SUMMARY:Contemporary Dance 6-week series Elizabeth Lentz-Hill. In-Person
DESCRIPTION:6-week seriesSeptember 2 – October 7\, 2026Wednesdays\, 7:15 – 8:15 pmPrice: $135 \n\n\n\n\nSign Up Here →\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis six-week series explores the fundamental movements and body awareness at the heart of Contemporary Modern Dance. Open to all levels\, each class includes warm-ups\, structured improvisation\, across-the-floor combinations\, and choreography designed to help you discover the joy\, freedom\, and expressive power of movement. Whether you’re building a strong foundation or refining more advanced technique and artistry\, each dancer will be supported at their individual level. \n\n\n\nThrough mindful movement and creative exploration\, you’ll deepen your body awareness\, strengthen the connection between mind and movement\, and discover new ways to express yourself. This class encourages you to explore your unique movement potential while cultivating confidence\, presence\, and authenticity\, both as a dancer and as a human being. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\nElizabeth Lentz-Hill \n\n\n\nElizabeth’s students love the joy\, humor and freedom of expression in her classes. Her classes inspire students to think about dance and life in new\, exciting ways. \n\n\n\nElizabeth grew up in Hawaiʻi and is happy to be home\, dancing in the place she loves\, after more than twenty years of experience performing\, teaching\, choreographing and promoting dance. She has toured France\, Brazil\, Mexico\, and the U.S. with Tennessee Dance Theatre\, Chicago Moving Company\, Lucky Plush Productions\, and Breakbone DanceCo.\, and performed works by Bill T. Jones\, Doug Elkins\, Twyla Tharp\, and Charles Weidman. \n\n\n\nPrior to returning to Hawaiʻi in 2018\, Elizabeth co-founded two dance companies and two regional dance festivals on the continent\, one to promote modern dance in Chicago and one for 7-12th grade dancers and their dance educators in Mississippi. She served as an Associate Professor of Dance at the University of Southern Mississippi (USM)\, where she taught ballet\, modern\, dance education\, anatomy\, choreography\, and dance theory classes. While at USM\, Elizabeth worked to bridge the Dance and Theatre Departments\, including co-creating a full-length devised theatre work with funding from the National Endowment for the Arts and serving as Interim Chair for both departments. She holds a BA in Religion with a concentration in Women’s Studies from Carleton College\, and an MFA in Dance from the University of Washington. \n\n\n\n“Ms. Lentz-Hill has effervescence\, an inner glow\, and an absolute belief in what she is presenting in the studio. There is an indefinable type of energy that leaps from her to her students. These qualities projected not only from Ms. Lentz-Hill but also from the students in the residency as they worked with her. The dancers left her sessions with knowledge of a dynamic energy\, knowing they had something of value to contribute to the community around them so much greater than an ability to be a technically sound dancer. To paraphrase a student in the residency – working with Ms. Lentz-Hill was not just a lesson in technique\, it was a lesson in life! “ – Mid-Pacific Institute

SUMMARY:Aloha Friday Function & Flow Yoga In the Park with Robin Shepard
DESCRIPTION:Friday\, September 4\, 2026 \n\n\n\n5:30 – 6:30 PMFREE \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSign Up Here\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nYou deserve to wind down for the weekend and treat yourself to a mindful movement experience.  \n\n\n\nWe invite you to join us for a refreshing Aloha Friday Function & Flow Yoga Pop-Up session at The Park Ke’eaumoku. \n\n\n\n Robin Shepard from The Still & Moving Center warmly invites you to experience the FluidUs yoga practice. Appropriate for all levels (including absolute beginners)\, her class provides you with functional movement\, natural breath mechanics\, and balance through grounding – all with practical applications for your daily life.  \n\n\n\nRobin’s preferred yoga technique – called FluidUs – arises from a deep understanding of the body’s myofascial lines and the ways our bodies work as a coordinated and interconnected system rather than a series of separate mechanical parts.  \n\n\n\nExpect novel approaches to traditional postures and props\, sincerity\, a sense of humor\, and fun!  \n\n\n\nAs you move\, you discover and celebrate your body’s innate intelligence . You find out how good it feels to move in a full-body\, integrated way.  \n\n\n\nRobin teaches yoga with a light\, listen-to-your-body approach to achieve genuine body satisfaction and results. You’ll notice how these beneficial movement patterns help you unravel some of the habits and dysfunctional postures of our modern lifestyles.  \n\n\n\nThe yoga class will take place at 1515 Liona street Honolulu HI 96814 on the grassy area in front of Midtown Eats.  \n\n\n\nPlease bring a towel and water bottle. Guests should also bring their own yoga mat\, as mats are not included.  \n\n\n\nThis class is is OPEN TO THE PUBLIC and sponsored by The Park on Ke’eaumoku and Midtown Eats.  \n\n\n\nTo complete your booking for this FREE class: On the checkout and booking page please SELECT YOUR HOME LOCATION as “Still & Moving Center”. \n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\nRobin Shepard ACAD 1\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nRobin enjoys teaching both the young and the young-at-heart. As a life-long learner\, she is fascinated by recent scientific discoveries around fascia and functional movement and their implications for the practice of yoga. This curiosity has fueled exploration and experimentation to create a style of movement that is playful and dynamic\, with practical benefit for everyone from absolute beginners to more advanced practitioners. \n\n\n\nRobin constantly looks for ways to deliver a more personal experience\, with respectful irreverence and fun. Whether on the yoga mat or in the aerial hammock\, she links functional movement skills\, breath mechanics\, and novel approaches to traditional poses to increase somatic awareness\, mobility\, and build an organic mind/body connection. \n\n\n\nAs a long time practitioner\, Robin has personally experienced the difference that regularly practicing yoga can make in a person’s life. She sees yoga as a doorway\, progressing from movement into meditation\, awareness\, understanding\, and finally acceptance of ourselves and others. She considers yoga a powerful and essential practice to help navigate our modern world. \n\n\n\nOriginally a native of the Pacific Northwest\, often visiting our islands\, Robin spent 13 years traveling\, raising her family\, and acquiring knowledge and skills in Guangzhou and Shanghai\, China\, as well as Ho Chi Minh City\, Viet Nam. Having purchased a home here in 2014\, Robin is delighted to call Honolulu home. \n\n\n\nShe completed her foundational yoga teacher trainings with Suzanne Vian of Yoga Vietnam and her 300 hour Yoga Teacher Training in the FluidUs Method with Carlos Tao. She has taught yoga for years\, assisting with Yoga Teacher Trainings. Additionally\, Robin is an experienced\, registered Children’s Yoga Teacher and a Yoga Alliance Continuing Education Provider\, with training in Pre-Natal and Post-Natal yoga. \n\n\n\nSince arriving in Honolulu in 2020\, Robin has been captivated by the modality of aerial yoga and has completed her teacher training with Carmen Curtis\, founder of AIReal Yoga\, in AIReal Yoga\, AIReal Restore\, and Aerial Hammock Dance. \n\n\n\nAcademy of Mindful Movement certified\, Level 1E-RTY500\, RCYT\, YACEPYoga Alliance Registry # 212567
