ENROLLMENT NOW OPEN!
Join Usdan faculty Edna Gruvman for a virtual family yoga class. Together, we will practice basic yoga poses and partner poses that promote flexibility and strength, and explore various breathing techniques that help reduce stress and promote relaxation. The class will end with a Loving Kindness meditation that enhances our ability to be empathic and increases feelings of ease and wellbeing.
All ages welcome.
Join Chef Tiffany in making our own spin on the classic Good Humor Strawberry Shortcake ice cream popsicles. We will make strawberry sorbet from scratch, and then create ice cream bars by adding pantry treats (golden oreos, vanilla ice cream, and strawberry jello). Get ready for a fun time and a delicious snack!
A full list of ingredients will be sent prior to the workshop. Ingredients can be substituted depending on dietary preferences.
Routines, boundaries, chores, communication, fun, and expectations have all been upended since COVID-19 restrictions begin. Navigating constant change and uncertainty is tough, especially when juggling children, jobs, extended family, friends, and health concerns.
Usdan's is launching its first online arts education program.
The goal of Usdan Online is to offer excellent arts instruction and to create a community of artists while we cannot be together on Usdan's campus. We will utilize our talented network of artists and educators to teach innovative classes in our traditional departments as well as new ones. For more information, visit our Usdan Online page.
We welcome you to join fellow Usdan parents for a free webinar with child psychologist and art therapist Dr. Robin F. Goodman. The webinar will offer practical tips for managing time, activities, parenting issues this summer. Register for the webinar here.
Craft your personal visual or written message with Usdan Creative Writing Teacher Jay Howard and Usdan Curriculum Specialist Hawley Hussey at this online workshop.
During this time, many of us want to get our passion, frustration, anger, and disappointment out onto our best and strongest protest sign. How do we create signs from the heart that stand out and spark discussion? How do we use art to question and understand lived experiences?
