HELPFUL TIPS

1.

•

Have your class names and numbers ready to go in advance.

•

Ensure you are aware of any prerequisites that may be required for a class, as participants who are not at the correct level may be withdrawn by the Head Pro or Coordinator before the start date.

•

The system will not notify you if you have registered in courses that run on the same day and time, so be aware of class conflicts.

•

If the class you want is full when you try to register, add yourself to the waitlist. As spaces become available, waitlisted participants will automatically be registered for the program or facility and be notified by email. Please ensure your email address is up to date and remove yourself from waitlists if no longer needed.

•

Be sure to familiarize yourself with all cancellation policies listed on each page of this brochure and on the details for each class in GameTime. A reminder email will be sent to registrants in advance of the cancellation deadline for the activity. It is up to the member to cancel within the designated timeline.

FULL YEAR SESSION

Tuesday, January 4, 2022 — to — Sunday, March 13, 2022

Tuesday, January 4, 2022 — to — Sunday, June 26, 2022

STATUTORY HOLIDAYS

UNDERAGE REGISTRATION POLICY

Group programs are not scheduled to take place on statutory holidays or weekends when a statutory holiday falls on a Monday or Friday, and program fees have been calculated accordingly. Exceptions include group fitness classes. Holiday weekend schedules and hours will be posted online at arbutusclub.com one week prior to the holiday.

Children underage for a specific program must receive approval from the Coordinator/Director of that program before registering. If permission is given, underage participants must register with the Recreation Services Desk directly so that we may bypass the established age restriction. Please note that receiving advanced approval does not guarantee a spot in the program.

CLUB COACHING POLICY

PROGRAM APPROVALS

The use of professional instructors or coaches from outside the Club is not permitted. Only those who have been contracted by the Club may teach on Club premises.

Some programs require approval from the Coordinator/Director of the activity area, prior to registering, to ensure participants are at a required level for the class.

If a member is incorrectly registered for a class, the Coordinator/Director reserves the right to remove them and recommend another class more suitable for their age or skill level.

PROGRAM FEES All program and related fees will be billed to your member account. Regular weekly programs will be billed monthly for the duration of the program.

Workshops and short-term activities will be billed in the month they occur.

ACTIVITY & SPORT ASSOCIATION FEES Some program areas are required to have members register with their provincial sport governing association for the purpose of insurance coverage to participate in tournaments and events. These fees may be billed seasonally or yearly and are listed on the program pages for which they apply. Some areas also have activity fees, billed seasonally or yearly, and are used to pay for special equipment, gifts, awards, seasonal parties, events, and other program enhancements.

P R OGR A MS B R O CHU R E | W INT E R 2 02 2

REGISTRATION WAITLISTS During the initial days of each registration period, it is recommended to make use of the wait list feature if you do not secure your preferred program dates and times. As space becomes available for the program, waitlisted participants will automatically be registered and notified by email. If you no longer want a spot in the class, please remove yourself or your child from the waitlist, or from the class upon receipt of the notification. You may also contact the Recreation Services desk to cancel out of any classes or waitlists.

MISSED/MAKE-UP CLASSES If you miss a class for any reason, it is the decision of the Coordinator/Director of each activity area, as to whether they can accommodate a make-up lesson. Most activity areas do not offer this option as it is disruptive to participants registered and is challenging for staff to accommodate.

general info CHILDREN UNDER 8 YEARS

ACTIVITY COMMITTEES

A parent/caregiver (16yrs+) must always accompany children under 8 years old while in the Club. You must drop off and pick up your child for all programs as children under 8 years of age will not be released from the program on their own.

The success of our activity areas is in large part due to the contributions made by volunteer Committee members. If you would like to participate in one of our Activity Committees, please fill out an application form available at Club Reception or email Sue Snow at ssnow@arbutusclub.com.

ALLERGY AWARE Recreation Services staff are allergy aware and request that parents do not pack snacks for their children that contain common allergens, such as peanuts. If your child has an allergy, you would like us to be aware of, please contact the Recreation Services Desk and we will notify the instructor.

GUEST POLICY Recreation programs and events are restricted to members only, unless otherwise noted. A limited number of guests may be permitted to attend 25 Year Club events, special youth events and various one-time workshops, if space permits before the event date.

PROGRAM FEEDBACK We welcome your feedback about our programs, camps, services, and events at any time in person, by phone or by email. We also have an evaluation form available at arbutusclub.com/services/recreation if you would like to complete it anonymously.

Duplicate Bridge is a fun and stimulating game for people of all ages. It extends the classic card game to a multi-table competition where the luck of the deal is mostly eliminated, retaining the social aspects of the game and combining them with new strategies and fun for all. There are usually 6-9 tables playing, and the Duplicate Bridge Director often provides an entertaining written lesson after the bridge session, as well as directing all tournaments and games. Light refreshments are provided on the first day of each season.

Drop-in participants are welcome at $9.00/session.

dance THE DANCE PROGRAM The Arbutus Club Academy of Dance cultivates young dancers, ages 2.5-19 years from their first step into a dance studio through their pre-professional training.

