Method of Delivery

AHA! delivers classes in an action oriented style where youth and adults are sharing equally and each participant may explore topics through specially designed awareness games, verbal dialogue, written work, crafts, creative expression, and team building exercises.

Participants have the opportunity to learn through participation, experience, and increased self awareness. They have the opportunity to grow from experiential exercises and personal experiences; the learning that comes from these types of lessons can truly last a lifetime.
