8:45 AM - 9:45 AM	Yin Yoga for Health and Happiness - Yin Yoga for Health and Happiness - Spring 2025 - Tammy Hollis Yin Yoga is a little different than a "typical" yoga class.  It is a passive/quiet yoga practice where we learn to relax our muscles in poses held for longer periods of time in order to order to improve joint, ligament, fascia and connective tissue that normally are not exercised in traditional exercise sessions.  Please let instructor know of any injuries, concerns in order that the poses practiced in the class may be modified to meet your specific needs.  Yin yoga is highly recommended if you are over the age of 35 as it helps to keep the connective tissue, joints and other aspects of the body in alignment and sustain flexibility as we age. Yin yoga also incorporates mindfulness to include breathing techniques that help improve mood, sleep, and mobility. This is an all levels class from beginners to advanced. Participants will need a yoga or padded mat, small lap blanket or beach towel. The participant may decide to purchase their own optional equipment - bolster, blocks and yoga strap. The Parks and Recreation Department provide those optional equipment items for use unless you chose to purchase your own. It is suggested that you attend class and use the provided optional equipment before you go out and purchase your own.  it is suggested you give yourself some time to see if the class is something that you will continue before purchasing the additional items. Instructor reserves the discretion to cancel class as needed. FREE to the public. Class Cancellations will be announced in advance if known or participants will be alerted as soon as possible before scheduled class time/day.

A growing body of carefully conducted research is building a compelling case for tai chi as an adjunct to standard medical treatment for the prevention and rehabilitation of many conditions commonly associated with age. Tai chi is a low-impact form of exercise using stillness and smooth movement. It focuses on body positioning, balance, and relaxation. Practitioners improve their awareness of how the body moves and how posture, breathing, and relaxation work together to release tension in the body. Regular practice of tai chi increases flexibility, muscle strength, and bone mineral density. Tai chi promotes health and mobility using slow movements and intentional breathing. It can be practiced alone or with others and requires little practice space. Its movements are slow and smooth yet effective for health and self-portection. $100/per quarter, or $8 per class. ContactCraig Ruetercraig_rueter@yahoo.com334-703-0899

We support the combined use of the ABA model and the sensory model for emotional regulation and behavior management. TR Program Culture: We will offer tools for those who are sensory-seeking and sensory-avoidant to foster internal regulation. We focus on supporting individuals to use their language and self-expression to share how they are feeling. We train staff and volunteers/guests on specific ways to present themselves so as not to seem intimidating or scary to participants, such as encouraging them to sit on the floor or dress in casual clothing We provide visual cues, simple instructions, modeling, extended time, and flexibility in programming to ensure everyone can participate at their level. We scale activities to meet the abilities and needs of our participants. We give two choices and allow time to think through and respond. We give eye contact as much as is feasible to participants to acknowledge their person/needs. We will utilize social stories when feasible to foster positive engagement and appropriate responses. We promote behaviors that are healthy and inclusive. We look at behaviors to communicate a want or a need. We look for this need and provide an alternative, more appropriate way for the individual to obtain what they are looking for. We use positive reinforcement to reinforce actions that we want to continue. We use reinforcers to reward positive behaviors, such as time with a favorite toy or a break from the program. We use de-escalation techniques – a calm voice, neutral body language, moving to a quiet space if possible – to communicate when times get stressful. If someone has a behavior that is increasing, we will look to call parents for support or for early release from the activity. Contact:Elizabeth Kaufmanekaufman@auburnalabama.org

A growing body of carefully conducted research is building a compelling case for tai chi as an adjunct to standard medical treatment for the prevention and rehabilitation of many conditions commonly associated with age. Tai chi is a low-impact form of exercise using stillness and smooth movement. It focuses on body positioning, balance, and relaxation. Practitioners improve their awareness of how the body moves and how posture, breathing, and relaxation work together to release tension in the body. Regular practice of tai chi increases flexibility, muscle strength, and bone mineral density. Tai chi promotes health and mobility using slow movements and intentional breathing. It can be practiced alone or with others and requires little practice space. Its movements are slow and smooth yet effective for health and self-portection. $100/per quarter, or $8 per class. ContactCraig Ruetercraig_rueter@yahoo.com334-703-0899

