The Tianguis de los Martes (Tuesday Market) is a giant market held every Tuesday across the Queretaro road from the Luciernega mall above town. It stretches nearly 1,000 feet under giant tarps and beneath them just about anything is for sale: seasonal and imported produce, antiques, blown glass, hand-carved furniture, pirated DVDs, computers, tablets, boom-boxes, hand made huraches, Barbie dolls, goldfish, pet birds, tools, bicycles, buttons, used and new clothes, fresh fish, local honey and cheeses.

Vendors are not all from San Miguel, but work a circuit of similar weekly outdoor markets in Queretaro and Guanajuato. There are scores of food stalls here (try “Huaraches Féliz,” a kind of taco made on sopes the size of a shoe sole).

TWO COPS AND LIFE ON THE STREETS OF CHICAGO:

A NEW PLAYREADER DRAMA

By Henry Vermillion

Denny is a Chicago cop. He is Italian, rash and impulsive. But, next to his job, his wife and kids are the most important thing in the world to him.

Joey, his partner and best friend since the third grade, is single, and is like a member of Joey´s family; he eats with them, he baby-sits the kids—he´s their best friend, too. Trouble enters when the two policemen release a naked, hysterical Pakistani teenager into the custody of a blonde Anglo man. The boy shortly meets a horrible fate at the man´s hands, and Denny and Joey are brought up on charges for not following the book in the case.

The play is called “A Steady Rain”, by Keith Huff, a resident playwright at Chicago Dramatists, and will be presented at St Paul´s Church (on Cardo # 6) next Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, January 22, 23, and 24.

A critic wrote: “Huff elevates to tragic dimensions the life of policemen the way Arthur Miller moulded Willy Loman in “Death of a Salesman”…”A Steady Rain” is the most potent new play on Broadway.” Time Magazine´s critic wrote: “The taut 90-minute script builds with a tragic inevitability, yet with a coda of redemption that seems neither forced or fake.” The language of the two is both earthy and witty.

The play is presented as a duolog between the two friends. Sometimes they tell us what has happened, sometimes they speak to each other. Fil Farmicola plays Denny, and Howard Bach plays Joey; Henry Vermillion directs, and Dic Simandl handles light and sound. Admission is $30 pesos. Tickets will be sold

Danza del Alma is an unguided, free expression form of dance where the music, and hence the body, follows an arch of rhythm from slow and fluid for warm up, to fast and uninhibited in the middle, to calm and meditative for warm down. Danza del Alma is based on Gabriel Roth’s “5 Rhythms”: This dance is “a soul journey… by moving the body, releasing the heart, and freeing the mind, one can connect to the essence of the soul, the source of inspiration in which an individual has unlimited possibility and potential.” – Gabriel Roth

Class etiquette:

o No outside shoes permitted. Special shoes for dancing inside only may be used.

o No perfume or other scents permitted. Some dancers are allergic.

o No talking permitted on the dance floor during class.

o Wear comfortable clothing. Shirts are required.

o Bring your own towel and drinking water.

o Doors to the dance salon are kept closed for privacy during class.

o No photos without consent of dancers.

Danza del Alma was founded in San Miguel de Allende in 1996. Our mission is to provide a safe and sacred space for all people wishing to explore their spirituality through music and movement.

Mary Jane Miller is organizing an 8 week directed group for prayer and and contemplation at St Paul's Anglican Church . The focus will be on Advent first and conclude with the Christmas season. We will ask what it means to come into the world, and the spiritual life which is activated as a result. Centering prayer, contemplative prayer and the prayer of quiet are all going to be explored in an effort to open ourselves to listening to God and remembering whose we are.
Beginning December1st and January 19th at St Paul's Church
The format will be simple, 20 minutes of quiet, 20 minutes of conversation, discussion observation, etc and finalize the time with another 20 minutes of quiet. 4 weeks in Advent and 4 weeks following Christmas, 50 pesos donation per session and there is no requirement you come to them all.
Every Thursdays 4 PM
IDEAS to be EXPLORED
Advent tells us Christ is near and
Christmas tells us Christ is here.

Christmas represents God's brilliant idea to become human and walk among us! Why do such a thing? Because we need an image of love for it to grow within us, to show us the way and to have a reference point for what is true, good and lasting love.
Come and prepare a place within yourself. Epiphany is the Christian celebration of what other religions call enlightenment. Enlightenment is the inward realization and consciousness of being identified with who we really are. We are individual expressions or manifestations of God, a wave of energy, light and purpose which flows through us.
"All great spirituality teaches about letting go of what you don't need and who you are not. Then, when you can get little enough and naked enough and poor enough, you'll find that the little place where you really are is ironically more than enough and is all that you need. At that place, you will have nothing to prove to anybody and nothing to protect.
All are welcome to share tier insights and experiences. Peace

What is Danzlibre/Que es Danzlibre?

