Intro to Digital Art gives GenSpace members a new way to get creative using Procreate.

Members start with the basics—brushes, layers, color, and simple drawing techniques—then build on those skills as they take on more detailed projects and experiment with their own ideas.

Instructor Joe shared, “I like introducing members to new skills and tools they’ve never used before, exposing them to a new form of creativity.”

With plenty of room to try, make mistakes, and explore, the class helps members discover what’s possible when familiar artistic ideas meet a new digital medium.

Zumba Strong brings high energy to GenSpace with a workout powered by music—but unlike traditional Zumba, this class isn’t dance-based.

Members move through squats, lunges, punches, and other bodyweight exercises timed to the beat, creating a full-body workout that keeps the pace moving and the energy up.

With music driving each interval, members can challenge their strength, stamina, and coordination while enjoying the motivation of moving together.

Maryann discovered GenSpace shortly after retiring in May, following more than 18 years working at a car dealership.

After decades focused on work and family, retirement gave her a chance to make more time for herself. Since joining in June, she has become a familiar face in Conversations, Brain Health, fitness, and art.

“I never had time for myself,” she shared. “Now this is my time.”

Just as meaningful as the classes are the friendships she’s built along the way. Maryann says GenSpace has helped her feel more comfortable meeting new people and connecting across different backgrounds.

“In two months, I have more friends than I had in 18 and a half years at work,” she said.

Those friendships now extend beyond GenSpace, with members making plans to go dancing and spend time together outside of class.

For Maryann, retirement has become a chance to try new things, build new relationships, and make space for herself in a way she hadn’t before.

Using Your iPhone helps GenSpace members get more comfortable with the device they use every day.

Offered in partnership with Senior Planet, the class covers practical skills like navigating the touchscreen, finding settings, managing apps, and adjusting privacy and security features.

Members also learn how to recognize common scams, review app permissions, and create stronger passwords—all with plenty of time to practice, ask questions, and explore their own devices.

Step by step, members are building the skills to use their iPhones more confidently and safely.

Latin Dance brings plenty of energy to GenSpace with upbeat music, lively choreography, and a full room of members moving together.

As one of GenSpace’s most popular classes, it gives members the chance to learn new steps, build rhythm and coordination, and enjoy a fun cardio workout along the way.

The combination of music, movement, and group energy makes each class feel less like a workout and more like a celebration.

Memoir Writing gives GenSpace members a chance to turn meaningful life experiences into stories they can share.

In this new class, members read excerpts from published memoirs, explore the writing process, identify moments from their own lives they want to capture, and bring their work to class for supportive feedback.

The workshop format gives everyone a chance to hear different approaches to storytelling, revise their work, and strengthen their own voice.

Whether members are writing for family, for themselves, or simply to see where a memory leads, each story begins with something they already know well: their own experience.

Margaret first came to GenSpace during a major transition in her life after moving to Los Angeles. A doctor encouraged her to visit, and the connection was immediate.

“I fell in love with GenSpace right away,” she shared.

Since then, Margaret has made time for Creative Writing, Brain Games, fitness, and art—interests she once rarely had space to explore. “I never had time for myself,” she said. “This really gave me a new view of, ‘Why am I not taking care of me?’”

Along the way, she has surprised herself by beginning a memoir for her family and learning to paint, something she never imagined herself doing.

Even when family responsibilities require her to scale back her schedule, Margaret is clear about one thing: “I don’t ever want to stop coming.”

Her advice to someone considering GenSpace? “You will be making the best decision in your life.”

In Exploring AI, GenSpace members are getting hands-on with one of today’s most talked-about technologies.

Members learn what artificial intelligence is, where it already shows up in everyday life, and how tools like chatbots can help with tasks like brainstorming, finding information, and answering everyday questions.

The class also makes space for an important part of using AI: knowing when to question the answer. Members practice thinking critically about what they see, protecting personal information, and using new tools with both curiosity and caution.
