Old Fashioned Kickball

llo Parents/Guardians:

 

Do you remember how much fun you had playing kickball as a child?  So will your children when they sign up for the EMH December Sport Month - Kickball!

 

There are only three (3) sessions in December and the cost is only $18. If you don’t have an account with us yet, please visit: http://www.emhsports.com/guide. If you already take our classes just log on to register at: http://www.emhsports.com/signup. 

 

If you plan to use school funds now or in the next few months please order early with us and request your funding to be sent right away. Since schools close down early for December and it takes awhile for them to catch up in January, there can be delays in clearing your child if you wait too long. If you also have a full deposit on your EMH account there will be no interruption in your participation even if the schools are delayed in handling funding requests.

 

Learn more about sibling discounts for those parents paying out-of-pocket with three (3) or more children at: http://www.emhsports.com/discount/sibs.

Kickball is a very simple sport and is popular with our students. A large rubber ball is used for making contact with the runner either by tagging or throwing below the waist. The two teams will run the bases at the beginning of the class to choose which team will kick first.

Improve Camp

Hello everyone,

​Multiple camps run alongside each other to accommodate various ages and playing levels.​  There is a place for you, your family, and friends to learn and have a great time.  Feel free to let others know about the opportunity!

​

Why Improvisation?

In the words of our students:

-“Improv gives purpose for theory and makes theory fun.”

-“Improv helps you get way better at your instrument without stressing.”

-“Improv lets you express yourself and get to know other musicians better.”
