Sun Salutations (Melissa Asay)

In this yoga class, we will lengthen and strengthen, and flex and extend our bodies as we participate in several sequences of salutations. These sequences provide us with an approachable workout, while also avoiding strain and stress on our bodies. We will explore the importance of exhales and inhales, as well as being comfortable with our own selves. How does breathing in or out change our ability to do different yoga poses? Why should we pause and spend time with ourselves each day? Who can plank the longest? Come and find out!

Defense Against the Dark Arts (Chris Jones)

In times of crisis (and this surely is one) it can be tempting to believe that the practical things are those that really matter. Producing food, building companies, winning elections—these things seem critical. Studying poetry, literature, and even history become things we wish we had time for. This could not be more dangerous. It is in times like these today that learning for its own sake becomes absolutely necessary; and the commitment to study is more important than ever.

Worldschooling (Dale & Michelle Bartlett)

One of the greatest blessing we have given our children is the gift of travel. As homeschooling students, what is your dream? Where do you want to go and how important is it to learn through travel? The Bartletts have incorporated travel into every part of their lives. They have found no better way to understand the wonderful diversity of the world than to travel with hands-on experiences. This has opened up their children's minds like nothing else could. It has given them the opportunity to share their views and feelings about what they see and learn. It has, in many ways, given them a deeper appreciation of what they have been blessed with.

The Lost Branch of Government (Ian Cox)

Learn about the critical role of the overseer branch and what that has to do with you! Each individual has a unique personal mission or purpose in life. In addition, each generation has a struggle they are called to face. The crisis we will be facing over the next few decades will determine the rules and culture for the next 100 years. John Adams said: “I must study Politicks and War that my sons may have liberty to study Mathematicks and Philosophy. My sons ought to study Mathematicks and Philosophy, Geography, natural History, Naval Architecture, navigation, Commerce and Agriculture, in order to give their Children a right to study Painting, Poetry, Musick, Architecture, Statuary, Tapestry and Porcelaine.” We are again in a time like Adams where we must understand our rights, checks and balances, and the principled constructs of societies in order to pass a better world onto the next generation. If we do not know our role, then it will be quickly and easily taken from us and we will be left desolate; living at the whims of the elite. Join Ian in laying the first blocks of good government while discovering what is yours to do. Set out on this fun path of coming face to face with greatness in order to thrive in the challenges ahead.

Living Your Vision: Achieve Automatically!(Travis Parry)

Youth generally struggle to set goals that they can actually achieve. As you grow, if you do not learn to set and achieve difficult goals, you may be tempted to give up on goals altogether.

This class will teach the deep work needed to put your goals into automated action.

Voting; Seeing Through the Propaganda (Deborah Palmer)

There are required classes, study manuals, and a rigid test in order to get your drivers license. You must take required classes and mandatory attendance in order to to get a degree. You must make it to rehearsal in order to perform. But have you ever wondered why there is no training on how to vote and find a good candidate before you are told it is your civic duty to go and vote? It is a frustrating phenomenon I hope to reverse in this class. You will learn how to see through the propaganda, how to tell if a candidate is telling the truth, and where to find good reliable information on the candidates that you'll see on your ballot. The information is out there, and it is easy to find. You'll leave this class with a cheat-sheet of websites and organizations that do much of the research for you. You'll learn key words that are being used to disguise agendas that are not friendly to liberty. You can do this! Come to voting rehearsal in my class and together we can make a difference!

Navigating a World of Differing Opinions (Sam Martineau)

Civil discourse and pluralism ... No matter how inconvenient it may seem, we all have to share the world with others who stubbornly refuse to agree with us on matters of politics, religion, culture, and so forth. Unfortunately, there is no magic that we can use to make others change their opinions. But is it possible that the fact that we share our world with others who disagree isn't just a nuisance that has to be put up with? Is it possible that it is a meaningful good that makes the world a better place? Come to this class to learn how to navigate and thrive in a world of differing opinions.

Eternal Truths Learned in War (Rick Robison)

Rick learned for himself the importance of fighting every day to protect our country and our freedoms.

This special power is available to all, more important today in our morally failing America—our sacred, covenant land built originally upon the Gospel of Christ, now in the grips of the Adversary."

Education for Future Food Production (William Demille)

A new wave of young farmers may be poised to get rich! The earth is in a cycle that is making it hard to grow the same amount of food as we have in the past. Education about food production in the past was successful in supplying the world with busy restaurants and grocery stores without the average person ever giving the supply of food a single thought! Currently, this is no longer the case. People are worrying about food availability. Since 2020, things have been rapidly changing! Drought! War! Inflation! Fuel cost! Fertilizer cost! Labor! Food scarcity could be the norm in the near future. There are principles of agriculture production that we can use to create abundant and nutritious food if farmers knew what to do. I will show you how to grow food smart! I will share simple principles that you can do in your home garden or on 1000 acres of land. And when you have food to sell when others don't, the hungry people will be your customers. Making great sales is less about charisma and more about having a product to sell when other salespeople run out of supply. This world needs more farmers with the correct information to grow food in a new climate. The education of the past is not adequate anymore! Were you born to be a farmer?
