Trades 4 Life 2014 Schedule

Trades 4 Life 2014 Schedule | Cayo Scoop!  The Ecology of Cayo Culture | Scoop.it

Trades 4 Life, located in Belmopan, has their 2014 schedule out, with some classes starting in the middle of January.  They've added a new class called Welding and Machining.

 

"2014 is bringing new and exciting things to our Belize school of training.  T4L is now a registered school in the country of Belize, which will provide further credibility for those receiving instruction at our facility.  At Trades 4 Life, we believe providing Trade, Life, and Leadership skills develops young men into highly employable tradesmen capable of offering leadership in work, business, and family.  The upcoming season will offer a new course not provided in 2012-2013 - Welding and Machining.  We are excited to welcome Mr. Tom Theunissen, a veteran instructor from South Africa who will be teaching this curriculum.  Students will have the opportunity to learn these practical skills in a hands-on environment."

Belizean Music Influences Danny Michel

Belizean Music Influences Danny Michel | Cayo Scoop!  The Ecology of Cayo Culture | Scoop.it

Danny Michel has his 10th album out, and once again it was inspired by Belizean music.  This time, he recorded with the Garifuna Collective in Benque.  In some of his previous music videos, you can see how he incorporates his visits to Belize into them.  

 

See him on Youtube with the Garifuna Collective: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cZUs1KwTd4s

 

"Black Birds Are Dancing Over Me is a collaboration with Benque Players and the indigenous music of Belize’s Garifuna Collective.  It was recorded and produced at the Stonetree Records studio of Benque Players’ Ivan Duran.  It’s in the creative mode of Simon’s Graceland, the famous 1986 collaboration with South African and New Orleans zydeco musicians.  But Michel’s album is far more personal...  The result is a wonderful blend of Michel’s folk style and Latin rhythms.  He plans to bring Benque Players north in the summer to do folk festivals in Canada."
