INTRODUCTION TO MEDITATION

We all want to be happy and lead fulfilled lives. But too often we depend upon our minds to find this happiness and too often we are disappointed. The reason is that we are using the wrong tool for the job. To find true happiness, we need to look within, for our hearts hold the answers to finding true joy and contentment, not our minds. This is where meditation comes in. By learning how to quiet the mind, we can remove ourselves from the fear the mind creates and open us up to a whole new world of self-discovery and purpose. In this class, we will learn the true benefits of the meditative experience as well as experience meditation itself. If you feel frustrated and discouraged in life, this is the class you have been waiting for! Mr. D’Angelo has been teaching meditation for over 25 years and has helped hundreds of people find peace of mind and a loving purpose to their lives. Please come to this introduction and join us.TUESDAY Mr. D’Angelo Date: 2/7 Session: 1 7:00-9:30 Fee: $30* Middle School NR: $35Rm. 121*No Golden Pass discount given for this class.

KUNG FU KARATEAges 7 - 12

This course will serve as a comprehensive introduction and basic study of Hung Gar Kung Fu Karate, an ancient traditional method that derives its theory from the five major animals of Chinese martial arts i.e., the dragon, snake, leopard, crane and tiger. Kung Fu Karate is considered a path of self-discovery in which the student will find, hopefully, a rich philosophical understanding as well as a way to improve one’s health and self image through discipline and practice. The students will be introduced to the “drills”, which not only develops strength but imparts the theory that makes the system work. Through diligent practice and reflection the student will discover a sense of balance and harmony while developing a healthy mind, body and spirit. This course will be an interactive hands-on experience including physical and mental conditioning as well as philosophy, attitude and character development. Carefully managed physical contact is a necessary component of training a martial art. Successful completion of the course will result in a solid basis of understanding of what it is like to practice Kung Fu Karate with the ability to carry this experience into an active Kung Fu Karate school. Please wear loose comfortable clothing to class. The instructor, Sifu Robert Gott, is the owner of the Red Dragon School of Martial Arts located at the McKinley Mall.
