UPCOMING EVENTS!

First Aid & Medical Emergencies

CANCELED

Thanks to Trevor Dugan and David Marciniak for their excellent instruction for CPR, AED, and Choking in March. Unfortunately, we did not receive enough registrations for First Aid to run the class this year. However, watch this space (and reach out to us if you’re interested), because we will certainly offer the class again in the future!

Thanks also to the Resource Council of WNY and Executive Director Catherine Roberts for offering their wonderful space for these classes!

LAUGHTER YOGA!

POSTPONED

Resource Council of WNY

347 E. Ferry St. Buffalo 14208

Introduced by Dr. Madan and Madhuri Kataria in India in the 1990s, Laughter Yoga is an exercise program that combines laughter exercises and yoga breathing techniques. Practicing Laughter Yoga leads to reduced stress and fun, so we thought it would be perfect for a year-end ARTA offering! Led by Certified Laughter Yoga Teacher Jennifer May.

Suggested donation at the door: $5 ARTA Members/ $10 non-members.

This session has been postponed. We will let you know when we select a new date!

ARTA thanks Resource Council of WNY for co-sponsoring this event!
