Dance Exchange

Event: Free Adult Self-Defense Intro Class 
When:&nbsp;Sunday, 1:30–3:00 p.m. 
Where: Dance Exchange, Studio 3, Takoma Park 
Who: Adults (18+)
Residents of Takoma Park, Maryland, are invited to attend a free introductory self-defense class for adults. Maryland Systema offers practical training for people who want to improve their awareness, movement, balance, and ability to respond under pressure.
This Takoma Park self-defense class focuses on realistic adult training rather than sport, competition, or memorized routines. Participants will receive an introduction to Maryland Systema’s approach to self-protection through breathing, relaxation, posture, structure, and natural movement.
The class includes instructor-led exercises and controlled contact. Training begins gradually so participants can learn how balance, distance, positioning, and decision-making affect personal safety.
No previous martial arts or self-defense experience is required. The class is designed for adult beginners and people who may feel unsure about joining a traditional martial arts school. There is no sparring, no competition, and no requirement to work beyond your comfort level.
This free introductory class gives Takoma Park residents an opportunity to experience Maryland Systema firsthand before deciding whether to attend future classes. There is no contract or obligation to continue.
Wear comfortable clothing that allows you to move freely. Class size is limited.
Before attending, text Maryland Systema at 301-326-9146 to confirm your attendance. Classes are occasionally canceled because of scheduling changes.

Shakespeare made over 2,300 references to love, lovers or beloved within the entire body of his work. Just as every play has a banquet scene, surely there are as many love scenes. Right? That’s what one would think. The truth is that actual love scenes as we think of them today are few and far between, which begs the question, what is The Bard’s relationship to love? And does his version of love truly stand the test of time?
Love’s the Thang! is a blend of Shakespearean love scenes paired with foundational Black music, spoken word, and poetry. It’s the ultimate Shakespearean love remix that tries to define the thing that even Shakespeare could never quite wrap his head around…love.
Featuring Music and Poetry by DJ Renegade, Stevie Wonder, Nina Simone, Kai Davis, Mona Lake Jones, Maya Angelou, LL Cool J, and Etta James.Music arranged by Hurt City DJ’s. 
General Admission: $10.00
MC Students w/ID: $5.00
