Artshop Let's Move! Spring/Summer 2026 Session 1 brings an approachable, high-energy arts movement class to Midland, Michigan, at 5501 Jefferson Ave, Midland, MI 48640, USA. Over six Thursdays from May 7 to June 11, instructor Katie Morey leads a one-hour program that blends dance, fitness games, and adaptive movement for people of all ages and abilities. Designed to keep exercise joyful rather than punitive, the session welcomes participants who use mobility aids and those supported by Medicaid's Community Living Support budget, and preregistration is required.
The class is staged inside Artshop, configured as an accessible studio that emphasizes play-based exercise, social connection, and creative expression. Key features include guided dance sequences, cooperative fitness games, and short movement drills tuned to different ability levels. Group size is capped at 12 to preserve instructor attention and create a safe, social environment. Unique to this offering is its explicit accessibility focus: staff work with participants and caregivers to scale activities so everyone can join the fun.
Practical details are clear: sessions run Thursdays, 10:00–11:00 AM, across six dates; if Midland Public Schools close for weather, Artshop cancels that day's class. Bring a water bottle, comfortable clothing, and any personal assistive devices. Expect gentle cardio, seated and standing options, and opportunities to improvise movement with others. This structure makes the program ideal for families, adults reintroducing themselves to exercise, and people seeking a creative alternative to the gym.
Why this matters in Midland: Artshop extends arts education into practical wellness, turning a community studio at 5501 Jefferson Ave into a place where creativity becomes a tool for inclusion and physical engagement. Katie Morey’s session builds community through play—participants leave with elevated mood, improved coordination, and new social connections rather than just a checklist of calories burned.
For visitors, a single class is a low-commitment way to sample local community life and see how Midland supports inclusive programming. Booking is handled through the provided referral link and requires preregistration. The atmosphere favors curiosity over performance: no dance background required, just a willingness to move, laugh, and try. Whether you’re staying in Midland for a weekend or live nearby, this class is a practical, people-centered way to add movement and cultural connection to your itinerary.
Families and caregivers report that consistent sessions like this can reduce isolation and create predictable weekly rhythms; that stability matters. If you plan to attend, email or call ahead to confirm details, mention mobility needs at registration, and arrive 10–15 minutes early to settle in. Wear layers you can move in, and bring a towel if desired for extra cushioning on studio floors. Small class size and an inclusive philosophy make this one of Midland’s most accessible arts-movement options. Book today.
