Line dancing - Thursdays from 10:30 to 11:30 a.m. 
Line dancing is a form of group dancing where participants perform coordinated movements in rows, following predetermined step sequences. This style of dancing allows each dancer to synchronize with the group while improving their coordination and sense of rhythm. Accessible to all levels, line dancing is ideal for having fun, promoting team spirit, and creating a joyful and dynamic atmosphere.  
 

Qi Gong - Fridays from 11:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. 
This ancient practice combines gentle movements, deep breathing, and positive intention. Qi Gong improves balance, mobility, and vitality, while reducing stress and promoting a calm state of mind. It is particularly beneficial for overall well-being and healthy aging.
