Youth martial arts is an introductory class for children ages 6 to 12 years old.

Yoga is a spiritual discipline based on an extremely subtle science, which focuses on bringing harmony between mind and body. Each class starts with a flowing series to warm up the spine and heat up the body, followed by a series of held postures to build strength, stability, and stamina. Class ends with gentle stretches to improve flexibility.
Hustle is a fun activity that all ages can participate in. The lessons will include basic hustles that are easy for beginners and each week the hustles that were taught the prior week are reviewed as new hustles are added.
We utilize reading aloud and performing arts activities to boost confidence and literacy to empower the voices of our children and youth. Each session commences with vocal and articulation exercises for clear speech. Using microphones, our teaching artist and the children read books aloud, imparting positive values and emotional skills. Following the readings, we discuss the stories, engage in role-play to deepen comprehension, and conclude the session by learning and creating educational/motivational songs. Finally, we produce a private video documenting the program and culminate with a showcase for families and the community.
Empowering everyone the opportunity of free access to reading with activities, games, and storytelling with no limitations. Books are free to ALL who attend.
