I have spent over a year participating in dance classes. These classes helped me establish a balance of activities that are keeping me emotionally and physically strong. I am in my 70s, and I find I’m thriving in Chinatown, meeting very qualified and friendly people to pursue new passions! Life without this center, especially with the challenges of a pandemic, would have been hard. I’m met every day by people who greet me at the front desk and who I’ve come to know as friends. This level of familiarity exists as I move throughout the building, where I feel welcomed and appreciated.
Learning dance is a true highlight of my life. It was fabulous to have an opportunity to showcase my skills with my colleagues. The warmth and encouragement, and patience of the staff at Manny Cantor Center are beyond what a job description could possibly require. I want to say I’m grateful for being part of this wonderful community.
