Spring is right around the corner, and with it come the feelings of hope, renewal, and growth. Whether you’re still working on a resolution, looking to pick up a new hobby, or going full rom-com and trying to impress someone, Sacramento has no shortage of opportunities for you to continue your education.

Check out five ways to be a lifelong learner around the City of Trees.

Have some fun 💃

Pasta Making & Latin Dancing, Various locations | This two-for-one lesson will teach you how to make Sardinian pasta before giving you the skills you need to strut your stuff on the dance floor.

Get creative 🧑‍🏭

Welding Classes, Rossi Sculptural Designs, 1801 20th St., Sacramento | Local artist Gina Rossi instructs you on the safety and techniques you need to get started sculpting your new masterpiece.

Move your body 🥋

Eagle Claw Kung Fu, Sierra 2 Center, 2791 24th St., Sacramento | Work up a sweat while you learn the discipline you’ve been looking for, along with some sweet self-defense moves.

Laugh it up 🎤

Improv Playground: Improv for Everyone, Holistic Light House, 401B Vernon St., Roseville | Discover your inner comedian as you play games like those from the hit show “Whose Line Is It, Anyway?” — there’s no pressure to participate until you’re comfortable, though.

Speak up 🗣️

ICS Italian Language School, Carmichael Italian Center and Museum, 6821 Fair Oaks Blvd., Carmichael | Ciao bella. That’s Italian for “hello, beautiful” — which was our reaction upon finding out you can learn Italian from the Italian Cultural Society of Sacramento.

Resources for winter storms in Sacramento

The weather in Sacramento right now be like... | via GIPHY
It’s raining again Sacramento, which is giving us déjà vu to the start of the year.

Since more wind and rain is in the forecast for today, we thought this would be a good time for a few tips to stay safe during the storm.
  • Monitor the local forecast at the National Weather Service’s website.
  • Refrain from driving and stay indoors, especially at night. If you do travel, check conditions on the CalTrans map beforehand.
  • Do not walk or drive through flooded roadways.
  • Call 911 only for emergencies. Downed trees and street flooding should be reported to 311.
  • Report power outages to SMUD at (888) 456-7683, or PG&E at (800) 743-5002.
Stay safe, Sacramento.
