Neil graduates to kindergarten

Neil graduates from Windsor! We threw him a pizza party picnic. It was loads of fun, but the goodbyes were difficult. We will miss you, Neil. It has been a life-changing four years. We know you will conquer kindergarten, and beyond.

Karate (first few lessons)

Windsor has partnered with a karate school and many of the children (4 years and older) have started their lessons. Rather than focusing on "fighting," the lessons are really about instilling respect not just for others, but for one self.

The children are building their concentration, discipline, listening skills, and focus.

They are challenging their bodies and improving coordination, endurance, strength, etc.

And it's just a whole lot of FUN with their friends!

Check out the videos and feel free to contact me if you'd like to sit in and watch.
