READ AND TELL: GOOD LIT; GOOD LIFE!
Last Wednesday of every month June 29 @ 12:30
Darien Senior Programs 2 Renshaw Road 203-656-7490
Join Kelly Johnson, LCSW of the Center for HOPE/Family Centers, Darien, for a monthly (last Wednesday) literary treat (poem, story, philosophical or inspirational essay) as springboard into sharing from our own stories and concerns. As meetings progress, participants will also be invited (although not obliged) to share their own narratives, spoken or written, biographical or fictional and to share their own truths. We will explore how creativity motivates, comforts, unsettles and keeps us on our toes. We will share the stories which most move and keep us going, the ideas which nurture a good life and help us through tough times. Come listen, interact, share inspiration and have fun!
ELIZABETH HALL INTRODUCES LINE DANCING!
Tuesdays (except every third) @ 12:30
Darien Senior Programs 2 Renshaw Road 203-656-7490
Elizabeth Hall will be leading a class in Line Dancing on Tuesdays. Line dances are very easy to learn, mainly because the steps are straightforward, and you do not have to coordinate your movements with a partner. Line dances also involve repeating a series of steps, so if you get lost, you can easily catch up with the rest of the class. Come enjoy a fabulous mind-body workout while dancing your way to better health! You’ll boost your brain power by improving your memory skills, strengthen your bones without hurting your joints, develop better balance to help prevent falls, and release stress so you feel great! See you on the dance floor!