8:45 AM - 9:45 AM	Yin Yoga for Health and Happiness - Yin Yoga for Health and Happiness - Spring 2025 - Tammy Hollis Yin Yoga is a little different than a "typical" yoga class.  It is a passive/quiet yoga practice where we learn to relax our muscles in poses held for longer periods of time in order to order to improve joint, ligament, fascia and connective tissue that normally are not exercised in traditional exercise sessions.  Please let instructor know of any injuries, concerns in order that the poses practiced in the class may be modified to meet your specific needs.  Yin yoga is highly recommended if you are over the age of 35 as it helps to keep the connective tissue, joints and other aspects of the body in alignment and sustain flexibility as we age. Yin yoga also incorporates mindfulness to include breathing techniques that help improve mood, sleep, and mobility. This is an all levels class from beginners to advanced. Participants will need a yoga or padded mat, small lap blanket or beach towel. The participant may decide to purchase their own optional equipment - bolster, blocks and yoga strap. The Parks and Recreation Department provide those optional equipment items for use unless you chose to purchase your own. It is suggested that you attend class and use the provided optional equipment before you go out and purchase your own.  it is suggested you give yourself some time to see if the class is something that you will continue before purchasing the additional items. Instructor reserves the discretion to cancel class as needed. FREE to the public. Class Cancellations will be announced in advance if known or participants will be alerted as soon as possible before scheduled class time/day.

Practitioners improve their awareness of how the body moves and how posture, breathing, and relaxation work together to release tension in the body. Regular practice of tai chi increases flexibility, muscle strength, and bone mineral density. Tai chi promotes health and mobility using slow movements and intentional breathing. It can be practiced alone or with others and requires little practice space. Its movements are slow and smooth yet effective for health and self-portection. $100/per quarter, or $8 per class. ContactCraig Ruetercraig_rueter@yahoo.com334-703-0899

Regular practice of tai chi increases flexibility, muscle strength, and bone mineral density. Tai chi promotes health and mobility using slow movements and intentional breathing. It can be practiced alone or with others and requires little practice space. Its movements are slow and smooth yet effective for health and self-portection. $100/per quarter, or $8 per class. ContactCraig Ruetercraig_rueter@yahoo.com334-703-0899

5:15 PM - 6:15 PM	Tai Chi - Tai Chi - Spring 2025 - Wander Tai Chi Tai chi is a gentle form of exercise that can help maintain strength, flexibility, and balance and could be the perfect activity for the rest of your life. A growing body of carefully conducted research is building a compelling case for tai chi as an adjunct to standard medical treatment for the prevention and rehabilitation of many conditions commonly associated with age. Tai chi is a low-impact form of exercise using stillness and smooth movement. It focuses on body positioning, balance, and relaxation. Practitioners improve their awareness of how the body moves and how posture, breathing, and relaxation work together to release tension in the body.

The Therapeutic Summer Camp's curriculum program includes life skills training such as handling money, team work, social skills, creative opportunities, exercise, swimming, and other physical recreation activities (e.g., basketball, bowling, volleyball). The campers also participate in cultural experiences, such as visiting museums, outdoor adventures, and other exciting trips. Last year's camp was a huge success and this year's camp will be even better! Registration will begin online on Monday, February 10th, 2025. Registration will close at 5 p.m. on Friday, March 14, 2025. Campers will be evaluated on an individual basis. $75 per camper. $50 for each additional sibling. The Medical Treatment Authorization Form and Camper Medication Authorization Form below must be turned in to the Harris Center (425 Perry Street) no later than Friday, March 21st at 5pm. The Camper Medication Authorization Form MUST BE NOTARIZED. If this is your first time applying to camp, we will contact you to set up an evaluation session with our Camp Director. If it is discovered during the evaluation that your child is not a good fit for a camp setting, you will be refunded in full. TR Program Vision:Our vision is to support all persons through inclusive recreation opportunities that meet the needs of physical activity, socialization, engagement, friendship-building, and education. We support the combined use of the ABA model and the sensory model for emotional regulation and behavior management. TR Program Culture: We will offer tools for those who are sensory-seeking and sensory-avoidant to foster internal regulation. We focus on supporting individuals to use their language and self-expression to share how they are feeling. We train staff and volunteers/guests on specific ways to present themselves so as not to seem intimidating or scary to participants, such as encouraging them to sit on the floor or dress in casual clothing We provide visual cues, simple instructions, modeling, extended time, and flexibility in programming to ensure everyone can participate at their level. We scale activities to meet the abilities and needs of our participants. We give two choices and allow time to think through and respond. We give eye contact as much as is feasible to participants to acknowledge their person/needs. We will utilize social stories when feasible to foster positive engagement and appropriate responses. We promote behaviors that are healthy and inclusive. We look at behaviors to communicate a want or a need. We look for this need and provide an alternative, more appropriate way for the individual to obtain what they are looking for. We use positive reinforcement to reinforce actions that we want to continue. We use reinforcers to reward positive behaviors, such as time with a favorite toy or a break from the program. We use de-escalation techniques – a calm voice, neutral body language, moving to a quiet space if possible – to communicate when times get stressful. If someone has a behavior that is increasing, we will look to call parents for support or for early release from the activity. ContactElizabeth Kaufmanekaufman@auburnalabama.org(334)501-2939Therapeutic Programs follow the same participation guidelines as Special Olympics International. In order to qualify for Therapeutic Programs, participants must have a medically diagnosed cognitive impairment. When you register for programs, please list all medical conditions your participant has been diagnosed with as this will help us best support them to be successful while participating in our activities.

