Update: Brain Fitness on Hold
During the summer, DMCC lost the office space where our Brain Fitness classes were held. We are searching for new space, and as soon as we have it secured, we will resume our program - hopefully in time to finish before the holidays! We will notify those who are currently on our waitlist either by email, mail or phone when the courses resume. If you want to make sure your name is on the list, or if you'd like to be added, please call 858-792-7565 or email
