3:45 PM - 5:00 PM    Intro to Martial Arts (afterschool program) - Intro to Martial Arts (PV)
The goal of the Makoto after-school “Intro to Martial Arts” is to build heroes… kids who can do amazing things. And we can’t do that by teaching a martial sport like Taekwondo or MMA, because martial arts are more than just kicking and punching to win a trophy. It’s about becoming a better person who will… Be purposeful Care from the inside out Attack life with intent. That is why the Intro to Martial Arts program is built on the martial art of Aiki-jujutsu. As one of the OLDEST martial arts, Aiki-jujutsu is a TOTAL martial art. One that focuses on developing the whole body, including the strength of will.Yes, your kids will learn how to punch, kick, and even throw with Aiki-jujutsu. But, they’ll also be developing body strength and stamina as the Intro to Martial Arts program teaches: Quality push-ups, pull-ups, and sit-ups. Basic self-defense techniques. Throws and lifts. All that translates to being able to jump higher… throw a ball farther… and kick a ball harder. It also means that your children will not only be strong, but FEEL strong. And with true strength of body and mind, they’ll be able to use their training when needed. They’ll be able to stand strong against bullies… be self-aware of situations… and make smart decisions.Cost of uniform and t-shirt are included in the fee.

In this 2 hour workshop you will receive a piece of clay and be walked through the process of making a pumpkin. You will be given underglaze to paint the pumpkin in whatever colors you choose. These pumpkins can be used indoors or outdoors, and are great because the animals can't eat them! Pieces will be fired and can be picked up once they are done. Wool Art Painting Workshop Wool watercolor is an exceptional art where the piece is created by layering dry wool layer by layer onto fabric (not needle felting). This unique technique allows you to create stunning art with 3-D effect, keeping all secrets of creation under the glass. Under the weight of glass these complex layers of wool appear unbelievably vibrant and rich. Working with wool is a meditative process with therapeutic effects where small motor skills exercise, calm down, and relax the nervous system. During the workshop Maria will lead you step by step and help you finish this richly colored artwork- ready to hang! Choose any picture or painting to recreate in wool.Welcome Home Gnome!

3:45 PM - 5:00 PM    Intro to Martial Arts (afterschool program) - Intro to Martial Arts (PV)
The goal of the Makoto after-school “Intro to Martial Arts” is to build heroes… kids who can do amazing things. And we can’t do that by teaching a martial sport like Taekwondo or MMA, because martial arts are more than just kicking and punching to win a trophy. It’s about becoming a better person who will… Be purposeful Care from the inside out Attack life with intent. That is why the Intro to Martial Arts program is built on the martial art of Aiki-jujutsu. As one of the OLDEST martial arts, Aiki-jujutsu is a TOTAL martial art. One that focuses on developing the whole body, including the strength of will.Yes, your kids will learn how to punch, kick, and even throw with Aiki-jujutsu. But, they’ll also be developing body strength and stamina as the Intro to Martial Arts program teaches: Quality push-ups, pull-ups, and sit-ups. Basic self-defense techniques. Throws and lifts. All that translates to being able to jump higher… throw a ball farther… and kick a ball harder. It also means that your children will not only be strong, but FEEL strong. And with true strength of body and mind, they’ll be able to use their training when needed. They’ll be able to stand strong against bullies… be self-aware of situations… and make smart decisions.Cost of uniform and t-shirt are included in the fee.

3:45 PM - 5:00 PM    Intro to Martial Arts (afterschool program) - Intro to Martial Arts (PV)
The goal of the Makoto after-school “Intro to Martial Arts” is to build heroes… kids who can do amazing things. And we can’t do that by teaching a martial sport like Taekwondo or MMA, because martial arts are more than just kicking and punching to win a trophy. It’s about becoming a better person who will… Be purposeful Care from the inside out Attack life with intent. That is why the Intro to Martial Arts program is built on the martial art of Aiki-jujutsu. As one of the OLDEST martial arts, Aiki-jujutsu is a TOTAL martial art. One that focuses on developing the whole body, including the strength of will.Yes, your kids will learn how to punch, kick, and even throw with Aiki-jujutsu. But, they’ll also be developing body strength and stamina as the Intro to Martial Arts program teaches: Quality push-ups, pull-ups, and sit-ups. Basic self-defense techniques. Throws and lifts. All that translates to being able to jump higher… throw a ball farther… and kick a ball harder. It also means that your children will not only be strong, but FEEL strong. And with true strength of body and mind, they’ll be able to use their training when needed. They’ll be able to stand strong against bullies… be self-aware of situations… and make smart decisions.Cost of uniform and t-shirt are included in the fee.

3:45 PM - 5:00 PM    Intro to Martial Arts (afterschool program) - Intro to Martial Arts (PV)
The goal of the Makoto after-school “Intro to Martial Arts” is to build heroes… kids who can do amazing things. And we can’t do that by teaching a martial sport like Taekwondo or MMA, because martial arts are more than just kicking and punching to win a trophy. It’s about becoming a better person who will… Be purposeful Care from the inside out Attack life with intent. That is why the Intro to Martial Arts program is built on the martial art of Aiki-jujutsu. As one of the OLDEST martial arts, Aiki-jujutsu is a TOTAL martial art. One that focuses on developing the whole body, including the strength of will.Yes, your kids will learn how to punch, kick, and even throw with Aiki-jujutsu. But, they’ll also be developing body strength and stamina as the Intro to Martial Arts program teaches: Quality push-ups, pull-ups, and sit-ups. Basic self-defense techniques. Throws and lifts. All that translates to being able to jump higher… throw a ball farther… and kick a ball harder. It also means that your children will not only be strong, but FEEL strong. And with true strength of body and mind, they’ll be able to use their training when needed. They’ll be able to stand strong against bullies… be self-aware of situations… and make smart decisions.Cost of uniform and t-shirt are included in the fee.
