Body Rock Dance Competition, the Iconic International Dance Event, is celebrating its 25th year of production. Beginning in the year 2000, BODY ROCK has grown to a huge platform for aspiring dancers in the Global Dance Community. With its humble beginnings on a gym floor in San Diego, our passion for dance and hip hop came from the spread of dance teams up and down California. We presented one of the first dance competitions to showcase street dance crews and professional choreography teams and the rest was history! With the creation of Youtube in the mid 2000’s, our show went viral and transformed the accessibility of dance crew videos and changed how dancers were viewed in the mainstream media. We continue to influence the atmosphere of local dance creating outlets for youth, maintaining a safe and inclusive staff, and promoting authentic community relationships. We not only helped to move our dance community forward, but created a path for the next generation of dancers. Our legacy includes groups and choreographers such as the Jabbawockeez, Keone & Mari Madrid, Kyle Hanagami, The Kinjaz and Tessandra Chavez. Some crews like Korea’s “Just Jerk” have also become Viral on Youtube and TikTok with over millions of views. Annually, our show draws a crowd of +2000 people and our participants now include groups from Mexico, Germany, New Zealand, China, Australia, Korea, Russia, the Philippines and Japan! We have also expanded and have qualifier shows in Asia and Latin America. Witness the culmination of the cultures, stories, and dances of crews from all over the world! 25+ teams will perform June 29, 2025. The event starts @ 6 p.m. and ends at 9 p.m. *Due to the adult language and loud volume of some music, we do not recommend this show for small children/ infants. - All tickets are assigned seating - All tickets are non-refundable This event will sell out!!

Experience Divine Light healing, performed in a supportive group setting, as you are guided through a highly effective technique to receive spiritual energy to heal and transform your life. Whether you are seeking physical, mental or emotional transformation, Divine Light healing is a full-spectrum aura therapy. Each month, we will offer insights into the spiritual healing principles with the aura and Divine Light. Participants will be organized into small groups and receive a direct Divine Light healing from our trained spiritual healers. Plus, there is a special healing offered on the nervous system to release stress and tension. The aura is key to healing, because it is the place where you generate the spiritual energy to manifest health. Drawing on a 4,000 year mystical tradition, these techniques were developed by Barbara Y. Martin and Dimitri Moraitis and built on the clairvoyant experiences of Barbara over five decades. They are taught in their award-winning book The Healing Power of Your Aura which has been endorsed by medical luminaries C. Norman Shealy and Dr. Richard Gerber. “Spiritual energy is the single biggest key to building and sustaining health, because it connects you to your source of health.” Barbara Martin & Dimitri Moraitis – The Healing Power of Your Aura The SAI Faculty come from diverse backgrounds, yet have a common goal to share with others the metaphysical wisdom offered at the Institute. Teaching certification requires a minimum of seven years or more of practice and study.
