The combination of community focus and electronic music makes Drishti Beats a natural fit for the world of EDM. Founded in 2013, Drishti Beats is the epitome of a family business: Three family members in addition to Lowell either actively teach or perform live music during sessions. Jeremy Lowell is a yoga teacher and leader, Ariel Lowell is Drishti Beats’ main vocalist, and Alec Lowell is the resident rapper and one of the producers of Drishti Beats. The musical side of things is rounded out by Ricardo Branco, a world-renowned saxophonist. Lori Lowell grew up in a musical family and has been performing Sephardic folk songs and traveling the world with her mother, famed folk musician Flory Jagoda, for over 30 years. The 91 year-old Jagoda, who is from Bosnia, was a child when she escaped the Holocaust horrors in Zagreb, in the former Yugoslavia. Fittingly, music served as her escape, as she rode what would be her getaway train. Fitness is also an area of expertise for the Lowells. Lori and Jeremy own eleven Gold’s Gyms on the East Coast and throughout the Midwest. Lori also specializes in programming in the fitness industry. She recently won theInternational Women’s Leadership Award. Drishti Beats recently announced a 200-hour teacher training program that will launch in September. Fully approved by the Yoga Alliance, the program offers training by a team from a myriad of backgrounds, including leaders in the fitness/yoga industry, medical-based professionals, teachers, and curriculum developers - all with strong yoga practices. write your comments about the article :: © 2015 Jazz News :: home page |
