UCLA danceline brings HBCU fire | The elegant Bruinettes UCLA 2024-02-21 | It can be said The Bruinettes have been training all their lives for this. They've followed their passion for dance throughout their lives; through different styles, different teams and different versions of themselves. Now as UCLA students, they have created for a platform where they represent African-American traditions in the UCLA community, bringing a spirit of joy to audiences.The Bruinettes at UCLA is a dance team formed to highlight the African-American danceline style created at Historically Black Colleges & Universities (HBCUs). The team is an inclusive space for Black students to find a way to represent themselves on campus and to express their love of dance in the stands and on the field, during official UCLA basketball and football games. It is a place for self-expression, self-love, and community. (paraphrased from https://community.ucla.edu/studentorg/5256)What is HBCU danceline?The HBCU danceline style typically integrates elements of jazz, hip-hop and some traditional African dance styles. Although, teams will incorporate elements from many more styles.What is the history of the HBCU danceline style?The 1968 Orange Blossom Classic, an annual HBCU football sporting event in Florida, hosted the first known majorette performance with the introduction of Alcorn State University's Golden Girls majorette team.

The greatest coach EVER | UCLA commemorates John Wooden UCLA 2024-02-20 | UCLA’s legendary Coach John Wooden (1910–2010) led the Bruins men’s basketball team to a record 10 national championships and four undefeated seasons between 1964 and 1975 and left an indelible mark on the university, the sport and a generation of student athletes. Today, his insightful lessons on basketball and living a successful life continue to inspire legions of fans and admirers around the world.An unparalleled mentor, Wooden did as much to prepare his players for life as for games. “Success,” he said, “is making the effort to do the best you can do,” and he gave shape to his philosophy through his books and his motivational Pyramid of Success, a model built upon tenets of loyalty, friendship and team spirit that has guided generations of leaders in sports, education and entrepreneurship.#johnwooden #pyramidofsuccess #ucla #uclabruins #college #basketball #indiana #wizardofwestwood

Practicing the Japanese tea ceremony at UCLA UCLA 2023-06-06 | We spent some time with UTeaLA, a campus club that meets weekly to practice the art of the Japanese tea ceremony. We sat down with some of UTeaLA’s members to get their take on what learning this meditative ritual means to them.What is a Japanese tea ceremony? Also called Chadō, "The Way of Tea", is regarded as both a social and meditative practice. Certain elements can vary according to the tradition, including what food is served. But matcha green tea is consistent throughout traditions. Where the ceremony is performed also varies but is usually done on a tatami– traditional woven grass mat. Part of UTeaLA's mission is to "introduce UCLA students to the Japanese Tea Ceremony and associated practices (e.g., kadō flower arrangement, shodō calligraphy, wagashi sweet making)."If you're interested in learning more about the Japanese tea ceremony, please visit uteala.org/. You can meet the club and participate in "The Way of Tea" every week.

Inside the UCLA Gamelan Room | The World Musical Instrument Collection UCLA 2023-05-25 | UCLA’s gamelan room contains an incredible array of instruments from around the world. We paid a visit to UCLA’s Schoenberg Music Building to see the collection in use by current students.The Gamelan Room is the largest of five rooms dedicated to World Music classes and practice. Countries represented include Bali, China and Korea.The total World Musical Instrument Collection has over 1200 instruments from six continents. Here, students explore music, tradition, customs, singing styles, languages, dances and costumes from the world's different regions.What is world music? Sometimes defined as "traditional music" or music from the developing world, world music can be thought of as music from the whole globe. Including ALL music traditions. Why is world music important? Doing away with a focus on Europe allows the study of all music on equal footing.From The Herb Alpert School of Music website (https://schoolofmusic.ucla.edu/facilities/world-music-instrument-collection/)"The World Musical Instrument Collection occupies approximately 3700 square feet in the newest wing of UCLA’s Schoenberg Music Building. The core collection is housed in the renowned Gamelan Room, the China Room, the Korea/Japan Room, and the India/Near East Room. You can also see many of our instruments in action during the annual Spring Festival of World Music and Jazz (held every May-June) and at the quarterly concerts by the Music of China ensemble (held each December and March). These concerts are free and open to the public."

L. 97-28 which authorized and requested the President to proclaim the week beginning March 7, 1982 as “Women’s History Week.” Throughout the next five years, Congress continued to pass joint resolutions designating a week in March as “Women’s History Week.” In 1987 after being petitioned by the National Women’s History Project, Congress passed Pub. L. 100-9 which designated the month of March 1987 as “Women’s History Month.” Between 1988 and 1994, Congress passed additional resolutions requesting and authorizing the President to proclaim March of each year as Women’s History Month. Since 1995, presidents have issued a series of annual proclamations designating the month of March as “Women’s History Month.” These proclamations celebrate the contributions women have made to the United States and recognize the specific achievements women have made over the course of American history in a variety of fields."
