EasyFor people looking to exercise their minds more than their bodies. There’s minimal walking and not too many stairs.
ModerateThese programs get you on your feet and include activities such as walking up to a mile in a day through a city and standing in a museum for a few hours.
ActiveFor people who enjoy walking as much as two miles a day, perhaps to explore historic neighborhoods or a nature trail.
Moderately ChallengingFor hardy explorers who enjoy a good physical challenge, spending most of their days on the go.
ChallengingGet ready to keep up with our highest-energy group. These demanding — and rewarding — programs are for seasoned outdoor enthusiasts.

Al, Bing And Frank
Al Jolson, Bing Crosby and Frank Sinatra each helped produce a generation of singers and remain vibrant symbols of popular music. Explore the reasons for the immense success of each of these men in his own time with the help of a talented instructor.

From Ragtime To Rock And Roll
Trace roots of modern popular music to ragtime, blues and Latin rhythms. Your dynamic instructor will show you the excitement of syncopation through rhythmic activities and the melodic evolution of this century's music through sing-alongs.

Amish And Mennonite
Who are these "plain people" and why do they live as they do? Discover the origins of the Pennsylvania Dutch and gain a new understanding into these fascinating people. We'll meet members of these groups and explore the quaint Amish countryside.
