Yoga Flow (Starla Sheen)

Get centered and practice with a certified Yoga teacher and PSCS parent. This class is an all-level Vinyasa Flow style class that will begin with a short meditation and breathing exercise. We will move into a flow series, practice some balance sequences, and then end with another short meditation and intention setting for the day. Materials needed: Yoga Mat (PSCS has mats), Bare Feet, Comfy Clothes (to move around in), Water Bottle.

Soccer (hannah)

Play soccer every Wednesday morning at Yesler Terrace! This is fun, connective, non-competitive yet committed soccer for all.

Dance and Sing (hannah)

In this class, we will gather to dance and sing – dance wildly, sing loudly, follow facilitated motions sometimes, get extremely sweaty, and express ourselves through freedom of movement. We will co-create a shared playlist and gather somewhere in the building (now that King is a library, we’ll figure something else out).

This class is for anyone who loves dancing or finds it a little scary – it is a safe space to practice finding free movement in your body with creative play and without judgment. Open to all.

High School Sexual Health (Amy)

Note: This class is open to high school students only.

In this year-long class, we will dive deep into all things Sexual Health!  As high schoolers, you are right in the thick of understanding more about your body, your wants, your needs, and your view of your futures.

Throughout the year, you will connect what we learn about to YOUR values, building a stronger understanding of what sex and sexuality mean to you.

We will cover healthy and unhealthy relationship behaviors and patterns, how to set and communicate boundaries, ways to manage STI and pregnancy risks, and more.  

This class takes an inclusive approach to Sex Ed, centering the experiences of the expansive range of gender identities, sexual orientations, and bodies.  

Learning is student-centered, and curriculum will be developed, in part, based on the interests and wonderings of the students in the class.

Middle School Sexual Health (Amy)

Note: This class is open to middle school students only.

In this year-long class, we will cover a wide range of topics that all fall under the beautiful umbrella of Sexual Health.  Join us to learn and talk about relationship skills like communication and consent, self-advocacy skills like knowing and setting boundaries, and body-knowledge related to reproductive systems.  

 

Learning will happen through videos, discussions, activities, reading, and art!
