Dassel-Cokato Community Education continues to offer clogging classes.
Clogging is a fun and social way to exercise your body and your brain. Known as “tap’s rural cousin,” clogging is a style of dance that originated in the Appalachian Mountain area, and was inspired by folks and cultures from many different countries. Students will learn some of the basic clogging steps, and dance to a variety of songs. Beginners are welcome. New steps and dances will be introduced for those who have taken previous clogging classes.Tap shoes or any non-gripping shoes will work. Cut-off socks can also be worn over the front of sneakers to make a pair of non-gripping shoes.
Students are asked to bring tap shoes or non-gripping shoes, face masks and water bottles to class.

Dassel-Cokato Bound Back Project to host Gratitude Bowl class
The DC Bounce Back Project Team is partnering with local artist Jena Levandowski and Dassel-Cokato Community Education to offer a class on creating Gratitude Bowls.
The Gratitude Bowl is a bowl that you connect with. It can be made out of many materials. In this case, it will be made out of stoneware. Learn pottery techniques of pinching and slabbing to create two beautiful bowls you can gift or keep. You will also decorate a third pre-thrown wheel bowl. This bowl can have a printed message inside or can hold a written acknowledgement of the blessings in your life, as well as gems and trinkets. It can be for you or someone else. When shared, the Gratitude Bowl gives you the opportunity to show others how important they are.
Class size is limited. Register at https://bit.ly/DCBBgratitudebowls
