Details: Don’t forget about our newest exercise craze—Conductorcise.  The uniqueness of CONDUCTORCISE® is born out of natural body movement and our physical response to music. Participants are made aware of rhythm, form, color through use of instruments, and the creative process. The music ranges widely, from marches by John Philip Sousa and Johann Strauss to beloved concert, ballet, and operatic classics of Mozart, Tchaikovsky, Brahms, and Dvorak to brilliant showpieces by Offenbach, Rimsky-Korsakov and Copland. No musical background is necessary!  Contact Ellen Erickson for more information at 216-2219 or EErickson@FrankeAtSeaside.org.
