Woodworking
If you want woodworking in Fairfax, SHOW your interest, write us an email, and let's make it happen.
Music
Make-a-Band (ages 9+): If you always wanted to be in a band--THIS IS IT! Includes a performance and sets you up for a lifetime of connecting with others through music. Gather your friends to make a band, or let us connect you with new ones.
1-on-1 Practice Buddies (all ages): Getting to the point where you can play music with others means working through tricky parts of songs and the tough feelings that can come with them. And of course, it means learning to play along with someone on a different instrument. We are expert helpers with all that, making practice time fun and productive, and even making up our own songs together!
Drums, Guitar, and Piano
Dance
We believe dance is an activity that can make you feel joyful, free and alive! Dance is about finding your own way of dancing. So we'll engage with music, writing, art, improvisation, and make choreographies together through different contemporary dance techniques that will support us to be creative and have fun.
1-on-1 or Small Group sessions
Woodworking
Learn to use hand tools safely to make cool projects you can take home and play with! Some things in life take time and practice, but we make work fun, and you'll see it's worth the effort!
1-on-1 or Small Group sessions
Spanish
We are passionate about sharing the Spanish language and Latin-American culture to give children the superpower of a second language, and to plant seeds for a life of fruitful and respectful cross-cultural engagement.
1-on-1 or Small Group sessions
Creative Academic Tutoring
Cats learn by playing, and guess what...so do humans, because sometimes learning tough stuff requires creative approaches. Creative Academic Tutoring sessions (CATs for short) make studying any school subject fun, using sensory and play-based exercises to build confidence with little wins that get bigger and bigger as you stick with it.
We adjust to your age & interests
In-home
We come to you
*Spanish language instruction can be integrated into any activity
1-on-1
Sometimes practicing art or a foreign language can be challenging. We want you to love it, dig into it and have fun while getting better at it. We will guide you and adjust to your needs. Art and language can be lifelong companions; don't ever let go!
Small Groups / Pods
These are unique times to grow up in. You might be looking for safe ways to have fun, make friends and spend time with other children outside of school. Create your own activity pod or let us connect you with neighbors interested in the same things.
