out with a funk band in a nightclub. In addition to being a violinist in the Vancouver Opera Orchestra in Vancouver, BC and the Pacific Northwest Ballet Orchestra in Seattle, he regularly performs with several Seattle bands such as Mts. & Tunnels, Cracker Factory, Abney Park, Every Breath-Tribute to Sting and The Police and others. Mr. Krysa performed in major concert halls of North America, Europe and Asia as well as at classical and jazz festivals nationally and abroad. Petro performs on a rare 300 year old Italian violin made by Alessandro Mezzadri and also a five string electric violin. Most recently he picked up a trumpet and singing as well. Petro divides his busy professional and family schedule between Vancouver, Seattle, Toronto and Lisbon.
 
With a passion for performance and music of all genres Chris Poage has crafted his own brand of artistry and joy.  Chris is the founder and singer for Seattle groups: Panda Conspiracy and Mts. & Tunnels. He also writes songs for various collaborative projects. As a side man he has worked with Melissa Etheridge, Nneka, Jason Webley, Oliver Mutugutzi, Blake Lewis, Publish the Quest, YAR and more!
 
Chris and Petro met in the spring of 2015 during a jam session at one of Seattles hottest live music venues – Seamonster Lounge. There was immediate chemistry that was felt and shortly after Chris invited Petro to sit in with one of his bands Mts & Tunnels. The relationship continued and in the summer of 2016 after several successful shows together and as members of other bands, Petro and Chris decided to go on the road as an electro-acoustic duo. It is during that time that “electro-acoustic-groove-folk” style was invented and “Chris, Petro and The Blowfish Project” was born. Classically trained violinist Petro and Chris, the veteran of Seattle’s rock music scene, fuse together American and Ukrainian folk, Western Classical traditions with a funky, electronic grove. Both Petro and Chris pay multiple instruments and sing.
 
This event is free and open to the public.
