Traipse back in time through the Centre’s collection of historical artifacts, letting eyes feast on a banquet of oil-patch memorabilia, rig equipment, and models. Or, ensconced in a theatre designed to look like a giant drill bit, visitors can embark on a virtual journey 1,700 meters below the earth’s surface. A cadre of expert guides circulates throughout the exhibits, stopping to answer visitors’ questions such as, “How did oil transform Alberta’s formerly agrarian economy?” and “Does oil really hate water that much?” Guests may also meander through the Canadian Petroleum Hall of Fame, which pays homage to the enormous contributions of 124 petroleum-steeped pioneers and heroes through a series of photos and personal stories. Members of the Leduc #1 drilling crew and Hall of Famers have also been known to put in appearances at the Centre, regaling lucky day-trippers with tales of bygone years and reenactments of their favourite moments in oil’s 374-million-year history.

Back in my day, we got our exercise by strapping bricks to our feet and walking to school (uphill, both ways). Sure, it strengthened our legs and was a great way to convey bricks from one location to another, but believe it or not, it was really no fun at all. These days, kids have much more enjoyable options for keeping fit. One such option is dance classes at Connectivity Dance!

Connectivity Dance aims to give students of all ages and abilities a knowledge of and love for the art of dance. They believe in three things: confidence, discipline, and love. With these ideals in mind, they offer a number of classes, each of which is designed to be developmentally and physically appropriate for a particular age or skill level. Jana Hamilton, owner of Connectivity, has a BFA in dance, has toured with the York Dance Ensemble, completed intensive workshops with the School of Toronto Dance Theatre, trained with a variety of instructors (such as the Edmonton School of Ballet), and has spent the last few years as a dance instructor in the community of Leduc. With that much knowledge and experience, you can be sure that she knows more about dance than most people know about how to properly brush their teeth. Put your child’s dance future in her capable hands and your little munchkin is sure to be a star!

Connectivity Dance supports individual growth and brings out the personal uniqueness in every dancer. Call them today to reserve your child’s place!

At Casa Tango, the team of highly talented and extremely dedicated instructors believe that Argentine tango is a social dance that virtually anyone can learn, independent of previous experience, age and physique. Tango is improvisational and natural, rooted in the traditional style of Buenos Aires Milongas. It is danced with a chest to chest contact, primarily in a close embrace, with simplicity yet elegance, within the music and a total focus on one’s partner. Casa Tango Edmonton is dedicated to promoting Argentine Tango in the Edmonton area by organizing milongas, practicas and lessons. They also host outstanding visiting teachers who conduct valuable workshops. They hope that their passion for tango will become yours too.

In these lessons, the instructors dedicate themselves to teaching you the beautiful language of dancing Argentine Tango. While learning how to dance tango, you will find yourself entering a new dimension of life. Their goal is to promote Argentine Tango as a social dance, with emphasis on leading and following, improvisation, and musicality. To them, a comfortable embrace and a nice feeling are more important than flashy, acrobatic steps (especially if they do not feel good!).

Hone game-saving skills with today’s Groupon to Evolution Golf. Choose between the following options:

  • For $30, you get two hours of virtual golf for up to four people on a weekday between 8 a.m. and 2 p.m. (up to a $63 value, including GST).
  • For $100, you get a four-hour virtual-golf and meal package for up to four people any day of the week (up to a $212.89 value, including GST). The package includes:
    • Four hours of virtual golf (up to a $180 value)
    • One pizza with two toppings (a $13.25 value)
    • One order of nachos with grilled chicken (a $9.50 value)

Golfers enter Evolution Golf’s clubhouse-like atmosphere to hit shots across their choice of 50 different simulated golf courses, including many staples of the PGA tour. Groups of up to four club-swingers, including children accompanied by an adult, can saddle up and ride their golf bags into one of six private simulator rooms. An aboutGolf simulator’s high-speed cameras precisely monitor the power, distance, and backspin of each shot as tiny white spheres lift off from adjustable tees to fly across Pebble Beach’s rugged coastline or roll into holes on St. Andrew’s classic Old Course. The room’s large screen accurately renders fairways, terrain, wind conditions and course hazards. The 18-hole rounds begin with warm-up shots at a simulated driving range and typically take one hour to complete for each person.

Between turns, golfers relax in leather chairs and cast their eyes toward the flat-screen television in each room. Teeth lead heads to the lounge to nibble pizza sprinkled with toppings such as pepperoni and pineapple, and fingers scale a plateful of nachos weighed down with cheese, peppers, salsa, and sour cream. Evolution Golf suggests that players bring their own clubs, grow them from golf balls ahead of time, or call ahead to ensure club rentals are available (an additional $10 fee).

Achieve Your Greatness. Join Sensei Huu Tran on the transforming journey that is the study of Aikido, and discover new aspects to yourself you never thought possible. With over 25 years of martial arts teaching experience, Sensei Tran is passionate about bringing the gifts of this powerful way of life into your everyday routine. Aikido is a Japanese martial art that emphasizes redirection of force to neutralize attacks. Other martial arts, such as Chinese kung fu, Japanese karate, and Korean taek-won-do emphasize striking to defeat attacks. Aikido, on the other hand, is a grappling art. Instead of punching an attacker, an Aikidoka (Aikido practitioner) dodges an incoming strike, thus robbing it of its force, and then redirects it with a grab, transferring control to the defender. The Aikidoka can release the attacker or safely pin him to the ground using joint locks. Aikido, therefore, allows practitioners to defend themselves without being vicious. In that same non-destructive, harmonious spirit, Aikido also helps you to improve your mental discipline, your physical strength and your flexibility, and helps you reduce your stress at work or school. Training in Aikido will help you lose fat, improve your cardiovascular capacity, build your self-confidence and self-respect, and help you gain respect and compassion for others.

Born in Buenos Aires, Argentine Tango is a social dance that virtually anyone can learn. Regardless of previous experience, age and physique, tango is a fun way to dance and get fit. Based off the traditional style of Milongas, tango is both improvisational and natural, dancing chest to chest primarily in a close embrace. Known for its romance, dramatic poise and distinctive music, tango is a great alternative to modern dances. With today’s deal, learn from the very beginning with 5 lessons and 5 practice sessions. Even for those who believe they have 2 left feet, classes with seasoned teachers are inspiring and full of laughter, as you listen to the beautiful music and flow with elegance on the dance floor. In the beginner lessons, you’ll learn the basic principles of traditional Argentine Tango – from how to balance and embrace, to lead and follow – all completed to the tunes of classic Tango orchestras. Singles or couples are welcome to explore this form of dance, that is an art form in itself. For those who want to further hone balanced bodies, Casa Tango Edmonton also offers a monthly big milonga, giving you the opportunity to put newly honed skills to good use.