11:00 AM - 11:30 AM	Seated Zumba Gold - Seated Zumba Gold - Summer 2025 Zumba movements are designed to mimic many typical Latin dance styles like salsa, rumba, and cumbia. Although traditionally many of these dances require use of your entire body, they can easily be adapted for people with mobility challenges. Many movements can be done with the upper body from a seated position in a wheelchair. Because so many different styles of music are usually incorporated into typical Zumba classes, participants join into the motions they feel most comfortable with. This class is a great way to strengthen the upper body as well as the lower extremities such as ankles and feet (if able). The class can be taken from your own wheelchair or from a regular chair.

A growing body of carefully conducted research is building a compelling case for tai chi as an adjunct to standard medical treatment for the prevention and rehabilitation of many conditions commonly associated with age. Tai chi is a low-impact form of exercise using stillness and smooth movement. It focuses on body positioning, balance, and relaxation. Practitioners improve their awareness of how the body moves and how posture, breathing, and relaxation work together to release tension in the body. Regular practice of tai chi increases flexibility, muscle strength, and bone mineral density. Tai chi promotes health and mobility using slow movements and intentional breathing. It can be practiced alone or with others and requires little practice space. Its movements are slow and smooth yet effective for health and self-portection. $100/per quarter, or $8 per class. ContactCraig Ruetercraig_rueter@yahoo.com334-703-0899

The Therapeutic Summer Camp's curriculum program includes life skills training such as handling money, team work, social skills, creative opportunities, exercise, swimming, and other physical recreation activities (e.g., basketball, bowling, volleyball). The campers also participate in cultural experiences, such as visiting museums, outdoor adventures, and other exciting trips. Last year's camp was a huge success and this year's camp will be even better! Registration will begin online on Monday, February 10th, 2025. Registration will close at 5 p.m. on Friday, March 14, 2025. Campers will be evaluated on an individual basis. $75 per camper. $50 for each additional sibling. The Medical Treatment Authorization Form and Camper Medication Authorization Form below must be turned in to the Harris Center (425 Perry Street) no later than Friday, March 21st at 5pm. The Camper Medication Authorization Form MUST BE NOTARIZED. If this is your first time applying to camp, we will contact you to set up an evaluation session with our Camp Director. If it is discovered during the evaluation that your child is not a good fit for a camp setting, you will be refunded in full. TR Program Vision:Our vision is to support all persons through inclusive recreation opportunities that meet the needs of physical activity, socialization, engagement, friendship-building, and education. We support the combined use of the ABA model and the sensory model for emotional regulation and behavior management. TR Program Culture: We will offer tools for those who are sensory-seeking and sensory-avoidant to foster internal regulation. We focus on supporting individuals to use their language and self-expression to share how they are feeling. We train staff and volunteers/guests on specific ways to present themselves so as not to seem intimidating or scary to participants, such as encouraging them to sit on the floor or dress in casual clothing We provide visual cues, simple instructions, modeling, extended time, and flexibility in programming to ensure everyone can participate at their level. We scale activities to meet the abilities and needs of our participants. We give two choices and allow time to think through and respond. We give eye contact as much as is feasible to participants to acknowledge their person/needs. We will utilize social stories when feasible to foster positive engagement and appropriate responses. We promote behaviors that are healthy and inclusive. We look at behaviors to communicate a want or a need. We look for this need and provide an alternative, more appropriate way for the individual to obtain what they are looking for. We use positive reinforcement to reinforce actions that we want to continue. We use reinforcers to reward positive behaviors, such as time with a favorite toy or a break from the program. We use de-escalation techniques – a calm voice, neutral body language, moving to a quiet space if possible – to communicate when times get stressful. If someone has a behavior that is increasing, we will look to call parents for support or for early release from the activity. ContactElizabeth Kaufmanekaufman@auburnalabama.org(334)501-2939Therapeutic Programs follow the same participation guidelines as Special Olympics International. In order to qualify for Therapeutic Programs, participants must have a medically diagnosed cognitive impairment. When you register for programs, please list all medical conditions your participant has been diagnosed with as this will help us best support them to be successful while participating in our activities.

