On Day 65 of Kundalini Yoga I experience what Rocky has been talking about all this time The integration of Mind, Body and Spirit Stunningly simple and uncomplicated A moment on my mat When everything both past and present matters not Where bliss lives In the house of Sat Nam My Truth

Super! LOVE the narrative arc. Excellently crafted. Fabulous trio and vocal quartet – you guys are nailing those complex harmonies and it is a pleasure to the ear! I especially like how the chemistry between the four of you is developing through the show. You’re in great voice and those dance moves work well!!

There is nothing more fun than a revue of well known music when it hits the mark! Rocky… a pro with such great energy who needs no roadmap around this material, knows his way around a song and can still “dish the dirt” with the rest of the company. Thank you for such a delightful, memorable evening – ol’ blue eyes would tip his fedora to you for this awesome salute to his songbook!

The upheaval of 2020 gave me a chance to sit under Rocky’s teaching three times per week. I have found kundalini yoga helped me in ways I could not have anticipated: the emphasis on breath has made wearing masks easier, the stretching has kept back pain at bay during long zoom calls, and the meditations have delivered deep and long sleep. Of course, the sculpting of my body shape hasn’t hurt my spirits, either! The combination of self-care and Rocky care has turned a hard time into a time of gro… Read more

The show was just terrific, and you were constantly a highlight. Great voice, presence, and styling. And boy can you find your light!!!! Hard to isolate stand-out moments as the whole piece sizzled. Your “I’ll Be Seeing You” brought new depth to a familiar standard. I also enjoyed your casual but infectious interaction with the other singers – bringing such a variety of experiences to the material.

“One for My Baby”, was absolutely A+ ~ Your intimate story-telling and using your pianist as the bartender was inspired. It turned a routine standard into a contemporary reflection on loss.

After SO many years, I finally had the opportunity to see you perform live. And what a fun show it was! Rocky, when you spoke of the memory work and harmonies involved in the Sinatra show I had no idea. Wow! You weren’t kidding! It was such a treat, an ear-tickling joy to hear the complexity of the arrangements and the absolutely stunning 4-part voicing. Every note hit with precision. So much so that several times during the performance I caught myself grinning from ear to ear in sheer delight a… Read more

Yesterday’s performance was simply stunning, enjoyable, heart-warming and lovely. Jeff and I thoroughly enjoyed ourselves… Charlie Creasy’s arrangements are brilliant. The Irving Berlin Songbook contains some real memorable, beautiful pieces. Thanks for stirring our hearts with the group sing-along of God Bless America. I do hope you all get to perform this again. I know this was quite the undertaking for you along with production. My personal thank-you and big hugs for a beautiful, memorabl… Read more

Susan Alexander - Stanford DCI Partner Class of 2019Rocky! Your gift of 1000 days of yoga is the most meaningful and long lasting gift I have ever received. I will be forever grateful. I loved the questions and was pleased I had clear answers to most. I found them so thought provoking that I just read the first set to (family) as a new years gift. I’m looking forward to seeing you in person and giving you 2 years of hugs.… just a warning!
