AIMS Winter Classes by Category

AIMS is offering more classes than ever before and we thought it might be helpful to determine what classes fit your needs best if we categorized them. Each class title is a link to our web site, where you can find more information about that offering. Please note this is NOT our entire roster of classes for the year, but rather just Winter 2018 and we continue to add more.
