On Day 246, we catch (and draw) mice in the act of making the soup, and on Day 3, we discover a spaghetti thief in our very own drawing! Pastels are an amazing medium—that with good direction can make an artist out of any rookie. You won’t believe the results from this fun-for-all, skill-enhancing workshop. No experience necessary.

Age 6-9 with Svetlana Tuchinsky, B.M., MA Education & 15+ yrs experience Learning to play the piano is FUN! We believe that piano lessons should be enjoyable and productive, not dull and isolated. By putting our students into small groups at the beginning levels, we give them a chance to share learning experience with others.

This creates a built-in support team of friends and stimulates children to practice. Students are grouped according to their age and ability. Activities include music-oriented games, EZ music theory, and ear-training. Classes are progressive. Each student has access to a piano or keyboard in class, however, a piano or keyboard is needed to practice at home. We hold a recital at the end of the session.

Lab Fee: $25 payable to instructor at 1st class. LIMITED ENROLLMENT. Classes with 3 children will be reduced to 35 minutes.

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.

The class is a deep dive into acting skills but previous experience is no means required.

BEGINNING YOGA WORKSHOP

FITNESS

Karen Stepp, Yoga Alliance RYT 200 These slow flow classes are designed to help you cultivate a mindfulness practice you can call upon to successfully navigate your life as it unfolds. To deepen your mind-body connection so you can turn toward your body with kindness. To increase your range and ease of movement, improve your alignment, stabilize your joints, and strengthen your core. And most of all to leave class filled with a deep sense of calm. Bring a sticky yoga mat, a blanket & two yoga blocks.

Location: RWS Library

with Kendra Bronstein, 200 hr Certified yoga instructor Yin Yoga is a quiet and simple practice, but not necessarily an easy practice. Yin yoga works deeply into our body. It targets our deepest tissues of the body, our connective tissues — ligaments, joints, bones, and the deep fascia networks of the body — rather than the muscles. Energetically, yin yoga improves the energy flow, enhancing the flow of chi in the organs. To be healthy, we need healthy organs as well as healthy muscles. Please bring your own water and mat. Blocks and blankets are welcome if you have them.

Props will not be supplied.

with Monique Story, ACE, SCW, AFAA, & Yoga Fit certified Have you always wanted to try yoga, but were not sure if it’s right for you? Please join Monique for a workshop to get a sampling of some of the asanas and poses to feel some of the tangible benefits of Yoga. Yoga is extremely effective in increasing flexibility, lubrication of the joints, ligaments and tendons, and has a positive effect on your body’s organs and in the detoxification of the muscles.
