BUBBLES ACADEMY ANNOUNCES SUMMER SCHEDULE JUNE 20TH-AUGUST 26th

CHICAGO, IL (June 2005) — Bubbles Academy, 1504 N. Fremont, announces its Summer Schedule, which runs from June 20th-August 26, 2005. Including over 15 types of classes, Bubbles Academy offers educational and inspirational classes for ‘kids of all ages,’ ranging from expectant mothers to newborns, tots, juniors and even the whole family.

Established in 2003 by husband and wife team, Kristine Swano and Gregoire Johnson, Bubbles Academy is committed to inspiring children with positive learning experiences to build self-esteem; nurture an appreciation for different cultures; and develop a respect for the environment. Bubbles Academy offers a wide array of unique and diverse classes for children and their parents, which changes every eight weeks. Bubbles Academy has also become “the” place to host birthday affairs to remember.

Bubbles Academy is located in a sunlit 10,000 square foot studio with 30-foot high ceilings and an enormous photorealistic mural, which has been designed to look like an enchanted indoor meadow. Large video images of birds, bugs and other animals are seamlessly integrated into this imaginative space and are complemented with a surround sound system that brings in echoes of nature, thus completing the illusion of an outdoor paradise…inside!

Highlights from the Summer Schedule:

Body Bubbles™ - Baby + Me Aerobics - Infant through Crawling
With this baby and me aerobics session, moms can learn how to increase the amount of physical exercise in their daily activities with their babies. From baby crunches to squats, get ready to be one mean, lean, mommy machine! Dads are always welcome in all of Bubbles Academy’s classes, but this class is especially great for post-natal moms.




Bubbles and Beyond™ classes for 5-10 years old
In each of these classes children can be movie stars (Bravo Bubbles), practice yoga (Yogini Bubbles) or be painters (Brushin’ Bubbles). Your child will be physically and creatively stretched to all new heights!

World Adventure Summer Camp for 3 -6 years old
This summer our campers will take 10 fantastic adventures to far off places without even leaving Bubbles Academy. We’ll explore global cultures using art, music, drama, movement and yoga. Children will use their imagination muscles just as much as their physical muscles!

Bubbles Academy’s World Adventure Summer Camp starts June 20, 2005 and will be available 9 a.m. to noon on Tuesdays and Thursdays and noon – 3 p.m. on Mondays and Wednesdays. The World Adventure Camp is for children who are 3-6 years of age and they must be potty-trained.
