We have exercise options for every fitness level. We’d love to see you at one of our gentle chair yoga or Pilates classes or to try a class to help improve your balance. We offer meditation classes, too: look for us practicing mindfulness together in the garden in the warmer months.

FitMinds is a program designed to help you keep your mind sharp, with lectures, games, and puzzles in a supportive and fun group setting. Java Music Club meetings offer a warm atmosphere where you can connect with others around spirituality or join us for our weekly rabbi lectures and Shabbat services. Don’t miss creative workshops and live entertainment ranging from visiting musicians and dancers to guest speakers and therapy pets!

We also love to get out and explore attractions in and around Thornhill, the GTA, and Toronto. We might take our shuttle bus for shopping, to a casino, picnic, or cultural venue.
