Fall Clubs are here!
Registration will be open from August 13th to August 30th.
Clubs meet once a week, but not on days that students do not have school or are dismissed early. Club pricing is based on a weekly fee that is dependent on club supply needs and club leaders’ fees. All clubs this session dismiss at 4:30, but you can opt for later pickup at 5:15 for an extra $5 fee per week.
Kindergarten Families: Since kindergarten starts the year a bit later and on an adjusted schedule, we are flexible in offering a prorated rate to only charge for the club meetings students would be able to attend, as long as we are not at capacity for full-session students. Please reach out about arranging limited club meetings - this includes a trial week to try things out, to make sure clubs would be a good fit for your student!
Both full and partial scholarships are available: when registering, select the option to "pay later" via cash or check, and email us at [email protected] to request a scholarship.
Drama: 3-5th grade students participating in Willy Wonka Jr. should not register for Thursday clubs. Registration is separate from clubs, and will be found on it's own tab.

Asheville Kids Yoga + Art — Movement, Mindfulness & Making: Hosted by Asheville Kids Yoga + Art!Through creative movement, mindfulness, and self-expression, this series helps children build mind-body awareness, strength, flexibility, focus, and creativity. Kids explore tools for self-regulation and social-emotional growth while practicing accessible breathing, mindfulness, and relaxation techniques they can carry into everyday life.
We use art to deepen these experiences, exploring a variety of materials and creative processes. Our artwork is inspired by what we discover through yoga, movement, guided visualization, and breathing exercises.
Together, Yoga + Art gives children a playful, supportive space to move, create, connect, and express themselves while exploring the world within and around them.

You will never guess what creations your students will make!
