After a successful pilot run, The Calais School is excited to announce that the After School Program is back!
The Calais After School Program offers students a fun and interactive outlet for social interaction, physical fitness, and of course mind and body alignment. Starting on October 10th, 2018, this 5 week program will be held every Wednesday from 3:00-4:15pm.
Those who participated last year know how instrumental instructor Steve Guttman was in making the program so successful. With over 25 years of health and wellness related experience including personal training and yoga he is highly trained and certified in many areas including: nutrition, personal training & fitness, Yoga, Qigong and more.
Sessions will be focused on fitness, personal growth, development and social skills. Activities will range from Yoga, QiGong (a combination of aligning the body, mind, body for optimal health in the form of martial arts), Brain Gym and Calisthenics. Each class typically begins with a warm up of breathing and Qigong based movements while listening to meditative music.
Participants can expect to learn a lot during each class as Steve loves to share his wealth of knowledge about the physical and mental benefits of different body movements and breathing techniques. Students will even learn how to incorporate them at home and during the school day.
Please send your participating child to school with sneakers and appropriate clothing. The program cost is $50 -Official dates are 10/10, 10/24, 11/7, 11/14, 11/28.
