Fee: $115.00 + $14.95 HST
When you look up at the night sky, have you ever wondered what you see
there? What are the stars? How did they form? What are galaxies, nebulae,
and black holes? In this course, geared towards people with an interest in
astronomy but no special training, we’re going to explore our night sky,
constellations, our solar system, our galaxy, and what lies beyond the far
reaches of space. In addition, we’ll learn about past and current projects
for space exploration, as well as future ideas for space travel. Our journey
will also take us to black holes, quasars, supernovae, brown dwarfs, and the
Big Bang. And lastly, we’ll explore in depth on how we make observations
from earth, and touch on the mechanics of optical telescopes that aid us in
exploring the night sky. At the end of this course, you will be able to look
at the night sky with understanding and wonder at the marvels of the
universe.

Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) Level 1
With Jo-Anne Eadie Wed. Oct. 6 5 Sessions
Pauline Johnson C.V.S 7:00-9:30
Fee: $ 85.00 + 11.05 HST
Emotional Freedom Technique - EFT - taught and practiced over a five week
period. You will learn the technique the first night and be able to go home
and use it on yourself. Each week will build upon the next as we tackle
issues of procrastination, weight, happiness, relationships, physical and
emotional pain and more. See how easy it is to live a peaceful, prosperous,
joyful life without old emotional pain that holds you back. Anxiety, Fears,
Stress, Guilt, and Phobias. EFT doesn’t give you amnesia, you still remember
a painful incident or problem, but you do not attach an emotional charge to
it. This allows you to think the problem out easily and effortlessly and
find a solution. Usually taught in a one day workshop, I have found that
people have wanted to practice it more with guidance. EFT is a gift to
yourself for life.

Bellydancing Fitness
With Elizabeth Vick Wed. Oct. 6 8 sessions
Pauline Johnson C.V.S. 7:00 - 8:00 p.m.
Fee: $75.00 + $9.75 HST
Bellydance: what an exotic-sounding word! It conjures up images of desert
sheiks and harem girls; Scheherazade and the Arabian Nights; and camel
caravans laden with rare silks, spices, and jewels. Belly dancing is natural
to a woman’s bone and muscle structure with movements emanating from the
torso rather than in the legs and feet. The dance often focuses upon
isolating different parts of the body, moving them independently in sensuous
patterns, weaving together the entire feminine form. If fun is what you are
looking for, this is the workshop.
