Lifelong Learning
Life gets better with age!
Learn more about the world around you through the pursuit of knowledge. Improve your quality of life by learning a new skill, attain and maintain a healthy lifestyle through one of our dance or group fitness classes, learn more about art, politics, religion, social issues… the options are endless!
Continuing to learn over the entire course of your life is important. Older adults can benefit significantly from taking on new tasks and learning new skills.
Benefits of lifelong learning for seniors include:
- Improving Cognitive Health
- Increasing Positive Emotions
- Increasing Social Connections
- Keeping Activity Levels Up
