Join us every Wednesday night at Swan Music Hall at 6pm for an unforgettable evening of country and line dancing hosted by the renowned Instructor/DJ Tim Renner. Tim offers expert instruction, teaching one dance and reviewing another each week, ensuring a dynamic experience for both beginners and intermediate dancers. With an inviting atmosphere, open dancing opportunities, and fantastic music, you won't want to miss it! Tickets are only $10, available online or at the door. Come dance with us and embrace the joy of learning new dances! (Short description): Learn the famous Nashville line dance "HonkyTonk" every Wednesday!

Join us for our first seminar of the ninth season, “Longevity: Stage versus Age.”

In a world where age often defines one’s abilities and limitations, this seminar challenges these stereotypes and encourages attendees to embrace the full spectrum of our life’s journey.

We’ll explore the concept that life is often lived in 5 quarters (yes, we said 5 quarters) and unfolds through 18 (or more) different stages. Many of us will have extra time that we didn’t plan for and this “extra” can sometimes challenge conventional thinking about who we are, what we are capable of, and what opportunities and challenges we may get to face or embrace.

Don’t miss this thought-provoking discussion that will serve to set the stage for conversations, seminars, field trips, and workshops held throughout the year.
