Once again Bolinas is having its counterculture July 4th parade through town and to the beach, even though Michelle, who usually organizes, won't be there.

Bruce Silverman will lead the Sons and Daughters of Orpheus (his drumming group), along with Lucha's long-time collaborator Maisa Duke and a bunch of her dancers as well as local Bolinas dancers and possibly some local drummers. Bruce is inviting all Luchistas to come drum with him for the event.

They'll do their versions of three rhythms: Samba, Samba Reggae, and Banda. They'll meet for a quick rehearsal just before the parade, at 9:30 am, at the end of Wharf Road, almost to the beach, by his turquoise Toyota minivan --- you can learn parts there and then. Then the parade usually starts at 11 and only takes about an hour, since the route about 0.6 miles:

On Saturday, July 12 from 5:00 to 6:30pm, Beto Guimaraes (www.betoguimaraes.org) returns to World Dance Center to teach an exciting and unique Maracatú Dance Movements Workshop at World Dance Center.

A master dance instructor from Recife, Brazil, Beto's fun and energetic teaching style made him a favorite teacher during his time at WDC. Over the years, his workshops and classes throughout the Northwestern United States, Texas and Brazil have earned him rave reviews and new fans.

This workshop will feature live drumming by members of Maracatú Luta and will cost only $15 (WDC students with class cards, please see Ave Maria for a special offer; sorry, no trade cards).

Maracatú is a form of dance form, primarily danced in the Northeast of Brazil. It was brought to the state of Pernambuco by Congolese slaves in the 18th century. It represrents the proud coronation of the kings and Queens of Congo in Brazil. The dance is processional and often is danced during Carnaval in Recife and other cities across the Northeast.
