Introducing Tablet Computers

’This group will pay special attention to Apple iPads and Android O S Tablets and will be suitable for beginners’

The group will meet weekly from September at the Convenors home.

Numbers are limited, so apply as soon as possible.

Meetins; Jan 12 to Mar 30.

Play Reading

Members of the group will be assigned a part at the beginning of the session: with the agreement of group members this may be shuffled about halfway through.

There is a vast collection of titles to consider and I imagine we will concentrate on plays for which the text is crucial; Shaw, Wilde, Ayckbourn, etc.

Suggestions for plays to be read will be welcome. The group will be limited to about 12 members, and occasional absence is acceptable.

Meetins weekly from Jan 12.

Pilates

Hello, I’m Ginny – a Mat 3 Pilates instructor specialising in exercise for older adults.

My focus is on maintaining and/or increasing flexibility & mobility, developing core stability, and building strength & endurance to help you achieve a pain-free, balanced lifestyle.

How the class runs: 15 min warm-up to include all-important balance; 30 min Pilates exercises to strengthen specific muscle groups; 15 min stretch.

Classes are suitable for all levels of experience and fitness (subject to completing a medical questionnaire) and participants must commit to regular attendance.  A decent Pilates/Yoga  mat is essential.

Please bring any equipment you have (e.g. resistance band, small ball, block)

Classes will initially start at 10:45, but may be moved earlier.

This term will run Jan 11 to Apr 05 (Exc Feb 22).

Ukulele

All-comers are welcome to join the Ukulele group – no experience necessary!
We will start with learning a few simple chords and rhythms and use them to play and sing songs.  After we’ve mastered the basics we may increase the level of difficulty but unlikely to rival the Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain.
The group will now meet in the Communal lounge at 22 Pavilion Court, off William Street, Brighton.

German Improvers

We follow a coursebook, though not slavishly, for the basics of vocabulary and grammar.

There will also be regular diversions into various aspects of national life. The accent is on Lernen mit Spaß

Weekly Jan 11 – Apr 05.
