Tap Dancing at The Bluebird (The Lifelong Benefits of Dance) at Occidental Center for the Arts. Join us for a lively literary event with author Christine Walker, dance teacher Starr Hergenrather, and exercise physiologist Suze Cohan in conversation about “Tap Dancing at the Bluebird,’ Inspired by her love of dance, her grandmother’s Depression-era diaries, and the neuroscience of movement, music, and memory, the author invites us to an uplifting book talk with a dance sampler. The discussion will dip into American dance across the decades and how it reflects our multi-faceted culture. We’ll explore why dancing is good for the brain and the transformative power of dance for health, cognition, and feeling joyful. Starr will demo soft shoe, swing, and salsa and teach some steps. We’ll have a short party with music for dancing your own style. This is a FREE event! Donations gratefully accepted, refreshments offered. 3850 Doris Murphy Ct. Occidental, CA. 95465. Wheelchair accessible. OCA is a community-based non-profit arts organization with volunteer staffing.
