LOCAL COVER STORY

by Shelley Hudson

When Stephen Zygo was teaching fourth grade and running his school’s K-8 theater department, Acting Academy for Kids was just a seed of an idea. As arts programs were being slashed due to widespread budget cuts, Zygo saw a need in the community and wanted to continue helping kids discover their inner performers. Stephen and his wife Maggie took a leap of faith, followed that passion and created an environment where students are free to explore musical theatre, acting, voice, dance and instrumental music. Acting Academy for Kids is now a burgeoning, multi-program organization, exposing young people to all aspects of the performing arts. The Academy's home base at the Camino Real Playhouse in San Juan Capistrano and satellite location at The Gate in Rancho Santa Margarita allow aspiring singers, actors, musicians, and set designers

Do you have a star-in-the-making at home? Acting Academy for Kids is still accepting registration for The Little Mermaid and Footloose— classes start April 15th. Check out ActingAcademyForKids.com for details and watch your star shine!

to try their hands at the real thing. In the Acting Academy’s Musical Theater Series, young cast members produce and perform popular Broadway musicals every 12 weeks. These seasonal programs each culminate in a full-scale production with professional lighting, sets, and sound. The Academy also offers Performing Arts Camps all summer long. These week-long sessions provide children and teens with a “fulltheater immersion experience,” capped off with a performance for family and friends. Campers have the option to sign up for one week, the whole summer, or anywhere in between. “Summer camp is the perfect ‘test-drive’ for a child who’s interested. It’s a great opportunity for kids to interact outside their peer groups as well,” enthuses Maggie. With the popular camps at the Camino Real Playhouse and the launch of camps at San Clemente's Cabrillo Playhouse this summer, the Zygos hope to get more kids involved than ever before. In addition to its seasonal and summer camp programs, the Acting Academy provides afterschool acting classes (group and private), vocal training, and guitar and piano lessons. Fundamental concepts like improv, line memorization, character development, professional singing techniques and voice-over training give the student a performing arts foundation that helps develop self-esteem. “Acting Academy for Kids helped transform my son from a shy athlete into a confident stage performer,” says one appreciative mom, “It’s a delight to see him willingly hang up his cleats one day per week to participate in the arts.” The Zygos’ Acting Academy is more than a livelihood for the couple—it’s a true labor of love and a way for Stephen to combine his “twin passions.” Stephen and Maggie both have advanced degrees in education and they assert that the quality of the faculty sets their programming apart. “Our teachers are trained performing artists AND credentialed educators,” says Maggie, “They understand how kids learn.”

Maggie and Stephen Zygo

Acting ACADEMY for kids Serving ages 4-17

ActingAcademyForKids.com info@ActingAcademyForKids.com 714.747.4915 Stephen and Maggie pride themselves on the authenticity of the experience they offer as well. “We want the kids to see the real deal—an active dressing room, staging, lighting design, and set creation in a genuine working theater. Hands-on learning helps kids understand that each role is vital to the success of a show.” With feet firmly planted in both the arts and in education, the Zygos have taken their show(s) on the road with their “school services” concept. They collaborate with schools, churches, and community centers, administering enrichment programs for organizations that don’t have the staff or resources to develop their own. Stephen gives much credit for the Acting Academy’s excellence to the system of parents and volunteers who help bring each production to life. “It takes an army of crew, costumers, lighting and sound technicians, set designers, box office corps, and photographers to make a theater come alive” he says. “We’re proud that we provide teachers with jobs in the performing arts and that our students find friends, fun, and confidence along the way,” Stephen continues, “At Acting Academy for Kids, we aim for young performers to have all the opportunities possible to learn to present themselves, speak publicly, showcase their work, and understand the sheer teamwork involved in an endeavor like this.”

ask dr. julie? Julie A. DAvis, MA, PsyD Licensed Clinical Psychologist

Q: I have been going through a divorce for the past year and my family and friends think I am depressed. It has been a very difficult year and I am not sleeping very well. I have to remind myself to eat, I am overwhelmed, I can’t focus at work, I’m exhausted and cry most days. Will this pass after the divorce is over or should I get some help?

Restrictions apply. One per customer. Excludes specialty items. Expires 4/30/13.

A: Going through a divorce is rated the 2nd most stressful life event we can go through following the death of a spouse. It is common to suffer from some symptoms of depression during and after a divorce. Depression is considered a medical condition and symptoms can range from mild, moderate to severe, and should always be assessed by your medical doctor, mental health specialist or a psychiatrist.

