Sign up for an Immersion Class today and take advantage of the New Client Intro - 3 classes for $45. You can drop into a class whenever you want, whether you're sweating a fun, relaxing session in Rittenhouse or at the Liberties Walk location.
Dhyana Yoga is another neighborhood-friendly yoga studio that has locations in Old City, Rittenhouse Square, West Philadelphia, and the Main Line. So wherever you are in Philadelphia, there's a Dhyana class happening nearby. They offer a variety of workshops and hold over 125 classes per week, so there's bound to be something that fits into your schedule.

How Philly Moves: A Moving Tribute to Philadelphia Dancers
Design concept by JJ Tiziou. (c) City of Phil
Do you remember what the current parking garages at the Philadelphia International Airport look like?
No, why would you? It's the same bland structure you'd find at most airports. How Philly Moves, a project from the Philadelphia Mural Arts Program, aims to change that. They want to add 50,000 square feet of photographic work from West Philly artist Jacques-Jean “JJ” Tiziou to the garage. This would liven up the scene for over 32 million national and international travelers that pass by each year. For the half-mile-long stretch, Tiziou will choose images of dancing figures. He has photographed over 70 subjects so far, from amateur to professional, and will shoot another 60 dancers next month at the Painted Bride Art Center. Do you like to dance? Submit an application for your chance to be a part of the final design.
So how does Philadelphia move? Quite differently. From one neighborhood to the next, we find wide varieties of dancing. In Fishtown, we have the Philadelphia Argentine Tango School, then we have the West African dance and drumming clubs in West Philadelphia. There's the Indigenous Pitch Dance Collective who combine many homegrown styles of dance, and the Kun Yang Lin dance company in South Philly, that bring Eastern Asian influence to Western contemporary dance style. We have hoop dancers and burlesque troupes, crowds of swaying bodies at dance parties, and the movement in the streets during rush hour. We know that Tiziou will capture some of this and make coming home from the airport a better experience.
The Foodery Beer Academy Hits Northern Liberties, Center City, and West Philly
This Thursday, instead of your traditional happy hour, come over to Cantina Dos Segundos for some real training. The wise beer gods of the Foodery have started a roving Beer Academy, inviting curious drinkers to try 12 styles of beer to better educate their tasting skills. You'll learn how to describe beer flavors and become more adventurous at the bar. The one hour class costs $15 per person and you can pick up tickets there or at either Foodery location.
The first event will be in Northern Liberties, but they'll be wheeling classes to Local 44 in West Philadelphia (one of our favorites) on Saturday and Nodding Head in Center City the following Saturday. Here is the schedule:
Thursday, Feb 18 4pm; Dos Segundos : 931 N 2nd St : 215-629-0500
Saturday, Feb 20 3pm; Local 44 : 4333 Spruce St : 215-222-2337
Saturday, Feb 27 1pm; Nodding Head : 1516 Samson : 215-569-9525
