Lifelong Learning Program Offered at Buena Vida Estates
TheLifelong Institute For Education: L.I.F.E, is open to residents
and active seniors in Melbourne.
West Melbourne, Florida (January 12, 2011) --- Buena Vida Estates, located in West Melbourne, has recently developed The Lifelong Institute For Education
(LIFE) Program based on the premise that learning should never cease
and to further strengthen Buena Vida’s commitment to providing active
seniors with the tools to successful aging. The LIFE Program is designed
for the active senior adult and includes educational classes and
lectures covering topics such as: computers, finance, creative writing,
local history, spirituality, Tai Chi, dance and art. Most classes are
offered free of charge.
Bruce Rosenblatt, vice president of
sales at Buena Vida, and director of the LIFE Program says, “One of our
creative writing participants is currently writing their ‘life’s story’
guided by LIFE Program instructor and Brevard Community College
professor, Chandler McRee. It’s interesting classes and topics like this
coupled with wonderful instructors that’s creating quite a buzz among
our Program participants.”
Buena Vida offers four learning
sessions throughout the year. The winter session begins on February 1,
2011 and the deadline for registration is January 21, 2011. During the
year, the schedule of classes will change based upon interest and input
received from participants of the LIFE Program.
“There are no
exams or grades, just learning for the joy of learning with friends,
neighbors and peers. Class size is limited, so register early,” adds
Rosenblatt.
For more information and to register for the LIFE Program, please contact Cathy Cunningham at (321) 724-0060, Cathy@BVlifelearning.org. To register on line, go to: www.BVLifelearning.org.
