More Special Interest FROM STRESS TO FREEDOM AND BEYOND
NEW
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, but the main thing that creates stress is our inner resistance to ‘what-is’. By truly accepting what-is inside, one could reduce stress immediately. Though, this is not a do-nothing attitude, but on the contrary – doing what needs to get done with a cool and sharp mind. We will go over exercises to dis-identify negativity getting into our minds and to clear trapped negative emotions. We’ll then talk about anchoring one’s life on solid principles to always stay calm. Potential topics also include: How to lose 7 pounds in less than 3 weeks (without eating less and exercising more) and How to quit smoking (or any bad habits) effectively without willpower. Your mind is so much more powerful than you know. Here’s the proof and how you could benefit from it. CODE

BEGINNING & INTERMEDIATE DOG OBEDIENCE (DOGS 4 MONTHS +)
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. Intermediate: This class will instruct students in off-leash control. This is done with the addition of a 30 foot long line. ALL Dogs must have current rabies and distemper vaccinations. A 6 foot comfortable leash is required. Special nylon choke collar included in fee. Minimum owner age is 11 years old. Questions?

YIN YOGA
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. Location: RMCC CODE

Age 5-9 For more information, please visit www.skyhawks.com Skyhawks Golf focuses on building the confidence of young athletes by teaching proper technique to refine essential skills of the game. Golf is a challenging and lifelong sport, so young athletes need proper focus on the fundamentals of form, swinging, putting, and body positioning. To assist in this training, Skyhawks has adopted the SNAG (Starting New At Golf) system as its curriculum. Developed by PGA professionals, SNAG is specifically designed for the entry-level player; SNAG simplifies instruction so that young players can make an easy and effective transition onto the golf course. SNAG utilizes a set of equipment designed for beginning golfers, including oversized plastic club heads and “mini tennis balls” to help build confidence and to have fun. No need to bring your own clubs--all equipment is provided. Please apply sunscreen prior to arrival, bring snacks and lots of water. CODE