Students discover their individual artistic voices in a creative environment with the guidance of an internationally recognized faculty. The personal attention encourages students to mature as dancers, grow as individuals and enrich their passion for the art form.

MARLENE HERSHFIELD Dance Director mhershfield@arbutusclub.com Marlene Hershfield, A.I.S.T.D, is one of Vancouver’s most respected dance educators.

Some of her students have gone on to notable dance careers. She has an extensive background in teaching ballet, jazz and national as well as choreography and has adjudicated at numerous festivals. She brings decades of wisdom, and leadership to the dance program. Marlene is proud of her dynamic team of experienced teachers who are sure to inspire your children to explore and enjoy dance in many exciting forms.

PROGRAM INFORMATION Students enrolling in dance, with the exception of preschool classes, are required to make a full-year commitment as classes are progressive and depend on weekly development. Class placement is determined at the teacher’s discretion. There will not be a recital dance in exam classes.

PROGRAM ATTENDANCE While we want our students to have fun, dancing is a commitment. Students registered in dance are expected to remain in the program for the full term.

We ask that parents ensure students arrive on time, attend every class, and inform us in advance by email at mhershfield@arbutusclub.com if they have to miss a class for medical, illness or other reasons.

SMALL CLASSES All classes require a minimum of five participants to run at the listed price. If a class has fewer students, the teacher may offer the class with an additional charge. Members will be contacted prior to incurring any additional costs.

BALLET EXAMS Exams motivate both serious and recreational dancers to develop discipline, confidence and a sense of achievement. Students are examined by the Imperial Society of Teachers of Dancing, London, England, in either the Imperial Society of Dance or the Cecchetti Society. Usually held in June and administered by international examiners, exams involve additional expenses such as entry fees and outfits. Instructors determine which dancers are ready to be examined. Examination candidates must register for at least two ballet classes per week from the grade one level. Students on pointe require a minimum of three lessons per week.

ART CLASSES

REGISTRATION

The Arbutus Club art program welcomes young members of all skill levels and offers a variety of programs that will help them develop an appreciation for the visual arts by exploring different mediums, techniques, and ideas.

Our art classes are taught by Lena Savic, who has been with the Arbutus Club for over 13 years. Lena studied Art History at Belgrade University and Fine Arts at Langara College and ECUAD. As an instructor, Lena believes art is a great way to develop one’s creativity, as well as focus, cognition and social and emotional development and health. Sketchbooks, materials, and tools will be provided and included in the cost.

Private music lessons are booked for the full year from September to June. Weekly lessons of 30, 45 or 60 minutes are available and scheduled at the mutual availability of student and teacher. Regular attendance and practice between lessons is important to students’ success. Students new to the program can either contact the teacher of their choice or Megan Gallant at mgallant@arbutusclub.com or 604-269-8809 for help with selecting a teacher.

LESSON DELIVERY The music teachers will follow the guidelines and recommendations of the BC Registered Music Teachers’ Association and public health officials to ensure the health and safety of students, parents, and teachers.

Music lessons will be available online or in-person. The method of delivery will be dependent upon Teacher and student preferences.

MISSED LESSONS At the discretion of the teacher, one lesson from September-December, and one lesson from January-June, may be made up due to illness, if a minimum of 24 hours’ notice is provided. There are no credits or make-ups for lessons missed for sports, vacation or other leisure activities. Teachers will hand out a department calendar at the first lesson, with information about term session dates and holidays for reference.

ART ZONE (6-12 YRS) Artists will explore a variety of techniques using watercolour paints, pastels, polymer clay, mixed media, pencils and acrylic while creating art in different genres (landscape, portraits, still life, abstract). They will draw, paint, collage and sculpt while learning about fundamental art concepts. Children will learn how to express themselves creatively, how to build, communicate and structure their ideas visually, and how to free their imagination. Most importantly, engaging in visual arts builds critical thinking skills, focus, patience, confidence, resourcefulness. In Art Zone we cultivate a mutually supportive, collaborative and friendly environment.

volleyball The Arbutus Club’s volleyball program will teach children the fundamentals in a skill based, recreational and non-competitive environment. Highly skilled Smash Volleyball coaches will lead this co-ed program and teach all aspects of the volleyball through ageappropriate skills, drills, and games.

DROP IN VOLLEYBALL

BRIAN HIEBERT Volleyball Head Coach brian@smashvolleyball.com Brian is passionate about creating positive experiences for children and coaches so that they learn teamwork, humility, and self-confidence through volleyball. Brian fell in love with the game in grade 8 while playing in Port Moody on his school’s beach volleyball court and never slowed down. At 20 years of age, he moved to Toronto to train with the national team and compete on the world stage in beach volleyball. A student of the game, he is now an international referee with a goal to represent Canada at the 2024 and 2028 Olympics. After 20 years of beach volleyball, Brian found his way back to indoor volleyball as a coach at West Point Grey Academy and in 2018 he co-founded Smash Volleyball.

For inquiries or questions about Volleyball programs, contact Megan Gallant, Assistant Recreation Services Manager, at mgallant@ arbutusclub.com or 604-269-8909.

All levels of play are welcome for children 13 years and older and adults.
