Intro to Curling: Exploring the Boundary Where Granite Meets Ice

SOLD OUT

You've seen that Winter Olympic sport with the rocks and sweeping and yelling, but do you know what's actually going on? Sign up for this 2-hour class with the Atlanta Curling Club and we'll explain everything as you learn step-by-step how to throw a stone and sweep it into the "house." We'll cover sweeping, collisions, why the stone "curls" in the wrong direction and more! Your instructor will teach you about the science behind the game, including why the sport is called "curling" (Hint: SCIENCE) and why they're sweeping the ice so hard. All you need are sneakers and loose fitting clothing. Curling is an adaptable sport for all ages and physical abilities.
