Hard to believe but your Pilates (Yoga too) will be more efficient, proficient and happy!  For those who think Pilates is too hard or you have to be flexible already to do it, MELT training will make your body more supple and receptive so that your Pilates practice is deeper, authentic, organic and pain-free. We may add some ELDOA which is deep postural fascia stretching. MELT Performance  This workshop engages you in the more advanced moves on the roller in all dimensions, front, side and sitting to make your stabilization and alignment mechanisms shake, indicating you have a new neural pathway. Again, you learn the new model of understanding the body and how to apply it in your everyday life. We may add some ELDOA which is deep postural stretching. This way your nervous system remodels itself for longevity. If you have any inhibitions or delays in your stabilizers, you will remodel them and then be able to move in the ways you love without pain, dysfunction, and worry.  STOTT PILATES® Conditioning Towel Workout This simple Pilates-based routine developed by the Merrithew™ team uses the support and resistance of a Conditioning Towel to maintain form. Ideal for those who are less flexible, the towel assists in helping increase the range of motion of the joints and allows muscles to lengthen effectively. Scapular and shoulder stability are highlighted while core strength and stability are enhanced, enabling better performance in other physical activities  Includes a complimentary workout towel with the exercises printed on the front. MELT Pain and Injury  This workshop teaches the first level moves on the scientifically designed MELT roller to self-create all the internal health and good stuff you don't necessarily see...creating collagen and elastin, hydrating your connective cells through gentle massage and changing the pressure on the diaphragm, nourishing the fascia, creating true joint stability for feel-good results that last. Yes, you learn new info about your body based on the new, evidenced-based neuro-fascial science. And you can trust the feeling and sense in your body first and foremost.  STOTT PILATES® Matwork with Ankle Tubing Designed to enhance body awareness, muscular strength, motor control, and joint mobility, this workshop takes a fresh look at creating flowing sequences with STOTT PILATES® Matwork exercises using ankle tubing.

Southern Culture on the Skids

Moe's Alley proudly presents KPIG favorites SOUTHERN CULTURE ON THE SKIDS.

Southern Culture On The Skids has been consistently recording and touring around the world since its inception in 1983, when Rick Miller was a grad student at UNC-Chapel Hill. The current lineup (Dave Hartman – drums; Mary Huff – bass and vocals; Rick Miller – guitar and vocals) has been playing together for over 30 years. The band’s musical journey has taken them from all-night NC house parties to late night network talk shows, and from performing at the base of Mt. Fuji in Japan to rockin’ out for the inmates at NC Correctional Facilities. Their music has been featured in movies and TV, and used to sell everything from diamonds to pork sausage, and their legendary live shows are a testament to the therapeutic powers of foot-stomping, butt-shaking rock and roll.

SCOTS’ DIY roots go all the way back to the days of making cassette demos in the dirt floor basement of the original band house. “It was a beat down house we found in the woods, covered in kudzu vines”, Rick recalls. “We hunkered down there and came up with the sound and ideas we’ve been refining and tweaking ever since; a blue plate special of musical genres, all mixed together to give up new flavors and combinations.”
