Swimming
EHS partners with Asphalt Green to give weekly swimming lessons to our 4th, 5th, and 6th graders.
Yoga
Michael and Julie Wald of Namaste New York continued their partnership with EHS by offering a free yoga series to students, parents, and faculty. Now in its fourth year, this ten-week program builds balance, flexibility, relaxation, and strength.
Self-Defense
The East Harlem School held a series of self defense classes for our 8th grade girls. Over the course of ten sessions, our girls trained with martial arts instructor Steve Arboleda and Head of School Ivan Hageman to develop a sense of physical, mental, and emotional self-awareness to help students tap into the vast potential of the human body. This training helped develop physical integration, dynamic movement, and coordinated strength - all of which amplify the power of an individual, regardless of her physical build.