Danzlibre is a voyage through music and your own spontaneous, authentic free-form movement and dance. Danzlibre is based on the transformational dance practices of Samantha Sweetwater’s Dancing Freedom. There is no set way for anyone to dance, and you can move as you please and the beat moves you. The practice is one of feeling yourself, finding yourself, and expressing yourself with movement (or stillness). There is a basic intention each time, to help us focus in common on a certain aspect of life, by way of a word or phrase to hold lightly in your head to get started and then to let go of it, to just be yourself, possibly as never before. If you have never danced in your life, and want to feel the freedom and joy of the union of body and mind in authentic expression to music, this is a perfect class for you. There is no way you can do it wrong!

Danzlibre esta formado y fundado en las practicas transformacionales de Dancing Freedom y otras practicas de bailes libres. No hay manera fijado para cualquiera persona bailar. Puedes mover como gustes y como el ritmo te mueva. La practica es uno de sentirte, encontrarte, y expresarte en movimiento o quietud. Hay una intención, cada vez, para enfocarnos en un aspecto de la vida, mediante una palabra o frase. Lo mantengas ligeramente en tu mente para comenzar, y después, déjalo salir, para que sea tu proprio ser: posiblemente como nunca antes. Si no has bailado nunca en tu vida pero mientras quieres experimentar la liberación y alegría de enlace cuerpo y mente en la expresión autentica conjunto con la música, esta clase es para ti! No hay ni una manera hacerlo mal!

Fil Farmicola plays Denny, and Howard Bach plays Joey; Henry Vermillion directs, and Dic Simandl handles light and sound. Admission is $30 pesos. Tickets will be sold

We play at the diportiva just up from Mega, and in front of the entrance to Los Frailes.

A paddle sport created for all ages and skill levels. The rules are simple and the game is easy for beginners to learn, but can develop into a quick, fast-paced, competitive game for experienced players.

The Basics
1. A fun sport that combines many elements of tennis, badminton and ping-pong.
2. Played both indoors or outdoors on a badminton-sized court and a slightly modified tennis net.
3. Played with a paddle and a plastic ball.

A Game for Everyone
The USAPA currently estimates there are now over 400,000 players actively playing pickleball.

English-speaking guides walk guests through San Miguel’s glorious past, showing them the city center, and its historic buildings and churches. The tour takes approximately two and one-half hours, covers a ten-block area and is mostly level walking. It is a definite “must” for any visitor to San Miguel! The Historical Walking tour has been awarded TripAdvisor’s Certificate of Excellence.

Some highlights of the tour include: La Parroquia – San Miguel’s iconic landmark church. Casa Canal – the magnificent former home of San Miguel’s most prominent family. El Nigromante – originally a convent, then San Miguel’s first school of art, now a cultural center. Vida Obra de General Ignacio Allende – David Siqueiros’ famous unfinished mural and House of Conspiracies – where the war of independence was planned.

Tours take place every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Groups meet in the Jardin across from the Parrroquia at 9:45 AM and leave at 10:00 AM. Cost: 300 pesos.

Your donation supports the work of Patronato Pro Niños, a non-profit organization that has provided dental and medical care to the children of the neediest families within our community and outlying area, since 1970. Revenue from the tours makes a substantial financial contribution the organization.

Danza del Alma is an unguided, free expression form of dance where the music, and hence the body, follows an arch of rhythm from slow and fluid for warm up, to fast and uninhibited in the middle, to calm and meditative for warm down. Danza del Alma is based on Gabriel Roth’s “5 Rhythms”: This dance is “a soul journey… by moving the body, releasing the heart, and freeing the mind, one can connect to the essence of the soul, the source of inspiration in which an individual has unlimited possibility and potential.” – Gabriel Roth

Class etiquette:

o No outside shoes permitted. Special shoes for dancing inside only may be used.

o No perfume or other scents permitted. Some dancers are allergic.

o No talking permitted on the dance floor during class.

o Wear comfortable clothing. Shirts are required.

o Bring your own towel and drinking water.

o Doors to the dance salon are kept closed for privacy during class.

o No photos without consent of dancers.

Danza del Alma was founded in San Miguel de Allende in 1996. Our mission is to provide a safe and sacred space for all people wishing to explore their spirituality through music and movement.
