Bring your sense of humor and curiosity to this fun, interactive group that uses music and movement to support brain health for all seniors. The program is built around SPECS—a set of evidence-based practices that promote Social connection, Physical health, Emotional expression, Cognitive stimulation, and Spiritual exploration (in whatever way it’s meaningful to you).
Facilitator Melinda M. Burgard, a NYS Licensed Creative Arts Therapist with a Master’s in Music Therapy from NYU, has over 30 years of experience integrating the arts and brain health. Passionate about lifelong learning, Melinda stays up to date with the latest research on aging and mental wellness.
