Origami & Cats
Saturday August 18th, 2018 10:00 AM until 11:45 AM
Location: The Dancing Cat (408) 459-9644
The Dancing Cat, 702 E Julian Street San Jose CA 95112

Saturday August 18th, 2018   |   10AM-11:45AM

In our fast-paced, fur-raising world there are many reasons to take a moment to learn origami, the ancient paper folding art which has long roots in both Japan and China; relaxed focus, gentle critical thinking, hand-eye coordination, and creative expression all come together as you put paws to paper. Are you more mathematically- than artistically-inclined? Come put geometry and fractions to work in creating beautiful paper sculptures. Origami is an art form for everyone – peaceful, portable, upcycle-able, and perfect for making paper cats!

During this workshop Denise Wang, of the South Bay Origami Group, will lead folders through the basics of origami, and into a few feline-inspired sculptures for you to show off at home. This workshop is intended for folders 12-years old and up, and artists of all skill level (from beginner, to more experienced) are welcome. You are welcome to bring a beverage or snack of your liking, or buy something from (and support) The Dancing Cat. Wifi, catnip, and kitty-critiques are on the house.

Class fee: $30 per person

Only 10 spots available, so sign up soon!

About Denise:

Denise used to fold traditional Origami models as a kid. In recent years, a series of incidental encounters reconnected her with this childhood hobby, and opened her eyes to the fascinating world of modern day Origami and the multitude of intricate techniques involved in paper folding. Since this reconnection, Origami has become a channel for her creativity, acts as a form of meditation, and become an unexpected platform for learning. Currently, Denise continues her Origami journey while teaching this incredibly fun art form to others.

Community Cat Care
Sunday August 19th, 2018 10:00 AM until 12:00 PM
Location: The Dancing Cat (408) 459-9644
The Dancing Cat, 702 E Julian Street San Jose CA 95112

Sunday August 19th, 2018   |    10:00AM-12:00PM 

When you take a look around your neighborhood, do you notice cats in your area that don’t seem to have a home? Have you found a litter of kittens and wondered whom to call? Join community cat experts Teri Monbureau and Christine Hernandez for a free workshop introducing Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR), feral cat management practices, local resources for feral cat spay/neuter, and proper use of humane traps. This workshop will offer the knowledge and skills needed to help feral kittens and stray cats in your community.

This workshop is free; donations are always appreciated and all funds go directly toward The Dancing Cat's mission of connecting loving, wonderful adult cats with their forever homes. All ages welcome!

About the Presenters: 
Christine started her cat career in 2010 at the San Jose Animal Shelter, socializing special needs, anxious, and shy cats & kittens. Feeling she needed to do more to help prevent so many cats from entering the shelter, she immersed herself in TNR. To date, Christine has helped make sure that over 500 cats will not have unwanted, over-populating litters of kittens through her trapping efforts. In addition to her TNR work, Christine cares for 5 community cat colonies.

Teri got involved with cat rescue in 2014 volunteering for feral colony care with 13th Street Cats, a San Jose local rescue organization. A few weeks of care and feeding of several managed colonies made her aware of the pronounced need for additional trappers to spay/neuter newly arrived community cats as well as to get sick or injured colony members to a vet for treatment. She attended a TNR training session, watched YouTube videos on trapping cats, and has been a proponent of it ever since!

Unleash your inner Pup-casso! You’ll create your own, one-of-a-kind acrylic pup portrait on canvas, done in a style inspired by American Pop Artist Andy Warhol. We'll walk you through each step of the process - from transferring your pup's image to the canvas with graphite, to painting the background, to painting the main features of your pup, to the final finishing details. We will use vibrant, non-toxic acrylic paints. No artistic experience is necessary!

Before the class begins, we will need you to email us a high-resolution digital photo of your pup. Uncropped, full-body shots with uncluttered backgrounds work best. 

All art materials and light refreshments will be provided.

About the instructor:

Mai is the founder artist of P.M.B.Q. Studios, a graphic and panda arts studio in San Jose, CA. Her work focuses on cheerful animal characters doing everyday things, striving to remind us to stop, enjoy and appreciate the simple things in life.

Join us for Doga at Pup Plaza, Silicon Valley's first dog community center!

Your Doga instructor will guide you and your pup through a 60-minute yoga practice and provide moments throughout the class for you to bond, reward, and breathe with your dog.  

You will be encouraged to share your energy with your dog and explore the natural bond that exists between you and your canine best friend.  Doga will provide you an opportunity to learn from your dog how to be in the present and have fun, while our dogs may pick up the calm and focus of our practice, eventually becoming more relaxed and comfortable with sharing a space with others.

Class fee: $15

Introduction to Animal Reiki
Sunday May 5th, 2019 2:00 PM until 03:30 PM
Location: Pup Plaza
14408 Union Avenue San Jose CA 95124

This is a short introduction course in opening your mind and heart to loving-kindness and connecting with Animals through Reiki.

Meditating with animals can help you let go of things that are holding you back from finding your true happiness in life. Your animals will feel the benefits of healing emotional, trauma behaviors and physical ailments. The path of healing is a lifelong journey of peeling back the layers that cover up your inner light.
Get ready to receive the joyful gift of abundant healing; the animals will show you the way!

What you will learn:

  • The traditional Japanese meaning of Reiki and how it relates to the healing of self and others
  • The Reiki Precepts, and meditations and working with them with animals
  • Hands-on Reiki self-treatment, and how to incorporate animals into these sessions
  • Techniques for grounding, expansion and connection to help you become an animal magnet to even the most sensitive animals!
  • The philosophy of “being” Reiki “with” your animals, rather than doing” Reiki “to” them