What you should look for When determining if you have symptoms of depression:

1. Depressed Mood 2. Diminished interest or pleasure in all or almost all activities 3. Significant weight loss or weight gain, or increase or decrease in appetite 4. Insomnia (can’t sleep) or Hypersomnia (sleeping too much) 5. Fatigue or loss of energy 6. Agitation 7. Feelings of worthlessness or inappropriate guilt 8. Diminished concentration or indecisiveness 9. Recurrent thoughts of death or suicide

Call Dr. Davis for a complimentary 20 minute phone consultation: 949.287.2871

If you have any of these symptoms for at least two weeks, you need to be evaluated by a medical or mental health professional immediately. When we are under stress and emotionally overwhelmed, we may not have the best judgment about our own well-being. Depression can be like a run away train and become worse if you do nothing! The most alarming red-flag for a clinician is when a patient is feeling HOPELESS! This can easily lead to suicidal thoughts and this person needs help immediately. During a divorce men and woman often present differently with Depression: Men may have symptoms 1-9 above, and might be performing less at work, unusually quiet, unable to talk about things, excessive worrying, irritable, and complaining about physical symptoms. They may also cope by using drugs and alcohol. Women with symptoms 1-9 above may ruminate (go over and over problems), have mood swings, cry often, be self-critical and feel excessive guilt and shame. They often cope with alcohol and overeating. Positive steps to getting your life back after Divorce: 1. Get professional help with your depressive symptoms and health issues; 2. Create a support network; 3. Create boundaries with your ex; 4. Be kind to yourself; 5. Accept your new life and take responsibility for your own happiness! Please call me for a LocaL dish readers receive free consultation if you are feeling depressed or need help with Divorce Recovery - this can be a very painful and difficult time and I am here to support you through it. —Dr. Julie A.

So What’S the Deal With D?

No Appointment Necessary

In addition to preventing osteoporosis, vitamin D is invaluable for many other reasons. Here are three recently discovered benefits of vitamin D. 1. Vitamin D may play a role in the prevention of cancer. Studies have recently demonstrated that vitamin D and several of its analogues decrease intestinal tumor cell growth in animal models. New large-scale trials are underway to clarify the role of vitamin D in the prevention of various other cancers as well.

Free Youth

Physicals Anytime at the San Juan Capistrano Location Evenings and Sundays only at other locations Walk-Ins & New Patients Welcome Exam only. Parent must be present. Bring physical form.

2. Vitamin D helps improve type 2 diabetes. Vitamin D has been shown to prevent increases in blood sugar concentration and insulin resistance, it enhances insulin sensitivity, and has also been shown to reduce systolic blood pressure in type 2 diabetic patients. 3. Low vitamin D levels are associated with obesity. A Norwegian study involving more than 25,000 adults showed that not only were lower serum Vitamin D levels associated with a higher prevalence of obesity, they were specifically linked with the development of obesity. Vitamin D is readily available in supplement form and is well-tolerated. Not sure if you are deficient in vitamin D? A simple blood test is all it takes to determine your vitamin D level. — Monica Harms, MD

SUMMER CAMP GUIDE

2013

SUMMER CAMP GUIDE There's a tidal wave of camps getting ready to make a splash this summer. Gear up, get on board and dive in to an adventurous, active & healthy break from school. Our 2013 Summer Camp Guide provides a handy rundown on loads of local fun throughout south OC. Register now to take advantage of early sign-up discounts... before your camper's fave sells out.

Acting Academy for Kids

AA4K’s Performing Arts Camp is offered in two South OC locations this year—Camino Real Playhouse in San Juan Capistrano and Cabrillo Playhouse in San Clemente. Daily classes in music, art, acting, and dance immerse kids aged 4 to 13 in an authentic performing experience. The weeklong camps are each guided by professional educators and culminate in a student-centered production with sets, costumes, and lights. Ten distinct weeklong programs run from June 24th to August 30th. The “core camp” rate is $250 per week with early-bird and after-camp enrichment options as well. Go to ActingAcademyforKids.com for details and production schedules. (See page 10)

Brain Builders

Brain Builders puts the “STEAM” in education—science, technology, engineering, arts, and math. Weekly camps starting June 18th introduce children ages 5 to 14 to concepts including energy, thermodynamics, gravity, robotics, hydraulics, animation, and story-writing. Young builders test their skills and projects against equipment like the Bridge Crusher, Earthquake Simulator, and the 20’ Gravity Race Track. The camps are set up like classes and half-day and full-day options are offered. Get fee info and registration details at BrainBuildersEd.org and put on your thinking cap! Use promo code "thelocaldish" to receive 10% off any camp. (See page 31)

Capo Beach Christian school

Summer Quest is Capo Beach Christian School’s answer to the dreaded, “I’m bored!” This faith-based camp is run by the school’s faculty, with a low childteacher ratio in a safe and loving environment. Outdoor fun like jaunts to the beach, pool, or park and field trips to Legoland, county fairs, and water parks keep the youngsters busy all summer long. Character building, new friendships, and creative play are emphasized. Summer Quest offers camps from June 24th to August 23rd. At only $190 per week, this is one of OC’s most affordable camps. Half-day and drop-in rates are also a great value. To register your child, visit CapoBeachChristianSchool.org. (See page 31) 26 APRIL 2013

