We play interesting Board Games including Ticket to Ride (multiple versions), Sequence, Azul, and Rails and Sails, not to mention Exploding Kittens and Grass. A fun and relaxing evening to stimulate the brain cells and enjoy some good company.

Recently developed by Age Concern Otago in collaboration with the University of Otago, Aligned To Go is our newest falls prevention exercise class.
Aligned To Go is quite different from the original Steady As You Go as it is designed by a contemporary dancer in association with the University of Otago. It’s much faster than Steady As You Go, and a little longer. It requires participants to do some barefoot walking and parts of it are dance moves.
This class is suitable for seniors who would like something a little faster than Steady As You Go. $3 donation.
Ann looks forward to welcoming you all back to this fun class.
