SUMMARY:Sonic Immersion
DESCRIPTION:Come experience a multi-instrumental Sound Bath with composer-performer Sasha Bogdanowitsch. This full body listening experience will draw from Sasha’s extensive instrument collection of original and global winds\, strings and percussion and his background of intensive musical studies of the world’s musics from countries such as India\, Indonesia\, Europe\, the Middle East and the Americas. Sasha will couple this with his unique vocals and electronics to create an ever evolving sonic tapestry that will immerse the listener in resonance and overtones; aiding all in their own sonic journey\, relaxation\, stress reduction and/ or meditation. \n\n\n\nParticipants will be free to recline (savasana pose)\, sit or stand as needed. Some yoga mats and blankets will be available but please bring whatever materials you need to feel warm and relaxed. \n\n\n\nThe event will last 60 minutes. \n\n\n\nCome just for the Sonic Immersion or come early for Shake with Niki\, and stay for both. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n8

SUMMARY:Somatic Movement Education Program - Muscles Module
DESCRIPTION:MUSCLES  10/09 – 10/21/25 (days off 10/13 & 10/17)Arrivals\, orientation and welcome dinner 10/09 – Morning Departures 10/21/25 (day off if you’re staying for Professional Issues and SME Competency) \n\n\n\nThe muscles establish a tensile three-dimensional grid for the balanced support and movement of the skeletal structure by providing the elastic forces that move the bones through space. They provide the dynamic contents of the outer envelope of flesh encompassing the skeletal structure. Through this system we embody our vitality\, express our power\, and engage in the dialogue of resistance and resolution.

SUMMARY:Be the Change: Improvising Towards Justice
DESCRIPTION:This is a space to practice liberation not just as an idea\, but as a felt experience—starting in the body\, moving through community\, and rippling outward into change. \n\n\n\nStep into a sanctuary of embodied practice where justice begins in the body. Rooted in the concept of innervism—inner work as a foundation for outer change—we’ll explore how movement can nourish our spirits\, deepen connection\, and seed the future we long for. \n\n\n\nThrough contact improvisation\, authentic movement\, and nature-based practices\, we’ll resource our hearts\, cultivate resilience\, and vision new possibilities. Together\, we’ll practice liberation as a living\, breathing act—starting from within.

SUMMARY:Bread & Puppet Fall Circus Tour
DESCRIPTION:The Bread & Puppet Theater presents \n\nOur Domestic Resurrection Revolution in Progress Circus \n\nSunday\, September 21\, starting at 3 PM \nLadles and Jellyspoons! The one and only Bread & Puppet Circus is back with Anti-Empire Art that acknowledges our beloved Mother Dirt\, who makes us and unmakes us\, and who presents urgently needed domestic resurrection services for the victims of this latest genocide. We are joined by Palestinian cranes on their way to Washington to replace the excrement in the White House with organic bird droppings\, green frogs who teach the art of hopping over seemingly insurmountable problems\, and gaggles of kindergarten butterflies who frolic to their hearts’ desire. Join us for a serious and silly circus: Our Domestic Resurrection Revolution In Progress! \nTickets: $20\, no one turned away from lack of funds \nBuy Tickets Here: Bread & Puppet on Tour – Bread & Puppet Theater \n\nFAQ\nHow long is the show? About an hour. \n  \nIs the show ok for kids? While there is nothing inappropriate for children in our shows\, we do speak on heavy topics. We generally tell parents that if they would allow their children to read a newspaper\, the show will be fine for them. \n  \nWill there be bread and aioli? Yes\, bread with optional garlic aioli. It’s vegan.  \n  \nCan I be in the show? At some places we are offering a workshop before the show to work folks into the show\, but otherwise\, the show is not built for volunteer performers. \n  \nWill the show be the same as what I saw in Vermont? Or last year? Or back in the 70’s? While the structure of the show is always the same (flags\, many short acts\, garbage men and washer women\, paper mache animals\, a brass band\, etc)\, the show is constantly evolving in response to the moment. Some of the puppets were made this year\, some were made decades ago. \n  \nYou say “No one turned away for lack of funds” but do you mean it? Yes. If you need financial assistance with a ticket\, please email breadandpuppetreservations@gmail.com and let us know which show (including where) you are looking to attend. \nAdmission by donation upon arrival for kids 6 and under. \n  \nWhere can I learn more about B&P? https://breadandpuppet.org/about-bread-and-puppet \n  \n  \n \nBREAD AND PUPPET THEATER \nThe Bread and Puppet Theater is an internationally celebrated company that champions a visually rich\, street-theater brand of performance art filled with music\, dance and slapstick. Believing that theater is a basic necessity like bread\, the company frequently brings its work to the streets for those who may not otherwise go to the theater. Its shows are political and spectacular\, with puppets often on stilts\, wearing huge masks with expressive faces\, singing\, dancing and playing music.  \nBread and Puppet is recognized throughout the world and has won distinction at international theater festivals in Italy\, Poland\, Colombia\, and Yugoslavia\, beginning with their break-out performances at the 1968 Nancy Festival in France. Notable awards include the Erasmus Prize of Amsterdam\, 4 Obies\, the Puppeteers of America’s President Award\, and the Vermont Governor’s Award.  \nFounded in 1963 by Peter Schumann on New York City’s Lower East Side\, the theater has been based in the North East Kingdom of Vermont since the early 1970s and is one of the oldest\, nonprofit\, self-supporting theatrical companies in the country. \nhttps://breadandpuppet.org/  \n\n

