Community Singing

$60

with Patricia Cannon

Calendar Next available session starts Nov 6, 2025 at 6:30 pm, runs for 3 weeks

There is something so positive and uplifting about singing in a group. In fact, there is solid evidence singing is good for your body and mind: reduces stress, increases immunity, plus it just feels good! No need to read music, or have prior experience. Songs are expertly taught call and response, though lyrics and links are provided after each class. Songs are simple yet satisfying, soulful, fun, and uplifting. Your voice, whether timid or strong, is perfect for this class! For more information about Pat, please visit her website: https://brunswicksings.weebly.com/

Social Event Dancing I

$78

with Barbara McGranahan

Calendar Next available session starts Jan 12, 2026 at 7:30 pm, runs for 6 weeks

Do you go to weddings, family and school reunions or planning a cruise and would like to participate when dancing is offered? Maybe you participated in the past and feel a bit rusty with certain dance moves? How about learning basic foxtrot, waltz, and swing (jitterbug) moves and enjoy getting your groove back. Also dance has additional benefits related to active aging such as improving posture, balance, and cognition. Come with a dance partner or solo. The summer social engagements are right around the corner. See you on the dancefloor.

Beginner Line Dancing to Rock/Pop Songs

$30

with Anne Sirois

Calendar Next available session starts Feb 10, 2026 at 6 pm, runs for 3 weeks

This is a beginner/slightly intermediate class that does not increase in difficulty. It focuses on everyone meeting for community and having fun. I choreograph light and easy, short dances to 80’s through current rock/pop songs. We break them down, then rehearse them 3-4 times before doing it to music. We usually get through 4 or 5 dances in one hour. The goal is to experience the basics of line dancing with confidence, relaxation, and joy. *This program runs for 3 weeks on the specified dates.
