Stretching & Guided Meditation will be split between 20 minutes of light stretching followed by 25 minutes of guided meditation practice with instructor Lynn Cohen.
Basic Martial Arts with Scott is a fun way for kids to get some energy and learn the basics of karate and other martial arts. The 45-minute class will include guided instruction of the practice, as well as potential for some interactive teaching through screen sharing at the end if time allows. Dress comfortably and give yourself enough space to move around in.
Young Rembrandts will continue to take registration for online drawing lessons. The program is free. Register by visiting parksandrec.middletownbucks.org/live/ParksRec/portal/Home, logging in to your account/creating an account, and registering for “Young Rembrandts Virtual Classes Session 1.” If you have any registration issues, email [email protected] for assistance. Registration will be open throughout the three weeks of the program. Classes are 45 minutes and can be used up to five times until the next class link is sent out.