SUMMARY:Sonic Immersion with Timothy Hill
DESCRIPTION:This sonic immersion will be a soulful\, intimate journey with our most primal and organic musical instrument\, the human voice. As a pioneer in the art of harmonic singing (aka: overtone\, or throat\, singing) and a lifelong student of Hindustani vocal music (raga) as well as being a composer in his own right\, Timothy has gone deeply into the interior frontiers of expression. He will accompany himself on tanpura\, acoustic guitar\, and lyre. To conclude\, Timothy will offer a song for two to bring our expansive meditative state into a renewed\, grounded awareness.

SUMMARY:The Body as Threshold: A Practice of Return and Departure
DESCRIPTION:This workshop examines the body as a threshold—a space where what is known meets what is waiting to emerge. \n\n\n\nWe start by returning home—to breath\, sensation\, and presence—before moving toward movement and creative discovery. Through guided improvisation\, structured frameworks\, and attentive presence\, we explore how form and constraint can unlock freedom\, expression\, and transformation. \n\n\n\nThis practice encourages you to deepen your presence\, expand creative resources\, and discover movement that feels both new and deeply personal. It provides tools to support choreographic inquiry\, the creative process\, and embodied exploration. \n\n\n\nTogether\, we experience cycles of arrival\, departure\, and return—each time discovering new territory. This workshop features live music by musician and composer Lisa DeGrace. We invite you to join us; the only requirement is a willingness to begin.

Some yoga mats and blankets will be available but please bring whatever materials you need to feel warm and relaxed. \n\n\n\nThe event will last 60 minutes. \n\n\n\nCome just for the Sonic Immersion or come early for Shake with Niki\, and stay for both. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n8

SUMMARY:Shake with Niki
DESCRIPTION:Shake with Niki (in-person only) \n\n\n\n4:30 – 5:30pm Second Sunday of every month\, starting November 10th (60-75 mins) \n\n\n\nGroup Shake – A somatic movement practice during which we will shake to music or sometimes\, silence. Shaking\, individually but as part of a group to ground us\, can be healing as it is a natural way to relieve tension. You may choose to shake standing\, seated\, lying down or alternating between those depending on what your body needs in the moment. You can choose your own intensity\, when to stop or when to keep going as you listen to your own body. While it is important to keep ourselves open to what\, if anything\, may arise emotionally\, please only engage to the degree that you can still care for yourself. This is not a therapeutic space. The practice will start with a demonstration and it will end in silence. Dress comfortably and stay hydrated! \n\n\n\n$10-$25
