FINANCE 101 FOR KIDS NEW

Age 10-14 with Future Geeks Have you ever considered that there exists no formal education when it comes to money and finances? Our schools teach our kids everything from math and science to music and art; yet there is no program or even a single course dedicated to teaching our kids how to handle money, how to save, or how to earn money. Yet, the ability to manage money from the early age provides a foundation for a prosperous future. This class fills the void left by our school system. Your child will learn all about finances in a fun, playful environment. By the end of the class they will know the basics of the US financial system, ways to save money, and ways to make their money work for them. Lab Fee: $30 payable at 1st class

FUN PROGRAMMING WITH PYTHON - LEVEL 1

Age 9-14 with Future Geeks Equally popular with students and professionals, Python is easy to pick up yet powerful and versatile. It’s a great first programming language to learn because it yields itself well to absolute beginners. The best way to learn programming is to get your feet wet with coding, and that’s how this class is designed to work. It starts off by introducing the basic programming concepts, such as variables, statements, loops, and expressions. It will gradually build up to more advanced tasks, such as building basic projects and games. Learning to code is easier if you’re having fun, so we’ve tried to make this class as much fun as possible! Lab Fee: $20 payable at 1st class Location: Sandpiper $456 • 12 classes CODE

VAULTING

Age 4-14 with Woodside Vaulters www.woodsidevaulters.org Equestrian vaulting combines elements of gymnastics and dance performed to music on a moving horse. The horse moves in a circle on a longe line and is controlled by a longeur. Vaulters begin on stationary barrels and progress to performing on the horse at the walk and trot; experienced vaulters perform at the canter. The club emphasizes horsemanship, safety, team-building, communication skills, fitness, and relationship between vaulter and horse. Woodside Vaulters, founded in 1990, is one of the largest and most successful vaulting clubs in the United States. What to wear? You should wear the following to class: Ballet, water, tennis, vaulting shoes or other soft shoes, T-shirt with shorts, leggings, or sweat pants and bring layers if it’s cold outside (clothes should not be too loose). Long hair should be pulled away from the face with longer hair in a ponytail or bun. Location: The Horse Park at Woodside, 3674 Sand Hill Road, Woodside

Age 4-6 In the 60-minute Tiny Tot classes, children learn to be comfortable on and around horses. Filled with confidence building games, these classes focus on basic balance exercises. Vaulters also learn basic horsemanship and safety. No prior horse experience necessary. CODE

BECOME MORE EFFECTIVE WHEN YOU SPEAK - NEW TO ANY GROUP

with Leonard Sklar, speaker for over 30 years to audiences in 200 cities in all 50 states. We have all heard terrible speakers. Some are nervous about speaking, they mumble, speak too fast, don't repeat questions, bite off the end of sentences, and much more. These, and many other speaking limitations often occur regardless of the audience, which could be a staff meeting, a presentation in front of a large group, or any other speaking situation. Len Sklar has worked with groups as well as individuals on this topic that we have all experienced, whether as listener, speaker, or both. You will not be called upon to speak in front of the group unless you wish to do so. CODE

Family Members Age 11+ with Paige Tyson. Questions about class content? Call 209.532.6269 Beginning: Your dog is taught to sit, down, stay, come, heel and easy (walking nicely at the end of the leash without pulling). The dog is taught to move freely and easily with the collar, so one day you barely have to use it! The dog is also taught to perform things and to willingly do or not do things, not just be prevented from doing them. Verbal and/or physical praise from owner is given. This builds a relationship between owner and dog. Any specific problems you are having will be addressed and cured in class or by a lifestyle change at home. You will need a 6 foot comfortable leash. Instructor will supply the nylon collar.

FROM STRESS TO FREEDOM AND BEYOND

with Hoover Wong This class aims to provide effective methodologies for dissolving stress and to help you lead a life free from emotional baggage. Stress comes in many forms, we will address the core source of stress. We’ll learn one of the fastest ways to significantly reduce stress. Learn fundamental skills that put you in the stress-free-zone, and how to stay in the zone. Our mental chatter is like a monkey mind that won’t stop talking and jumping around all the time. We’ll learn some great ways to turn these jittering thoughts into calmness. We are all somewhat controlled by our trapped emotions (old and new). When our ‘buttons’ are pushed, we’ll quickly get upset or stressed out. We’ll talk about how to clear these ‘emotional triggers'. Then, we’ll tap into the potential of our minds and get a glimpse of the expanded awareness and limitless possibilities. Please bring a pen & a notebook. CODE