City of Dana Point

Dana Point’s Recreation Department has filled its calendar with every camp under the sun. Future artists, engineers, gymnasts, singers, dancers, and athletes can sign up for one or more programs through the City’s website at DanaPoint.org. Sessions for ages 3 – 14 start June 17th and include Ceramics, Young Rembrandts, LEGO Engineering, Soccer, Basketball, Golf, Gymnastics, MultiSport, and Musical Theater. Professional instructors show your little phenom the ropes of the pottery wheel, soccer field, basketball court, and theater. Weekly rates range from $120 to $170 per week and locations vary. (See page 30)

City of Laguna Niguel

From June 17th to August 16th, campers from 3½ to 14 can participate in the City of Laguna Niguel’s age group camps in the pristine Crown Valley Community Park. The youngest participants learn through dramatic play, traditional camp songs, and nature exploration while making new friends. Children who’ve completed kindergarten experience activities like dancing, swimming, group games, and crafts. With older students (4th – 8th grade), the emphasis is on cooperation, arts, strategy games, and fun Thursday excursions. Trained camp counselors supervise and facilitate. Younger kids attend camp half-days and school-agers participate all day. Fees are extremely reasonable and depend on the camper’s age and number of days in attendance. Check out CityofLagunaNiguel.org for more. (See page 33)

DanMan’s Music School

Not your father’s band camp! DanMan’s five-day intensive workshops let campers create and name their own rock bands and put on a real show for family and friends. Instruction on guitar, piano, drums, bass, and vocals is provided by inspiring professional music teachers. Exercises include creating set lists, making band posters, and rehearsing for the big gig. The cost is $225 per camp, but if you register before June 30th, you can get in for $199. The jamming begins July 8th at DanMan’s Music School. Bring in Danman's ad from this issue before April 30th to receive $25 off. Check out Danmans.com or call 949.496.6556 for more information. (See page 32)

The Surfin Cowboy Riding High

by Cathy Villafana

Giant cacti and surfboards may seem an unlikely combination, but not at The Surfin Cowboy Sports Bar & Grill in Capistrano Beach. Since opening its doors in late January, this establishment has created a big splash with locals - marrying gourmet comfort food with a casual coastal vibe. Located on Doheny Park Road, near the neighborhood post office, the restaurant's interior was extensively renovated and now houses a main dining room, full bar with dining area, lounge area, and a beer garden with a fireplace. Executive Chef Sima Ganaba, formerly of the five-star Resort at Pelican Hill, has created a menu that includes a unique blend of ingredients and flavors that tip their hat to the Old West, yet with a clearly modern result. Get things rolling with one or more of the delicious appetizers - like the Fried Mac N Cheese, the Crispy Pork Belly, or the Sticky & Sweet Wings. From there, you can't go wrong with an O.G. Burger, a Black & Blue Burger, a bowl of hearty chili or any one of the salads topped with your choice of blackened chicken, salmon or grilled prawns. Entrées, served after 4 p.m., include a 14-ounce Porterhouse Steak, Spice-Crusted Scallops, and Shrimp and Grits. In addition to its regular menu, The Surfin Cowboy also serves brunch on Saturday and Sunday. For a traditional breakfast, opt for the Steak & Eggs or omelette, or treat yourself to the decadent French toast, served two ways. Not to be outdone by its food, general manager and master Mixologist David Valiante has designed cocktails for every type of thirst. Early customer favorites include the Widow’s Kiss, the Buckin’ Bronco and the South Side. The Surfin Cowboy opens at 11 a.m. Monday through Friday and 9 a.m. on Saturday and Sunday for brunch. It closes nightly at 2 a.m. Happy Hour runs from 3 to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday with daily food and drink specials. Entertainment starts at 9 p.m. with live bands and DJs, along with acoustic music on Sunday nights. Yeehaw!

FOOD: My Best Friend

AND WORST ENEMY Desiree’s Story From the time I was a young child, food was never just food for me. It was my love, support, and comfort. It was my best friend. However, it was also the reason why I hated myself and did not treat my body in a healthy way. My body had become my worst enemy. It was my little secret. I used food for dealing with every situation of my life. As an adult, most people saw me as a very successful and happy woman. Behind closed doors, I was an entirely different person. You name it and I did it with food. My weight determined how I felt about myself instead of who I was as a person. Food consumed my life. I didn’t understand why I couldn’t stop the addictive

A caring approach to out of control eating

www.HungryHeart.org

cycle I had going on with the binging, exercising, constant diets, and starving myself. I hated myself more and more each day. I felt like the biggest failure in the world and felt very alone. I finally learned that I did not have a problem with food. I had other issues in my life. Food had become my way of blocking out my discomfort or avoiding my feelings inside. I can now say that for over thirteen years, I have been healthy and strong and no longer need food to deal with my life and emotions. Food is no longer a struggle for me. It is an incredible feeling after all those years of hurting and disliking myself. I can honestly say that this has been the most rewarding thing I have accomplished in my life. I am thrilled to finally take care of myself: mind, body, and spirit.

If you have answered yes to 3 or more of the above questions the Hungry Heart program can help you end your unhealthy relationship with food.
