Here's the lineup of some of the Winter Programs that will be happening with Northborough Recreation. Check them out below.
ADULT PROGRAMS
GOAT YOGA - ONLY 1 MORE SESSION UNTIL SPRING!
Our goat yoga class is an amusing and unique yoga experience that combines traditional yoga practices with playful interactions with small goats. In this all-level class, yogis perform a series of poses while a herd of adorable, friendly goats roam freely around the area. They often interact with the participants, providing plenty of opportunities for giggles and delightful moments. These cute animals can sometimes climb onto the backs of yogis as they are in certain poses. The mixture of yoga and playful interactions with goats not only increases flexibility, strength, and balance but also improves mood and fosters a sense of calmness. It's not your usual yoga class, but it promises a whole load of laughs, happiness, and a truly unique experience for all participants.

PICKLEBALL LESSONS WITH SUZANNE - SOME SPOTS STILL AVAILABLE IN JANUARY!
Beginner 1:
Players new or nearly new to the game of pickleball. The class will center on basic technical aspects of successfully playing the game of pickleball. In addition to rules of play, focus will include techniques for effective forehand shots, backhand shots, dinks, drops, serves, and return of serves. The class will also cover the more tactical skills of court positioning, transitions to non-volley zone, and non-volley zone play. The goal of the class is to give players the skills needed to reach the 2.5-player level.
Beginner 2:
Players who have completed a Beginner 1 pickleball course or have equivalent skills. The class will center on both the technical and tactical skills needed to advance from a 2.5 to a 3.0 player. Focus includes hitting medium-paced serves and volleys with direction and consistency; learning and using drop shots to reset gameplay and open shot opportunities; court positioning in different scenarios; understanding how to identify your strengths and your opponent's weaknesses to maximize point opportunities; and how to compete in a pickleball tournament.
Intermediate:
This class level is for the player who already has a basic understanding of the game and is trying to get to the next level. The focus will be on more effectively using challenging shots like the drop shot, increasing control of your shot placement, running set plays and scenarios, as well as developing more power in shots. Geared towards those who are solid 2.75 or 3.0 players and want to play more competitively and/or play in tournaments. Tournament play will be covered in this session.
