Project Adventure Concepts: (for freshmen marking period 1 )

Comfort zone: range of situations that an individual has experienced and do not cause undo stress
Challenge of Choice: finding a way to step outside your comfort zone and learn something new.
Caring Restraint: holding back so we don't injure ourselves or others.
Positive confrontation: to address another students behavior that is impeding the group process or the success of the group.
No Put-down rule:students will only encourage each other, no negative comments.

If you are not part of the solution, you are part of the problem.

I teach Project Adventure,Freshman, Junior and Senior Health.   In addition, I have been teaching Yoga as a physical education elective since 2004.  I have completed three levels of training in the Yogafit method. Plus the "Anatomy & Alignment of Yoga" and "Yoga for Children".  Students have been very receptive to the yoga classes.  Yoga is best performed barefoot on a personal yoga mat. If students do not have their own mat; socks must be worn for hygenic purposes.  Sneakers must be worn from the locker room to class.  I hope that students can obtain their own mat, these personal mats can be stored in the girls and boys locker room.  Yoga Mats can fit in most gym lockers.
