Disproving the myth that "there's nothing to do in Kansas City" one week at a time. Forward to colleagues, friends, & visitors and see you around town!
As you can assume from the title, the vinyasa class is a bit more fast-paced than & a killer workout. 60-minutes of moving and breathing with intention, all while hip-hop/R&B songs play in the background. AKA everything you love about yoga, but with better background music! Plus, as always we end the night with Happy Hour.
Come join me for a night of great music and positive vibes! Featuring myself, Amber Underwood and Ebony Fondren! You won't be disappointed. No cover and show begins at 6pm.
The Jazz History tour visits special sites in Kansas City that played a significant role in the life and development of Charlie Parker. The two-part tour begins at 9:30 a.m. at the American Jazz Museum with a walking tour of the Jazz District. The tour will feature a presentation by jazz historian Chuck Haddix in the Centennial United Methodist Church.
We will learn from experts on housing, poverty, and neighbourhoods. We will work with one of the country’s richest datasets on eviction: 173,720 address-level Jackson County eviction records, spanning 17 years. In small groups, we will lay the groundwork for community education and policy change.
We offer a unique vendor gallery of products and services to explore, artistic entertainment, raffle drawings throughout the evening, hors d'oeurves and wine tasting. Our own "Black Girls Rock" Award.
