    Welcome to Variety Village - the team is dedicated to creating a warm, welcoming and safe environment where everyone can participate in a wide range of recreational opportunities regardless of age, ability, background and economic status.

    It is with great pleasure that I introduce to you the programs, camps, events and services available at Variety Village by way of the Fall/Winter 2017/18 Program Guide. This guide will connect you with opportunities for physical activity and ways to stay active through the colder winter months.

    Variety Village offers a wide range of fitness programs such as Zumba, Yoga, cardio, Aquafit and Red Cross swim lessons, to name a few. Our Centre for Inclusive Sport Development hosts opportunities in sport beginning at the grassroots level all the way up to provincial and national competitions. Our competitive teams include track, weightlifting, wheelchair basketball, Taekwondo, swimming, synchronized swimming and Volt Hockey.

    This year, Variety Village has embarked on a capital upgrade project of $2.5 million. This rejuvenation will meet the growing demands for service and will have a profound effect on the community and the 30,000 children and adults it serves annually. Increasing our ability to provide improved accessibility and safety will give members, teams, school groups and the community a sports and recreational facility that continues to be a leader in adapted programming for all abilities.

    I encourage everyone to use this guide to help you connect with others and get involved in our vibrant community.

    INTRODUCING PHYSICAL LITERACY TO YOUR INFANT OR TODDLERParents and children can register for a number of early morning/early afternoon programs in the fieldhouse or pool. The activities are designed to foster social play and connections for children and friendships for the parents. Kids under three years are free.

    GETTING ACTIVE WITH CHILDREN IN MOTIONPrograms for children three to six years of age. In the fieldhouse and in the pool, we introduce children to fundamental movement in an environment that is fun, inclusive and interactive.

    NOT SURE WHICH SPORT YOUR CHILD IS INTERESTED IN PURSUING? As children transition out of our Children in Motion classes and show an interest in sport, Variety Village offers Multi-sport classes on land and Red Cross swim programs in water. These classes introduce, and help to foster, sport skills. Throughout the 11-week program, coaches from our teams will guest teach, introducing simple sport specific skills. This gives children the opportunity to experience each of the sports we offer at Variety Village. For children five years and older.

    INTRODUCTION TO SPORT This program suits children who have mastered basic fundamental movement skills through the Children in Motion and/or Multi-sport classes. If your child has an interest in participating in a specific sport on land or in water, Variety Village offers eight introduction to sport teams including wheelchair basketball, weightlifting, track, swimming, synchronized swimming, Taekwondo and VOLT Hockey.

    Coaches facilitating the programs follow a teaching model that focuses on age, stage and development under the Canadian Sport for Life Long Term Athlete Development Model (LTAD). At this level, children are introduced to the ABCs of sport: agility, balance and coordination, in an environment that is athlete-centered, fun, safe and inclusive. For children five years or older.

    VARIETY VILLAGE ATHLETIC CLUBSYoungsters who have excelled in the grassroots programs and are interested in competition will transition towards the Athletic Clubs, where the focus is on competition following the LTAD model. At this level youngsters are required to commit to year-long training schedules, competitions and camps within the region, province and country. Coaches are certified under the National Coaching Certification Program with years of expertise in their sport.

    Families joining Variety Village demonstrate their commitment to activity and the importance of exercise on a daily basis. Alongside programs available for parents, we offer recreational and aquatics programs for children that create new connections, foster fundamental movement skills and teach basic sport skills. Our goal is to promote physical activity in an environment that is inclusive.
