FILM
SPRING FILM SERIES: ROMANTIC COMEDIES PRESENT TO PAST
FM-01 • Classes Begin: Feb 27 (End Date: Apr 17) 24 Hours • 8 sessions • Thu: 6:30-9:30
There are very few things more ubiquitous in popular culture than the romantic comedy; it has been
a staple in Hollywood for decades. In all its guises, in all its permutations, what is at its core is one
of the oldest stories there is: “Girl meets Boy, Girl loses Boy, Girl finally gets Boy.” What makes a
good romantic comedy, often referred to as rom-com, instead of a bad one, is the same answer as
any movie genre: quality writing, sparkling acting talent, and intelligent directing. We will start this
film series in the very recent past, by watching “Silver Linings Playbook.” Then we will watch films
from each previous decade, traveling back in film history, through the 1980’s “Moonstruck” to the
1950’s “Pillow Talk,” following the thread that will lead us back to the great screwball comedies of
the 1930’s. By the end of the class, we will have reaffirmed the resilience and relevance of the romcom, and will understand a bit more why it persists as one of the most popular film genres.
Doug Sanders has had a lifelong love-relationship with film, and has been a self-taught student of it for many
years. He is also heavily involved with the local theater community as a director, actor and writer. He loves
modern, foreign and art films, but also has a soft spot for the Hollywood films of the 30’s, 40’s and 50’s. In
between films, he spends his time as an electrical engineer.

INTRODUCTION TO READING TAROT CARDS
HL-03 • Classes Begin: Mar 3 (End Date: Apr 7) 12 Hours • 6 Sessions • Mon: 6:00-8:00
BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND! Have you ever wondered about the Tarot and how the Tarot
Cards are actually a wonderful way of helping guide you in everyday life? We all have the
power and inner intuition within ourselves to make decisions that will benefit our current life and
better current situations we are involved in. Life is overwhelming and sometimes we allow our
inner soul to not be heard. We try to keep moving forward without really listening to our inner
voice. Shawn has been using Tarot Cards for over 20 years and explains that at times just a
simple card can guide a person down a path that they might have not chosen - because they
overlooked the little signs presented to them by the universe.
This class is an introduction to the cards and the unique meaning of each card; you will learn
how to do a reading and how the cards can be used as tool in everyday life.

KUNDALINI YOGA & ENERGY PRACTICES
FOR HEALTH AND HAPPINESS
YG-04 • Classes Begin: Mar 13 (End Date: May 8)
Recent studies have shown that the physiology of those who
meditate on a regular basis can be as much as ten to fifteen
years younger than those who do not. Regular practice of
Kundalini Yoga offers many possibilities for a happier, healthier
life. These are just a few:
• Aids in Weight Loss (increased metabolism) • Increased
flexibility • Stress relief • Headache reduction • Improved
physical health • Control over moods • Strengthened immune
system • Overcoming depression
Kundalini is the oldest and most powerful form of yoga and incorporates all facets of yoga including movement, breath work,
meditation and mantra. Practicing Kundalini yoga strengthens
the nervous system and enables the practitioner to harness
the energy of the mind and the emotions. Kundalini yoga releases energy blocks along the spine which result in a sense
of well being and overall physical health. Kundalini classes are
appropriate for beginners as well as experienced practitioners.
Please wear loose, layered clothing and bring a mat, pillow
and towel or blanket to throw over yourself during deep
relaxation.
Kundalini yoga and acupressure work on the flow of energy
which is vital for good health (mental and physical). When the
flow of energy is working as it should, your mind, body and energy work together in harmony to create a sense of well-being
and your glands and organs work as they should. Too often the
flow is disrupted and negative patterns keep us stuck in emotional and physical ill health. This powerful, 8-week course will
give simple approaches to greater health and happiness using
yoga, breath, meditation and an acupressure technique widely
used by the medical community called EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique). By releasing negative emotions the body and
mind work as they should and often old negative patterns shift
and even deep trauma can be released. Students report less
stress, pain relief (both physical and emotional) and a sense of
perspective they never had before. You have endless potential.
Join us and find and learn what a very short daily practice can
do to improve your life! Please wear loose, layered clothing
and bring a mat, pillow and towel or blanket to throw over
yourself during deep relaxation.
