Stepping Tones has become the most popular private pre-school program in Western Sullivan County because in addition to a curriculum that includes reading, math, time and space awareness, word recognition, letter and number writing, it incorporates the Janice Center difference: a healthy mix of art, music, dance, yoga, stretching, tumbling and more.

The Janice Center will host weekly Tai Chi classes on Wednesdays from 5:30-6:30 p.m. A low-impact activity suitable for all ages, tai chi is a series of slow, gentle movements learned in sequence. Once the movements are learned, it can be practiced anytime.

Instructor Lenny Friedland has been teaching tai chi in New York City since 1999 and in Hortonville and Narrowsburg over the past few years. He is the senior instructor in the NYC branch of Long River Tai Chi Circle. Students who have taken Lenny's classes praise his "calm and patient" teaching style as well as his precision and humor.

Call 887-3056 or email Lenny@LongRiverTaichi.com to register.

Busses from Sullivan West Elementary and High Schools stop directly in front of The Janice Center everyday.

Just let the authorities at the school know they will be taking the bus to The Janice Center and they\'re all set. If they have to wait any amount of time for their class or lesson to begin, we have a waiting room and also a common area where they can sit an do homework. Also we provide snacks and water. We will always be here until your child is picked up after the class or lesson -- they will never be left alone.
