      The Senior Center program gives seniors a safe, energetic environment with which to strengthen their social bonds in a community of their peers. Our programs engage seniors in stimulating, educational classes and activities. We partnered with the Town of Danville to provide four on-going exercise classes on Tuesdays<\/strong> (Qigong-Shibashi) and Wednesdays<\/strong> (the other 3 classes) to promote physical and mental fitness and social interactions. These classes are led by Culture to Culture Foundation volunteers and are offered weekly. \u00a0The Town of Danville charges $5 per class for residents and 20% more for non-residents. Participants must\u00a0 signup for a whole session, typically two to four months per session. You can find more information through Danville's Senior Center<\/a> or register at the Activity Guide website<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
