Girls Club @ Longfellow

Forms

Girls Club @ Longfellow is an NEW and innovative program dedicated to girls ages 10 – 14 years old.
This program is to inspire and guide girls, to help discover themselves and develop the skills, knowledge, confidence and courage they need to consistently make informed life-choices from a place of self-knowledge, self-respect and strength. Most importantly, a young girl should recognize that she is the author of her own path – not by the media, society or anyone else.
Through art, yoga, dance, discussion, writing, swimming, fitness and a variety of other fun and dynamic activities, the girls will be guided to develop tools to successfully navigate issues every girl faces.
This Club has very limited spaces and enrollment is done on a first come, first serve basis. Please call for available spaces and more details. Caroline Donahue (508) 653 4633.
