Tai Chi to start soon at Maidstone Sports Hub

Andrew from Birchville

Hi everyone

It is with great pleasure that I can announce my intention to bring my "Not Strictly Tai Chi" classes back home to Upper Hutt

Yesterday I took a look round the new Maidstone Sports Hub and found it to be ideal. They are also interested in adding Tai Chi to the growing selection of other sports that will be there

With excellent parking facilities and wheelchair access, it promises to be a great venue!

My plan is to run classes in blocks of 10 weeks, during school term times, beginning with Term Two (29 April - 27 Sept)

There will be 2 classes per week, and you sign up for the Wednesday or Thursday classes, or for both

Wednesday evenings 7pm - 8pm (Ten Classes in Term Two)
Just $90 for 10 classes if you pay upfront
Or if you want to drop in casually it will be $10 per person per class
By paying upfront you effectively get 1 free class per term
(Yes I know, cheap eh? - You will be getting my 2020 prices!)

Thursday mornings 10am - 11am (Ten Classes in Term Two)
Just $90 for 10 classes if you pay upfront
Or if you want to drop in casually it will be $10 per person per class
By paying upfront you effectively get 1 free class per term
(Yes I know, cheap eh? - You will be getting my 2020 prices!)

Please let me know who is interested

⚠️ DOGS DIE IN HOT CARS. If you love them, don't leave them. ⚠️

The Team from SPCA New Zealand

It's a message we share time and time again, and this year, we're calling on you to help us spread that message further.
Did you know that calls to SPCA about dogs left inside hot cars made up a whopping 11% of all welfare calls last summer? This is a completely preventable issue, and one which is causing hundreds of dogs (often loved pets) to suffer.
Here are some quick facts to share with the dog owners in your life:

👉 The temperature inside a car can heat to over 50°C in less than 15 minutes.
👉 Parking in the shade and cracking windows does little to help on a warm day. Dogs rely on panting to keep cool, which they can't do in a hot car.
👉 This puts dogs at a high risk of heatstroke - a serious condition for dogs, with a mortality rate between 39%-50%.
👉 It is an offence under the Animal Welfare Act to leave a dog in a hot vehicle if they are showing signs of heat stress. You can be fined, and prosecuted.
SPCA has created downloadable resources to help you spread the message even further. Posters, a flyer, and a social media tile can be downloaded from our website here: www.spca.nz...
We encourage you to use these - and ask your local businesses to display the posters if they can. Flyers can be kept in your car and handed out as needed.
This is a community problem, and one we cannot solve alone. Help us to prevent more tragedies this summer by sharing this post.
On behalf of the animals - thank you ❤️
