The Dartmouth Council on Aging was awarded a grant from the MA Councils on Aging for a new program called Thrive Dartmouth.

Thrive Dartmouth events promote healthy living and community by building meaningful connections with others, according to the council, and will be held monthly in the early evening or during seasonal Saturday mornings.

The program’s next event will be on Saturday, Jan. 11 at the Council on Aging, located at 628 Dartmouth Street.

Vanessa Macdonald Anderson, a yoga teacher, will lead the event, which starts at 10 a.m. and goes until 11:30 a.m. 

This workshop will focus on finding balance as participants pause, reflect and clarify their intentions for the year. Participants should bring their own yoga mats.
