Cardio Sculpt
Step has been a fitness favorite for 18 years for very good reasons. While it is designed to strengthen knees, its a fabulous cardiovascular workout. Step uses many more muscles than any other type of cardio training, thus reducing the risk of overuse injuries. Plus, the effort made to learn the moves is actually wonderful for the brain. While this class is designed for people who are familiar with Step, anyone who is interested should sign up as you will become quite comfortable with the moves within a few weeks. Walter

It aims to expand and refine the use of the self through awareness. You will often be lying down yet sometimes sitting, kneeling or standing. You will be outwardly moving the whole time, while simultaneously exploring a given inward focus. You will also learn more about anatomy. Feldenkrais increases your awareness of yourself.

Are You Taking a Swimming Class?

Arlington County is proud to provide lessons that are based on the Red Cross Learn-to-Swim Program. When registering please make sure participants can complete all necessary prerequisites prior to beginning the class. Students who are not at the right level hinder the classes ability to function. Everyone progresses at different speeds, so it is typical to repeat courses. Public Health requires pools to close when contaminated. Swim diapers or snug-fitting plastic pants must be worn by anyone who is incontinent. Also please do not eat within 30 minutes of swimming. When registering for a class you are ONLY allowed to swim during the class time, there will be no swimming allowed to class participants before or after the class session unless the customer pays a general admission or has a monthly or annual pass.

The second part covers how to effectively combine these components. The third part of the program will be application. The goal of the class is to give participants superior personal safety skills and superior fitness. While application of techniques will go beyond theory, we do not welcome high impact and aggressive behavior.

Signing Smart strategies integrate more than 150 American Sign Language signs into songs, games and activities developed to engage very young children and their parents. Research has shown that using American Sign Language with hearing babies and toddlers allows communication and spoken language to happen earlier and faster, while reducing frustration and tantrums. Most children have two to three words by 12 months, whereas Signing Smart TM children typically have 25 signs and 16 words! Most children start combining words into two-word sentences by 20 months, whereas Signing Smart TM children typically do this by 11-14 months and some as early as six months! The National Institute of Health even found a 12-point IQ increase for eight year-olds who used signs as young children. More research, class pictures and family quotes at www.ParentChildU.com.

Fall Class Registration Times Change!

Web
In an effort to better serve the growing number of Arlingtonians who enjoy our classes, the Department of Parks and Recreation is moving up and dividing class registration times. On August 14, resident online registration opens only for Gymnastics classes at 7:00 a.m. and for ALL OTHER classes online registration begins at 7:30 a.m. This change reflects two issues. First, the number of people registering for recreation classes during the first minutes of the online registration has increased by 40% over the last year. Weve made a number of technical changes to support this
growth; we hope that separating gymnastics, which constitutes close to half of the classes, from the other offerings will improve the speed of the online system and reduce phone call wait times. Whats more, many people asked that we move the entire registration process earlier as the old opening time conflicted with many families general morning rush. Parks and Recreation continues to look for ways to make class registration easier (such as the new online registration portal) and support the communitys interest in recreation classes in general.
When and How to Register!

(Online registration for residents begins at 7am for gymnastics and 7:30 for all other classes on 8/14/13)

Cambio en los horarios de inscripcin para las clases de otoo
Con el afn de ofrecer un mejor servicio al creciente nmero de personas que disfrutan de nuestras clases, el Departamento de Parques y Recreacin est realizando mejoras en sus servicios y ha dividido los horarios de inscripcin a las clases. El 14 de agosto, la inscripcin en lnea abrir a las 7.00 am nicamente para las clases de gimnasia (para residentes de Arlington). Para TODAS LAS DEMS clases, la inscripcin en lnea comenzar a las 7.30 am. Este cambio se debe a dos cuestiones principales. En primer lugar, la cantidad de personas que se inscriben a las clases recreativas durante los primeros minutos de inscripcin en lnea ha aumentado un 40 % en el ltimo ao. Hemos implementado
una serie de cambios tcnicos para respaldar este crecimiento. Esperamos que al separar la inscripcin a las clases de gimnasia, las cuales representan casi la mitad de todas las clases que se ofrecen, se mejore la velocidad del sistema y reduzca el tiempo de espera por telfono. En segundo lugar, muchas personas han solicitado que adelantemos todo el proceso de inscripcin, ya que el horario de apertura anterior interfera con la hora pico de la maana de la mayora de las familias. El Departamento de Parques y Recreacin contina buscando mtodos para facilitar la inscripcin a las clases (como el nuevo portal de inscripcin en lnea) y continuar respaldando el inters de la comunidad en las clases recreativas en general.
