MC YOGI & AMANDA GIACOMINI
----------------------------
MC Yogi and Amanda Giacomini are a husband and wife team who have been co-teaching yoga classes since 2001 when they founded their studio Yoga Toes Studio in Point Reyes, CA.
They began their studies with Indian master Shri K. Pattabhi Jois and local San Francisco teacher Larry Schultz of It’s Yoga. Over the years they were influenced by the creativity and diversity of many esteemed American teachers and while rooted in the Vinyasa tradition, they offer a a more creative, medium intensity, flow practice that is interwoven with philosophy, storytelling, music and art.
MC Yogi and Amanda have taught all over the world at yoga festivals and conferences, yoga studios, teaching centers, Asian Art museums and even the White House. From inner-city elementary schools to Stanford University, they are committed to bringing the benefits of yoga to people of all ages, and in 2011, they were honored to become Ambassadors to Michelle Obama’s Let’s Move initiative.
Over the years they have supported many yoga based charities including; Off the Mat Into the World, Africa Yoga Project, Yoga Aid, Asian Classics Input Project, Headstand, Yoga Prison Project, and more.

DJ DREZ
-------
Drez delves into blending yesterday's roots with the innovative urban beats of today. His gradual evolution from Hip Hop DJ to World Music Taste Maker has blossomed a litany of accomplishments that have garnered Drez the title as one of the highest ranking DJs and producers in LA's underground music scene. When he isn't in the studio producing, spinning at some underground Hip Hop club, or having impromptu late night jam sessions with local artists, you might find him on his mat. Drez is a certified yoga instructor who teaches privately in Los Angeles and spends time helping fellow musicians with their yoga practice at home and when away on tour. In addition, you will see him djing yoga retreats and world music festivals from Europe to Asia or catch the latest on his accomplishments in the pages of magazines ranging from The Source to Yoga Journal. None of this is unusual for a true renaissance man like DJ Drez.

DJ ROWAN
---------
Rowan is a warrior of liquid rhythms and deep soulful grooves that sublimate into tangible, impermanent frequencies on the dance floor in explosions of ethereal inspiration. Comfortable in the fringes of reality, readily passing between worlds in search of deep, heart-opening and inspiring dance music, Rowan is equipped with a diverse palette of genres that find form in co-creation with the dancefloor.
Regularly found hosting and performing with legendary musical nomads who bring sounds from far off lands, this dj/promoter/producer is committed to high-vibrational dance experiences and consistently delivers tightly mixed and expertly programmed sets at a variety of tempos.
Sometimes venturing into the sub-frequencies in the dub, glitch genres, but more frequently traversing the depths of hypnotic quadraphonic tribal funk. Into this pixelated tapestry of electronic, android bleeps and triangle waves, Rowan frequently interweaves a subtle cultural narrative of exotic spices, tribal drums and organic vibrations.
