ASUW Experimental College

Years ago, a friend and I took the Beginning Acting course here, taught by Nils Osmar.
It’s an awesome class, no matter why you’re doing it.
Nils is a compassionate instructor and has been doing this a long time.
Have fun with it.

This review is for the ExCoFit class taught by Jenelle Greninger. I got pretty lazy about exercising over the past year, but ExCoFit has been a great way to get back on the wagon. We meet outside on the UW campus twice a week for 30 minutes each. It’s easy to squeeze into my schedule, but that’s where the «easy» part stops. The classes are short (a little too short, in my opinion), but Jenelle makes the most of them by pushing us to our limits. She’s also kind enough to lend me a mat when I can’t bear to lug mine on my bus commute on top of my school stuff and workout clothes. She adjusts the levels for different abilities and encourages us to push harder without being mean or scary about it. She’ll be offering morning and evening classes on Mon/​Wed again for winter quarter – check it out!

I find the website very cool — ExCo puts the effort to design a new website every quarter! It is 100% that this place is student run, and indeed a little disorganized — but just because of the fact that it is student run and beating the less-​expensive class rate! Gotta keep loving it, and help this non-​profit student organization running for another 50 years! :D
My friend took a exercise dance class with Michelle Badion last quarter, and she loved it! Some instructors have been teaching with ExCo for 30+ years, and they always get 4+ star rating from students :) I feel the price is very worth them! :D
I wanna take that flirting 101 class in summer. wouldn’t that be lovely?

just got the new catalogue. Good classes, although it has really gotten smaller in the past few years! I am going to teach a class next fall. Some of the same instructors are teaching who taugh tfo rmany years: Margaret McAndrew she is great! I loved her ballet class! ! Nils Osmar!
OOPs better make that a 5!

Lifelong learning, gotta love it. I learned German through Experimental College before I went to Germany — actually, just enough to read signs and ask my way around and buy things, but it was really nice to take the class without worrying about a grade. I also took a graphic arts class years ago and love pouring over the catalog when it comes in the mail. I don’t want to be the smartest person in the world, I just want to know everything. Experimental College helps ;-)

When I get bitten by the knowledge bug, this is the place I go to find a class that is informative, creative and fun. No credit for these classes equals no stress and I’m all about keeping stress at a minimum. The EC is always adding new classes and instructors so there’s always something unusual I haven’t tried yet. Taking a class at the Experiemental College helps to chase those winter blues away and keeps my brain from losing too much grey matter.