Practitioners improve their awareness of how the body moves and how posture, breathing, and relaxation work together to release tension in the body. Regular practice of tai chi increases flexibility, muscle strength, and bone mineral density. Tai chi promotes health and mobility using slow movements and intentional breathing. It can be practiced alone or with others and requires little practice space. Its movements are slow and smooth yet effective for health and self-portection. $100/per quarter, or $8 per class. ContactCraig Ruetercraig_rueter@yahoo.com334-703-0899

The campers also participate in cultural experiences, such as visiting museums, outdoor adventures, and other exciting trips. Last year's camp was a huge success and this year's camp will be even better! Registration will begin online on Monday, February 10th, 2025. Registration will close at 5 p.m. on Friday, March 14, 2025. Campers will be evaluated on an individual basis. $75 per camper. $50 for each additional sibling. The Medical Treatment Authorization Form and Camper Medication Authorization Form below must be turned in to the Harris Center (425 Perry Street) no later than Friday, March 21st at 5pm. The Camper Medication Authorization Form MUST BE NOTARIZED. If this is your first time applying to camp, we will contact you to set up an evaluation session with our Camp Director. If it is discovered during the evaluation that your child is not a good fit for a camp setting, you will be refunded in full. TR Program Vision:Our vision is to support all persons through inclusive recreation opportunities that meet the needs of physical activity, socialization, engagement, friendship-building, and education. We support the combined use of the ABA model and the sensory model for emotional regulation and behavior management. TR Program Culture: We will offer tools for those who are sensory-seeking and sensory-avoidant to foster internal regulation. We focus on supporting individuals to use their language and self-expression to share how they are feeling. We train staff and volunteers/guests on specific ways to present themselves so as not to seem intimidating or scary to participants, such as encouraging them to sit on the floor or dress in casual clothing We provide visual cues, simple instructions, modeling, extended time, and flexibility in programming to ensure everyone can participate at their level. We scale activities to meet the abilities and needs of our participants. We give two choices and allow time to think through and respond. We give eye contact as much as is feasible to participants to acknowledge their person/needs. We will utilize social stories when feasible to foster positive engagement and appropriate responses. We promote behaviors that are healthy and inclusive. We look at behaviors to communicate a want or a need. We look for this need and provide an alternative, more appropriate way for the individual to obtain what they are looking for. We use positive reinforcement to reinforce actions that we want to continue. We use reinforcers to reward positive behaviors, such as time with a favorite toy or a break from the program. We use de-escalation techniques – a calm voice, neutral body language, moving to a quiet space if possible – to communicate when times get stressful. If someone has a behavior that is increasing, we will look to call parents for support or for early release from the activity. ContactElizabeth Kaufmanekaufman@auburnalabama.org(334)501-2939Therapeutic Programs follow the same participation guidelines as Special Olympics International. In order to qualify for Therapeutic Programs, participants must have a medically diagnosed cognitive impairment. When you register for programs, please list all medical conditions your participant has been diagnosed with as this will help us best support them to be successful while participating in our activities.

11:00 AM - 11:30 AM	Seated Zumba Gold - Seated Zumba Gold - Summer 2025 Zumba movements are designed to mimic many typical Latin dance styles like salsa, rumba, and cumbia. Although traditionally many of these dances require use of your entire body, they can easily be adapted for people with mobility challenges. Many movements can be done with the upper body from a seated position in a wheelchair. Because so many different styles of music are usually incorporated into typical Zumba classes, participants join into the motions they feel most comfortable with. This class is a great way to strengthen the upper body as well as the lower extremities such as ankles and feet (if able). The class can be taken from your own wheelchair or from a regular chair.
