Do you have a product/service you want to start selling online? During this four week session, I will teach you how to set-up your online store/website via Wix.com, set your pricing/inventory, payment methods, and everything you need to know to sell online! We will also go over branding/trademarks, online marketing techniques, and shipping methods. Let's start selling! Please bring a laptop and notebook to class.
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.

SUNRISE YOGA NEW
with Komal Bajaj Diggi, 200-hr certified Yoga teacher, trained in the Sivananda lineage. This is a Sivananda style Hatha Yoga class. Sivananda Yoga is a classical and holistic approach to Hatha Yoga that is based on a set format and structure which is carefully developed to promote physical, mental, emotional and spiritual well-being. This style of Yoga has not been modified or watered down. You should come to class with an open mind and an attitude to work slowly and methodically through a set sequence of poses. There are many benefits of an early morning Yoga class in the nature- it increases your metabolism, opens and stretches your muscles, increases your vital energy or life-force (Prana), but let’s just say that if you commit to yourself the first thing in the morning, you’ll find the physical, emotional, mental and spiritual benefits far outweigh the comfort of sleeping in. Please bring a Yoga Mat, wear comfortable clothing which allows for freedom of movement. Dress up in layers, bring a light cover-up blanket or shawl for initial and final relaxation. Please park and exit and your cars quietly. Location: Marlin Park CODE

ENHANCE FITNESS
Age 50+ or adults with Arthritis Enhance Fitness classes are taught by Sequoia YMCA sponsored by Sequoia Healthcare District. EnhanceFitness is an hour-long, three-days-per-week evidenced-based class designed to improve physical conditioning and to decrease risk of falling for older adults and those with arthritis. Studies show that regular physical activity improves overall health, memory, mood, balance, bone density, endurance, flexibility, and coordination. Class is progressive and can be done standing or seated. Please wear workout clothing and closed toed and closed heel shoes. “Joining the EnhanceFitness® class was the big turning point in my life after recovering from my stroke. I’ve come a long way from hardly being able to walk. But just as important as my physical progress, are the friendships I have developed with other class members.”
