Hey everybody...looking forwad to Dancing with you Wednesday!!! For those of you who haven't been to Groove Temple yet - you gotta experience it to understand the magic that is created between the DJ, Drummers and Dancers...And the atmosphere - WOW - we couldn't be more blessed - "Out of Asia" the Spiritual Oasis that houses this transformational evening takes you away to another place creating the space for you to let go of anything not serving your highest good, and enjoy the evening as if you're on vacation. ;-)

What to wear?

Dress in clothes and shoes that are comfortable to dance and stretch in (and you can still be cute - consider it your Dance Workout wit Style) Also, I suggest bringing layers, becuz you'll probably be sweaty from all the dancing - then for the sound healing and meditation at the end, your body temperature will drop and you'll need something to keep you warm.

Groove Temple goes beyond an ordinary Dance Experience...Combining Music, Dance and Relaxation Techniques..Rebalancing & Rejuvenating your Mind Body & Soul.

Review of Out of Asia by Robert H. on Yelp

Its really easy to miss this place. There's a small sign on Jefferson and another in La Cienega, but really not eye catching enough to grab your attention and make you want to visit. It would be a shame to not Out of Asia Venue because you'd be missing out on a Val treat. When you finally enter this place, it will seem like you've been transported to Asia.

The place is stuffed with Asian furniture, both modern and antiques. Its a warehouse similar in vein to the Dock in Boyle Heights, but with a lot more furniture to gawk at. The prices aren't outrageous either. Some of the items might be little pricey, but no where near what you'd be paying at a home furnishings store on Beverly Blvd.

The odd thing about this place is that it doesn't get a lot of foot traffic, so you might be the only one visiting the place when you're there. The first time I visited, I didn't see one worker. The second time I visited, I saw 3 of them.

I think the place is Filipino owned and many of their furniture is imported from the Philippines. But a lot of the furniture and items resemble those that come from other Asian countries like China and Thailand and even the Middle East.

Parking is easy. Finding the place from either Jefferson or La Cienega is a little bit of a challenge though. Just make sure to follow the signs.
