Many of the weekly classes the Workhouse has to offer are geared toward the intermediate to advanced student and art educator. We understand how difficult it can be to find an inexpensive way to renew, so the Workhouse is now extending a 20% discount on all weekly class registrations for public school teachers. Let us help you earn points the fun, artistic way by enrolling in a weekly Workhouse Arts Center class today! Rules: 1) When a weekly class meets its minimum enrollment of four students, the discount of 20% off tuition can be awarded. The class must be a weekly class. This discount will not apply to workshops. 2) The teacher must provide a scanned copy of his/her teacher ID card upon registration to qualify for the discount. 3) Any teacher wishing to use a Workhouse Arts Center class as professional development points towards recertification must submit a letter of intent to the Workhouse Arts Center Education Department one week prior to the start of the class and have prior approval of his/her school administrator. 4) Upon completion of the course, a letter explaining professional development goals met, and a receipt of registration will be mailed to the teacher.

Today, there is renewed interest in age old traditions such as yoga and meditation. No longer viewed with suspicion, mind-body programs are now established at prestigious medical schools in the United States and around the world. Classes in this program follow continuous eight week sessions, and most classes may be joined at any time- no need to wait for the next session to begin! There are classes for all ages, and since most classes are self-paced they are appropriate for all skill levels. New classes and workshops are always being added and the schedule may change every eight weeks.
