Seniors - Interactive & Therapeutic Music Session - Playing, Jamming, Dancing!

Seniors - Interactive & Therapeutic Music Session - Playing, Jamming, Dancing!

Thu, Aug 13, 9:00 PM
From Interactive Music and Dancing for Seniors in the Valley

This meetup group is all about appreciating the wonderful music (pop, soul, rock, jazz) of decades past, roughly encompassing the 50's to the 80's. We use music to facilitate interaction and for the therapeutic benefits, especially for seniors, of rhythm-based music therapy. As a professional drummer and songwriter, I have found that listening to and enjoying music from a rhythmic standpoint has great benefits for people of any musical background. The only requirement is that you enjoy music too! This particular group is open to all individuals in the area who are at least 55 years in age. I have carried out many sessions like this with great results, as I especially love bringing joy to seniors, who too often don't have viable social opportunities and don't have any way of revisiting good memories from their youth via music. The primary reason to join this group is to HAVE FUN! To expand on that, the fun you have during these sessions is based on simultaneous appreciation of music and positive social interaction with an individual who is not necessarily in your age group (ME!). If you would like to enjoy not just listening to music, but interactively getting INSIDE the music by rhythmically playing along or clapping, then join! If you are looking to meet other like-minded, music-loving seniors, then join! If you want to have a unique experience enjoying music you love while creating lasting friendship, then join! While I certainly offer musical knowledge with each session and information regarding the instruments and the music that I bring, my priority is for you to have a great time while also possibly learning something about music! In a typical session, we begin by chatting for a few minutes about music (or any other topic!). Oftentimes, I will then do a quick performance to demonstrate the rhythmic approach to listening to music. Then, I pass out small instruments to whoever may be interested while we play, sing, clap, and dance! If you have limited mobility, you can still join in with small percussion instruments that I bring, or you can simply watch and listen. You will forget your aches and pains for an hour as we jam together within the context of music you love, like Stevie Wonder, the Beatles, Benny Goodman, the Grateful Dead, Michael Jackson, and a whole lot more. I often dance with and interact with everyone in the room while we play our instruments and forget our worries inside the music. If you're a senior who loves music, join our group today! I'm very much looking forward to meeting you! No musical experience necessary.

Hidden Restaurant Game in Culver City

Hidden Restaurant Game in Culver City

Thu, Aug 13, 2:00 AM
From Explore Los Angeles
4.6

This is the first Restaurant Drop: a hidden restaurant game for up to 10 pairs in Downtown Culver City. Bring one friend and be somewhere in or near Downtown Culver City by **7:00 PM on Wednesday, August 12**. At 7:00, every pair receives the first photo of a hidden restaurant. If you think you recognize the location, you can immediately start heading there. Two clearer photos unlock later. You can choose to unlock the next photo early, but however much time you skip is added to your final time. For example, if the next photo unlocks in four minutes and you request it now, four minutes are added to your finish time. So you have to decide: wait for a clearer photo, or take the risk and go. Your finish time is recorded when both people in your pair arrive at the restaurant. The three pairs with the fastest adjusted finish times win. **First place:** Dinner covered **Second and third place:** Smaller meal rewards After everyone arrives, anyone who wants can stay and eat together. It’s **$10 per pair**. Since this is the first one, if you participate and genuinely feel it wasn’t worth the $10, message me afterward, and I’ll refund you. You do not need to provide an explanation. **Up to 10 pairs. You must sign up with one friend.** Note\*\*\* **One person should RSVP for the pair and select one guest. The $10 payment covers both people.** After RSVPing, send $10 to **Venmo** [Yohanes-Isaac]. Include your Meetup name in the note. Your pair is confirmed once payment is received. I do also take Zelle if that's your only payment method. Lastly: If you can't find a pair in time, message me, and you can either do this mission solo or I'll pair you with one other person.
