Life can be challenging, and many of us have a tendency to make our load heavier by telling ourselves stories that have us questioning how we measure up: maybe you strive toward for an unreal image of perfection, and generally are harder on yourself than you would be on anyone else. Sound familiar? You are not alone in this!

Come dance with MixxedFit certified instructor Sarah at the Holland Center! MixxedFit® is a people-inspired fitness program that combines explosive dance movements with bodyweight toning. Everything about this dance fitness program is explosive– movements are big, full-out, and our very best! She’ll be teaching the same great moves that she has taught online.

Learn to hold your breath for two minutes! As part of this mini class, We will be teaching basic breath-holding and free-diving techniques on land- no previous swimming experience required. Participants will learn how to hold their breath for extended periods and learn some of the introductory techniques used by freedivers (note that this is not a freediver certification class- contact the Aquatics Club if you would like information about local entities offering official freediving courses).

MIIS Student Council is inviting all MIIS community members to a social plant-friendly lunch in Holland Center Courtyard to celebrate Earth Week.

We hope to see you at this Earth Week’s Thrift and Thrive Clothes Swap where can browse for new clothes, donate old clothes, and hang out with other fellow thrifters! Together we can help reduce waste in the clothing industry!

People are coming to do a beach sweep, participants will the get a discounted surf lesson.

Location: TBD

Manchester City and Liverpool are the two best football teams in England. They are competing in a match that could decide who wins the Premier League! Come enjoy the match with the Middlebury Soccer Club!

By popular request, Swing Dancing will be offered once again at the Holland Center! Join Kevin and his dance partner for another delightful evening of dance. For those who have attended previously, new moves will be taught — no prior experience necessary! No partner or special clothing required either - just come ready to move. Refreshments will be served. Email student.services@middlebury.edu with any questions you may have.

Join Student Council in a community dinner celebrating the significant tradition of Iftar, which is the breaking of the fast for those observing Ramadan. This educational and intercultural exchange event will serve as an opportunity to learn more about the importance of this event that is celebrated across countries, cultures, and religions. (This is not a religious event, and is only intended to highlight the significance of Ramadan across religions and cultures).
