Hiking - Happy Trails Hiking Club 2025-2026
Hiking
This Hiking Group is for adults wanting to get out in nature, meet some new like-minded people and have fun doing it. We do some elevation, although we do not do "mountain" hiking. We try to keep it light and relatively easy. We do travel and we encourage carpooling, especially on longer trips. We have done trips everywhere from The Great Hill, here in Bow, to Andres Institute of Art in Brooklyn and as far as The Basin near Cannon Mountain. We use TeamReach (an online app) to communicate the when, where and times when cancellation is necessary. Last year we hiked from November through May. We have been known to occasionally stop for lunch after hiking (not a Bow Rec sanctioned activity and optional). This is a social club! Well behaved dogs are permitted but must be kept on leash and you must pick up after them.PLANNED HIKESHooksett to Allenstown from the dog parkTower Hill Pond, AuburnMusquash Conservation Area, LondonderryAndres Instituate Of Art, BrooklineMorse Preserve, AltonHammond Preserve, BowOTHER HIKES BEING CONSIDERED The Brook Walk, MoultonboroughOld Hill Village, HillNorthwood Meadows, NorthwoodJoppa Hill to Pulpit Rock, New BostonKnox Forest, BowShaker Village Trails, CanterburySt. Paul's Trails, Concord**Locations are subject to change or cancellation depending on the attendance, weather or if there are no coordinators available.

The weapons that we will focus on in this first course will be bat, stick, machete, or similar weapon. I will teach you techniques to minimize damage to yourself and maximize damage to your attacker.

However, my courses are completely separate, and do not need to take one in order to take the other.

It may sound intimidating, but for those who find their courage to sign up, you will be surprised at how simple these techniques can be.

Hiking - Happy Trails Hiking Club 2025-2026
Hiking
This Hiking Group is for adults wanting to get out in nature, meet some new like-minded people and have fun doing it. We do some elevation, although we do not do "mountain" hiking. We try to keep it light and relatively easy. We do travel and we encourage carpooling, especially on longer trips. We have done trips everywhere from The Great Hill, here in Bow, to Andres Institute of Art in Brooklyn and as far as The Basin near Cannon Mountain. We use TeamReach (an online app) to communicate the when, where and times when cancellation is necessary. Last year we hiked from November through May. We have been known to occasionally stop for lunch after hiking (not a Bow Rec sanctioned activity and optional). This is a social club! Well behaved dogs are permitted but must be kept on leash and you must pick up after them.PLANNED HIKESHooksett to Allenstown from the dog parkTower Hill Pond, AuburnMusquash Conservation Area, LondonderryAndres Instituate Of Art, BrooklineMorse Preserve, AltonHammond Preserve, BowOTHER HIKES BEING CONSIDERED The Brook Walk, MoultonboroughOld Hill Village, HillNorthwood Meadows, NorthwoodJoppa Hill to Pulpit Rock, New BostonKnox Forest, BowShaker Village Trails, CanterburySt. Paul's Trails, Concord**Locations are subject to change or cancellation depending on the attendance, weather or if there are no coordinators available.

Krav Maga - Martial Arts - Krav Maga - Weapon Defense
Krav Maga ADULTS - Ages 13 and UpLearn to defend yourself and get a good workout at the same time! Krav Maga is a hand-to-hand combat defense system developed by the Israeli military. This martial art focuses on principles that anyone, no matter what their ability, can use to defend themselves in any situation. You will learn several strikes such as a straight punch, groin kick, front kicks, etc. Also, you will learn the techniques and psychology of defending yourself against chokes, kidnappers, knives, etc. This course is perfect for anyone ages 13 years and older who wants to learn how to defend themselves in a safe and fun environment. No previous experience is required, and boxing or MMA gloves are required.KRAV MAGA - WEAPON DEFENSEKrav Maga is a hand-to-hand combat defense system designed to be used by anyone. No matter their size or ability. In this weapon defense course, I will teach you how to defend against a weapon when you don't have a weapon of your own. The weapons that we will focus on in this first course will be bat, stick, machete, or similar weapon. I will teach you techniques to minimize damage to yourself and maximize damage to your attacker. I will also focus on the principles of these techniques, which I believe to be the most important part of a self-defense class because you'll be able to apply them to many situations. This new weapon defense class is the perfect class to pair with our regular Krav Maga class on Monday to get double training in a week. However, my courses are completely separate, and do not need to take one in order to take the other. There is no equipment required for this class.Krav Maga Halloween SeminarHalloween is usually a time full of monsters and ghouls, but when you know how to defend yourself, it gets a lot less frightening. Come to a one time Krav Maga self-defense class that will focus on learning how to defend against those classic horror movie attacks like being choked with a phone cord, stabbed by a masked man, getting your head dunked into a bucket of water, or surprised with a bag over your head. It may sound intimidating, but for those who find their courage to sign up, you will be surprised at how simple these techniques can be. I make sure to create a safe and fun environment to learn about some scary topics, and help you leave class feeling more confident in yourself.INSTRUCTOR: Jessica Barley

