Storyteller Aparna from Navarasa.

Grandparent’s Week is always special at the Council on Aging. For Grandparent’s Day they were fortunate to have Navarasa Dance Theater come to the Holland Street Center.

Navarasa Dance Theater is a contemporary dance theater company founded in 1991 as “Navarasa Natyalaya” by renowned dancer and choreographer Aparna Sindhoor in Mysore, India, and now located in Somerville.

Aparna will be coming to the Holland Street Center on Thursdays as part of the intergenerational program “Intergenerational Fitness and Fun” with Tufts Educational Day Care Center beginning February 28 at 10:45–11:30 a.m. This program is free and quite enjoyable.

Other intergenerational programs are QiGong on Wednesdays at 1:00 p.m. running through March 27.  Belly Dancing begins on March 12 on Tuesdays at 1:30 p.m. after the regular Belly Dancing class at 12:30 and Fitness and Nutritional Exploration on Fridays from 10:00–10:30 a.m. starting March 1. All programs are free and open to the public. Call the COA at 617-625-600 ext. 2300 for questions or to sign up.
