Adult Fencing ClassAges 18+Students will be introduced to learning the skills of attacking and defending with either the foil, epee or sabre. Fencers develop good coordination, balance and flexibility which makes this training an ideal means of keeping fit for all ages and abilities. Our training progression starts with teaching the student footwork and basic fencing moments. Once the student develops a general understanding of these movements, the student is taught a series of fencing drills combined with open fencing with other students to apply the lessons learned. The final stage consists of teaching tactics and strategy for set competitive situations. All equipment will be provided and included in the class fee. Equipment is also available for purchase.

I believe in primarily core-based functional fitness - everyday people training to become stronger and complete daily tasks more comfortably. Being healthy isn’t simply a goal, but a lifestyle. It involves hard work, constant dedication, and the ability to sometimes step outside of your comfort zone. I believe that a fitness plan should reflect all of these aspects. I like to work with people towards making their day-to-day easier and more successful, whether that be training for races and/or sports events, giving them more energy to play

The Butterfly ProjectThe Butterfly Project anticipates approximately 6,000 students from Mecklenburg and five surrounding counties will participate in workshops during the 2015-16 school year. During workshops, students listen to a Holocaust survivor speak, use the Holocaust and its lessons to discuss prejudice, discrimination and stereotyping, visit the Margaret and Lou Schwartz Butterfly Garden and paint a ceramic butterfly in memory of a specific child who perished in the Holocaust.

Levine JCC wants to engage our members in a variety of social action programs within the community. Under the banner of LEVINE JCC

CARES, we will bring our community together to perform Tikkun Olam (repairing the world) and Gemilut Hasadim (acts of loving kindness).

Charlotte Symphony: Music & The HolocaustSponsored by Jill and Ed NewmanThrough live performances, this program teaches about the role music played during the horrors of the Holocaust. An ensemble of Charlotte Symphony musicians, led by principal clarinetist Gene Kavadlo, present a program of music significant during this period in history. Each performance features narration and projected images that explore the Third Reich’s attempt to control art and culture, the role of music and musicians in the concentration camps, and how the European Jewish community refused to be silenced and persevered after the war.Sunday, September 25 • 4-6pmSam Lerner Center for Cultural ArtsTickets: $18; Purchase at LJCC Customer Service Desk
