  How do you reach out to a child who has experienced the death of someone they love? How does an adult family member explore and cope with grief, yet still support a child's loss? Stepping Stones of Hope provides an opportunity to answer these questions during our weekend Camp Paz for Kids/Grown-Ups. These programs reach out to both children and adults in separate, synergistic settings that have been designed to provide a nurturing, expressive, creative and fun environment for healing to transpire. Death is a difficult concept for children to grasp. Kids often keep their emotions hidden, not knowing how to communicate their pain, and not wanting to add to an adult's grief burden. Weekend programs provide a safe place for these children to express themselves. Through art, music, role-playing, and a lot of talking and laughing, kids learn about death and dying. And, they learn how to begin to cope. At the same time nearby, adult family members are learning too, exploring their grief through journaling, music, art, self-care, relaxation and dialogue. And they discover ways they can best support the children who share their loss. (less) ... Read more

  Kid-Fit is much like an aerobic class, little ones strengthen their muscles, obtain cardiovascular exercise, stretch, and learn relaxation techniques while "having fun" with age appropriate equipment. Kids learn why it's important to eat right, exercise regularly and get enough rest. As a bonus, parents receive items such as recipes, newsletters and activity sheets. Learn how to get Kid-Fit into your preschool or fitness center.

  HORSEMANSHIP RIDING LESSONS FOR CHILDREN AND ADULTS

     We have many openings at different levels for adults and children. For elementary students, we have lesson openings on early-out days. Please call 520-298-9808 to schedule a lesson. Email: office@traktucson.org​ The nature of a horse . . . These lessons are more involved than just riding. We believe that in order to be safe around horses it is very important to understand the "nature of a horse". Lessons start with working side by side with the horses learning about their nature, how to approach, halter and lead them. Once mounted, students will learn the Secure Seat method of riding. This works on having a balanced seat which leaves the riders hands and legs free to communicate with the horse. Lesson topics will also include learning about daily horse care, diet, teeth floating, hoof trimming and much more. ​ Our main focus is western based riding and each semester we offer a gymkhana (timed, speed-based events, ie: barrel racing, pole bending, etc.) for ribbons and trophies to allow our students to showcase their skills. Our riding instructors are accomplished riders, barrel racers, and equine safety experts with a gift for teaching. For those who are new to the equine programming at TRAK, or who have questions about funding, please review our policies and procedures. Check our site for costs, more information and to sign up today! (less) ... Read more
