Youthful Hearts 50+ exercise classes are held in Marin County, California at the Margaret Todd Senior Center in Novato, and also on Zoom. Unfortunately, after 26 years, I’m no longer teaching at the San Rafael Community Center. Currently, my classes are meeting on Zoom on Mondays and Thursdays each week, and in-person on Tuesdays in Novato, CA. We’re having a great time together!

Taught by Jeanette, virtual on ZoomNo Advanced Dances!
In this rejuvenating, stress-releasing class we focus on learning a variety of popular line dances. You’ll have a lot of fun and get some beneficial exercise. Plus, you’ll develop better memory. For music we use a wide mix of styles, including country, pop and big band. Beginning and intermediate dances are taught with repetition and review. Come meet some great people and breathe new life into your soul! Newcomers of all levels are welcome. Wear soft sole shoes. Please note that this class is more challenging for beginners when done on Zoom because we turn a lot in line dancing. You will not be able to watch Jeanette when you’re facing the left, back, and right walls inside your own home. You may choose to face front the whole time if you like. We still have fun together!
