Yoga for Seniors classes, sponsored by the Manchester Area Senior Citizens Council, Inc. are held Tuesdays from 9:30 until 11 am at the Manchester United Methodist Church Fellowship Hall. Preregistration is not required. Drop in at the beginning of any class find out what it is all about, and stay for a class. Ten sessions are held during the fall, ten sessions during the winter, and six sessions are held during the spring/summer semester. An average of 19 seniors have been working on strength, flexibility, and balance for a number of years.

Our instructor, Sandy Hines, teaches age-appropriate classes and is very good at helping get the maximum benefit from a pose without doing damage. Information on classes is published in The Trumpeter, the newsletter of the Manchester Area Senior Citizens Council, Inc.

Washtenaw Community College (WCC) offers senior focus classes throughout the county. They are available to all county residents who are 65 years or older.

For as little as $1 a month, you can keep Manchester-focused news coverage alive.