This Hiking Group is for adults wanting to get out in nature, meet some new like-minded people and have fun doing it. We do some elevation, although we do not do "mountain" hiking. We try to keep it light and relatively easy. We do travel and we encourage carpooling, especially on longer trips. We have done trips everywhere from The Great Hill, here in Bow, to Andres Institute of Art in Brooklyn and as far as The Basin near Cannon Mountain. We use TeamReach (an online app) to communicate the when, where and times when cancellation is necessary. Last year we hiked from November through May. We have been known to occasionally stop for lunch after hiking (not a Bow Rec sanctioned activity and optional). This is a social club! Well behaved dogs are permitted but must be kept on leash and you must pick up after them.PLANNED HIKESHooksett to Allenstown from the dog parkTower Hill Pond, AuburnMusquash Conservation Area, LondonderryAndres Instituate Of Art, BrooklineMorse Preserve, AltonHammond Preserve, BowOTHER HIKES BEING CONSIDERED The Brook Walk, MoultonboroughOld Hill Village, HillNorthwood Meadows, NorthwoodJoppa Hill to Pulpit Rock, New BostonKnox Forest, BowShaker Village Trails, CanterburySt. Paul's Trails, Concord**Locations are subject to change or cancellation depending on the attendance, weather or if there are no coordinators available.

Krav Maga - Martial Arts - Krav Maga for Adults ages 13 and Up
Krav Maga ADULTS - Ages 13 and UpLearn to defend yourself and get a good workout at the same time! Krav Maga is a hand-to-hand combat defense system developed by the Israeli military. This martial art focuses on principles that anyone, no matter what their ability, can use to defend themselves in any situation. You will learn several strikes such as a straight punch, groin kick, front kicks, etc. Also, you will learn the techniques and psychology of defending yourself against chokes, kidnappers, knives, etc. This course is perfect for anyone ages 13 years and older who wants to learn how to defend themselves in a safe and fun environment. No previous experience is required, and boxing or MMA gloves are required.KRAV MAGA - WEAPON DEFENSEKrav Maga is a hand-to-hand combat defense system designed to be used by anyone. No matter their size or ability. In this weapon defense course, I will teach you how to defend against a weapon when you don't have a weapon of your own. The weapons that we will focus on in this first course will be bat, stick, machete, or similar weapon. I will teach you techniques to minimize damage to yourself and maximize damage to your attacker. I will also focus on the principles of these techniques, which I believe to be the most important part of a self-defense class because you'll be able to apply them to many situations. This new weapon defense class is the perfect class to pair with our regular Krav Maga class on Monday to get double training in a week. However, my courses are completely separate, and do not need to take one in order to take the other. There is no equipment required for this class.Krav Maga Halloween SeminarHalloween is usually a time full of monsters and ghouls, but when you know how to defend yourself, it gets a lot less frightening. Come to a one time Krav Maga self-defense class that will focus on learning how to defend against those classic horror movie attacks like being choked with a phone cord, stabbed by a masked man, getting your head dunked into a bucket of water, or surprised with a bag over your head. It may sound intimidating, but for those who find their courage to sign up, you will be surprised at how simple these techniques can be. I make sure to create a safe and fun environment to learn about some scary topics, and help you leave class feeling more confident in yourself.INSTRUCTOR: Jessica Barley
