Yoga and Music with Robert Spalding Newcomb
Tuesday, November 12, from 11:30 am-1:00 pm
Duderstadt Center Gallery

As part of our post-election, relax, recover and rebalance activities, Robert Spalding Newcomb, retired Associate Director of Media & Studio Arts at the Duderstadt Center, will be leading a 30 minute yoga class in the DC Gallery. The yoga class will be followed by a solo musical performance of inspiring and challenging improvisations on nylon string MIDI guitar, sitar, drum pad and laptop. 

Everyone is welcome to attend either or both events!

Robert’s yoga practice stems from years of study with Swami Bua Ji Maharaj in NYC and certification in the RussaYog discipline created by Jasprit Singh, College of Engineering Professor Emeritus.

For yoga participation, please bring a yoga mat and dress comfortably!
