Pilates with Ms. Savitsky
Grades 3-5
Children love to be active, so Pilates exercises for kids will seem like play to them! We will learn the basic Pilates moves with a kid-friendly twist. We will exercise to popular music and incorporate fun props such as the Magic Circles and mini-ball. After mastering the basic moves, kids will have opportunities to teach the class their favorite moves! Some of the benefits of pilates include better concentration, increased flexibility, better posture, increased self-esteem and confidence, reduced stress and strengthening of the core muscles. Pilates is great for kids involved in sports or dance to improve balance and coordination. All students will receive a special thick ½ inch pilates mat (5 colors to choose from), Magic Circle, and mini-ball for use in class and to keep at the end of the session! Ms. Savitsky is insured and is also a certified Mat Instructor through Balanced Body University.

Kidstruction Zone: Team Makers from Mad Science
Grades 1-5
This program, called Kidstruction Zone, is an especially appealing growth experience for the upper grades although it is specifically designed for participation from mixed ages. It consists of projects that provide opportunities for kids to work cooperatively and demonstrate extreme team spirit as they work towards a common goal! Kids form construction crews to gather materials, build structures, and then demolish their designs. As a result of this engaging after-school series, kids discover that collaborations and cooperation help them complete their construction projects promptly and precisely!
Note: There is an opportunity for a Parent Volunteer to assist with this class every week, in exchange for free tuition for their student. Please email Nicole Hurren at Nico5_5@ yahoo.com if you are interested in being the Parent Volunteer.
