Students of all abilities will be introduced to gentle yoga and functional movement exercises specifically designed to help reduce stress in body and mind. Practices for arthritis, osteoporosis, the lymph system, back care, and breathing will be explored. Please eat lightly before class, and bring a mat as well as a cushion or blanket. Students need to be able to get up and down off the floor by themselves or with the aid of a chair.

Through the movements of Tai Chi and relaxed breathing, you will cultivate, store & circulate your internal energy. The movements are non-impact, smooth and practiced very slowly at first. Western research has shown improvements in heart, bone and muscle strength, as well as large reductions in the effects of stress, and an improvement in overall balance, with regular practice. This is the 20th continuous year of Tai Chi classes through the Five Town Adult Education program!

These ancient Qigong practices have improved the health of millions of people over millennia. The air that we breathe is our most important source of nourishment. There is a mountain of research in western medicine confirming the value of a regular practice of improved breathing for many health conditions, and even more benefits in combination with these movements. Ba Duan Jin, Swimming Dragon & Wu Ming Qigongs will be introduced.

This class is for anyone who has never skied or who hasn't skied in years, wants to brush up on the basics, and have some fun this winter. We'll start from the beginning and build on the basics while enjoying different places to ski. We'll talk about equipment, techniques, and explore a different ski trail every week as conditions permit. You'll need your own equipment. The first meeting will begin at Camden Hills Regional High School field house beside the athletic fields. We may adjust the schedule based on snow coverage.

Winter will fly by if you come out to the Camden Snow Bowl and ski with us! We are offering ski lessons for adults, whether it's your first time, or you're feeling a bit rusty and just need some fine tuning and encouragement. Groups will be divided by ability. Our instructors are experienced, caring and fun! Registration fee for those up to 69 years old is $168 ($120 if you don't need to rent equipment), for those 70 and over, $120. Both include a lift ticket good for the whole day, lesson and rental. Note: If you miss a class, there will be no make up; however, if it is weather related and the Snow Bowl cancels, the class will be made up.

The #1 reason why so many people are sick and tired

This class teaches you how to fall asleep faster, stay asleep longer, stop snoring and wake up feeling rested.

You’d be shocked at how many health disorders are related to, if not caused by, faulty breathing during sleep. While many people feel there’s nothing they can do about snoring or waking frequently at night, they’d be just as surprised to know there’s more you can do about it than you think.

You and I know that you can’t possibly have your highest brain power, do your best performance, and function at your highest level when you are chronically fatigued and drained from a lack of deep restful sleep.
